Check out these drawings by product designer Peter Crawley.

Pretty neat, but average, you say? The drawings suddenly seem a lot cooler when you zoom in and realize that Crawley hand-stitched these using a needle and thread!

Crawley (a Briton) states that a roadtrip across America sparked the idea to begin illustrating this way, though there's no mention of what specifically inspired the idea of using thread. You can check out more of his stuff here.

    This makes my grandmother's embroidery of Little Boy Blue look like it was crafted in the 2011 BC.

    For Disaster Relief Innovations, Watch the Event Planning Industry

    Just as military advances trickle down to the civilian sector, I suspect innovations in disaster relief housing will come from the commercial sector, where there are plenty of people willing to throw money at the problem.
