By pure luck I was able to get some spools of the legendary swiss saddler thread. It was used by the saddlers contracted by the Swiss Army (till about 1986) for hand sewing the everlasting leather & canvas goods. I possess some of the backpacks and leatherbags which have served years in the military and are now about 60 years old. None of them I seen so far had bad seams. Not by its rugged use, age or storage. So it's a joy to test these deadstock spools and probably work with them in the future. Luckily the thread is still in superb condition and strong. I was not able to break it and it's uncommon to see a linen thead this thick with such a even surface which usually only has the finer Lin cable au Chinois. #deadstock #deadstockthread #swissarmy #saddlery #schaffhausen #genf #schweizer #sattlergarn #corderie #geneve #seaming #leinenzwirn #sattlernaht #sattlerei #garnrollen (hier: Alexander von Bronewski Manufaktur)

Eine feine Handnaht bzw. eine Sattlernaht. Elegant und nahezu unzerstörbar. Wie der Name schon sagt wurde sie für den Umgang mit Pferden verwendet um Steigbügel, Zaumzeug oder Zügel so zu vernähen das der Faden sich keinesfalls von selbst auftrennt. Ein beruhigendes Gefühl hier nicht nur schön zu nähen sondern auch sehr verlässlich. Dies rechtfertigt die zeitaufwändige Fertigung auf lange Sicht gesehen auf alle Fälle. #sattlernaht #sattlerei #zügel #zaumzeug #steigbügel #saddlestitch #bucketbag #gloriabucketbag #bucketbaggloria #beuteltasche #lederbeutel #lederbucketbag #lieblingstasche #ledermanufaktur #lederhandwerk #lederhandwerker (hier: Lindau Bodensee, Bayern, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bniu-vAAr1M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ntfzuntunlee
The world outside the window in a new favourite café, the time of day when I suddenly become restless and inspired, the contrast of the outside tones against the warm light inside.
This year, January was blue.
