found this abandoned quilt top while cleaning and had to finish it up finally. screen printed and sewn last semester and finally quilted and bound yesterday. using holographic foils to emulate the glassy appearance of diatoms under the microscope, i sewed a log cabin pattern as a playful nod to the idea that diatoms live in tiny glass houses.

Didymium clavus aka tiny cookies covered in powdered sugar

And here's a size reference of the specimen (they are the tiny white dots, if it's not obvious):

'Diatom' ~ Diatoms are microscopic algae that are responsible for 50% of the oxygen we breath. Commercial use of 'diatomite' is used in dynamite and to help stabilize nitroglycerin. I think they just look cool. This one is 21" x 13 1/2" and is carved in Sapele wood.

Out of all the described wasps species, about 70% or more are parasitoids, most of them can't even sting! There are some Ichneumonid wasps that can "sting" with their short, stalky ovipositors, but the pain is mild and subsides fairly quickly. The other 30% or less are the Aculeates, which are the stinging ants, bees and wasps. I figured it was time to finally draw a Trichogrammatid wasp, this one being Oligosita (possibly O. sanguinea). At barely 0.5mm long, she is extremely tiny. She is a parasitoid of tiny insect eggs such as armoured scale insects and gall midges. Other Oligosita spp. target a range of other eggs, like Hemipterans and also some Dipterans and Coleopterans. Trichogrammatid wasps are widely used for biocontrol. It's amazing how such tiny wasps can be so incredibly patterned and detailed.
