Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Mission accomplished One hand filming is hard. But not one hand buttonhole sewing on the REECE101!! 7273
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 30/09/2026There’s no way this Sherrod Brown ad is a real ad. No way. No WAY. 283
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 28/09/2026It definitely makes a prettier stitch with thinner thread at the moment. (This is some rad vintage black silk I picked up in Toronto) But I’m gonna be running some heavy yarn through her so me gotta learn how to make those adjustments. 2152
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 28/09/2026It’s rather close. Short trip to Ace Hardware in the morrow. And a quick class on how to make stitch size adjustments. I think the main issue is coming from what’s called the “spreader” assembly and getting my tensions set better. 6282
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Now imagine this at 1600rmp..I think I twisted the belt around 1/2 a turn.. 110
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Gonna swap my current motor. Having a modern servo on it is nice and all, but I can’t get the one I got to stay constantly on, so 800lb clutch motor it is. I ran it twice, threaded, and broke my top thread. I’ll sort the motor and try again. 1211
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Ok- The By Any Means premier drip is sorted. I’m gonna make high waisted double pleated wide leg pants out of the sand colored fabric. It’s a Japanese slub 9oz cotton sateen. Then a cropped camp shirt with pearl buttons from the pink raw silk. And the hat of course. TBC… 6442
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Estate sale find of the year. Thankfully I google imaged it before I made the camp shirt of my dreams out of it. 4362
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 21/08/2026It’s coming along quite nice!! The belts come today, and then I’ll map out the channel for them on the table. Once the main drive belts are installed, I’ll know how much clearance I have for the motor, and where to put that moving quite well though so far. 2401
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 05/08/2026And the masterpiece were the pants I made for my costar Chase. A younger actor, 22, who gave us all the enthusiasm we needed to make it through. So I made him some carpenter pants in raw cotton denim and had our super talented crew paint on them in the style of Senior Chords. He cried…they fit PERF! 0231
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I made our first AD Liza a pair of work pants. She’s an active young genius from South Africa so I wanted to make her something she can climb a mountain in. I went with the Leila Makes pants that are real popular on Etsy..dope pattern I must say. I fully bound the inside seams…oops. FANCY. 1231
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I made some jeans for Coby Bell who plays my ride or die. I gotta get a pick of him rocking them, they look gooooood on him. He is a big dude and has a hard time finding nice denim that fit his quads. So I made some alterations and whipped him a pair. 1170
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I made Erin our onset wardrobe supervisor an oversized shirt from that same smock denim and the lower beige is a real nice linen of the same weight. I like the hint of a clown vibe with the red buttons. Suits her for sure. She’s amazing 1160
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I made a French work smock for my hair queen Francine. It’s in a Japanese hemp denim that comes in at a very light and airy 7oz. Suuuuper soft fabric. Added a few special pockets to fit her scissors and combs.. 1180
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I made some of the cast and crew some clothing gifts over the last few months. The first is a sleeveless denim jacket lined in 100% rayon for our makeup tech Joseph. He’s goth so of course it’s black. I hadn’t finished when I took this pic, and the back has a killer deep vent down the middle. 5421
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Merle is his brother. Slightly older by I think one or two years. He’s the bass player for The Murder Junkies. His hard life living makes the case for an actor ten years his senior possible.. 160
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Quick brag for my son. Fuckers film credits DWARF mine and he’s only been in the union two years- Twisters The Last Showgirl One Battle After Another Odyssey Dune3 The Invite Bunch of Kendrick vids And now he’s on a job that’ll take him to Christmas but I can’t talk about it yet. Smashing it dude! 1684092151
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 30/06/2026You know you’re a crafty bitch based off the fancy things you treat yourself too. I’m a crafty ass bitch. 14863
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 18/06/2026It’s difficult to not enjoy seeing Moscow in a black smoke this morning. Maybe I should just resign to being happy about that and move on? Check the lid of the oil tank at their main refinery hop skipping into freedom. 1336
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Unlocked two new pieces this weekend. I lean toward a more tailored cut for my pants and tops, but it’s a tad brutal as we enter the summer heat to have even natural fibers close to the skin. So I loosened up some patterns for the summer fit! 4620
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I got a little obsessed so I didn’t touch my phone for a few days…here’s the progress and final result!! I’m gonna make another outta rad denim tomorrow. This jacket bumps. 3440
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 18/05/2026I THINK I figured it out. I’ve had problems with looser wovens pulling through the seams. Particularly when sewing two pieces together that need their seam allowance trimmed and turned. It “seems” shortening the stitch length considerably and going over it twice may solve it. Any pointers? 2141
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Now applying the green canvas to the fusible black woven interfacing. This will give certain areas an extra bit of structure and support. Takes A LOT longer without my industrial boiler iron at home… 1200
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 04/05/2026There is a running trend of mine for having the most ridiculous drivers license photos the person running the camera at the DMV will let me take. Renewing while playing a sociopath might be a step too far. 8682
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Oh, those are my jeans too..19oz Japanese with a rainbow wool randomly woven into the weft. 5390
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Flat felled arm holes..thems ain’t FUN but worth the effort and time, fishtailed buttonholes on the pocket flaps and cuffs 1150
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 22/04/2026New machine ROCKS!! I won’t have my buttonholer running till I get back to Georgia, so it’s still handstiched world for me, but I LOVE sewing on the HD9. 6522
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 19/04/2026Is it the one with a brownish textured body, and silver details? If so, I’ve got one and it’s fantastic. It’s pretty powerful and the foot lift is high enough for most projects. It’s a beautiful stitch too. All I needed to do was replace the rubber on the motor that turned the flywheel. $10.. 210
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 18/04/2026In the wise words of Stewart Smalley “I good enough, I’m smart enough, and doggon it, people like me. I deserve good things and I’m entitled to happiness.” 4782
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 11/04/2026That monster is heavy. 179lbs to be exact. The Reece 101 is a keyhole Chainstitch buttonhole machine. All it does is make BEAUTIFUL eyelet shaped buttonholes. No one has been able to replicate the precision it puts out. It’s the holy grail of workwear and even fit for fine suiting. And it’s MINE!! 3390
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 03/04/2026These are the top military brass forced into resignation by Hegseth, add to it the top Army brass forced out today for no given reason. It can be assumed that the knowledge is spread down the line deep, be this is a shit ton of military intellect forced out by a weekend morning news personality. 1227395
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 28/03/2026That feeling when you build your hifi setup more than ten years ago off old shit everyone passed up and it all becomes the shit you can’t afford today… 3401
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 24/03/2026This was what I treated myself to for a days good work. Fricken RAD collection. And unfortunately they have books that focus on hardware, formal wear, seasonal wear…it’s gonna be trouble. 1281
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 24/03/2026The kinda morning when after a night on your sons couch, your grandson wakes up at 5am and you get to show him BFG while the young adults catch some more Z’s… 2541
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Death may have taken him, but I know from reliable sources, he never paid taxes. Still the myth. 1120
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 07/03/2026My son has succeeded in become one of Hollywoods sought after true film specialists in 600 (camera union). His credits are hyper impressive and continues to grow. He worked on Harry Styles new video, who he couldn’t speak more fondly of BTW, and sent me this last night. The video is GOOD!! 5801
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 05/03/2026The entire package of Deftones newest release, Private Music, is just fantastic. The album itself of course, but the artwork and pressing of the vinyl is really special. 1210
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 03/03/2026Do they not know the airspace is closed for the entire region, or do they not care? Notice how Israel and Palestinian territory is listed as a single country? 3161
Ethan Embry @ethanembry.bsky.social · 27/02/2026If ya couldn’t tell by looking at me, I had fun last night. 11821
