Realtalk — Z is hilarious. This pillow was my birthday present, and I chuffing love it. It was the first thing I saw upon getting downstairs this morning, so both the goodness of the game reference and the matching up to what was going on in the house… hee. It’s also just about the perfect pillow for the few times… Read more »

I’m on to my second go at the enby flag. The first mysteriously made its way onto Smalls’ desk, with a tiny bit of arm bending from my bat’leth. ((forgot to finish)) <3

So yes! Got my cross-stitches that I’ve completed photographed yesterday, then collaged and listed today. I’m worried that people are going to find the price too high, but like, really? It’s a freaking bargain. And if people don’t want to buy these, I can slap them on the wall, which is what Smalls wants me to do with them. Past… Read more »

It took a couple of hours, but my thread binder is organised to current standard. I’ll have to do it all again at some point if I buy more thread, but hopefully this’ll so me for a bit. I’ve also made a point to put a bit of scotch tape at the top of each slot to see if it… Read more »

Poison has taken to napping on the footstool, now that there aren’t things on it. I’d ‘snuck’ over to take pictures, and she woke to yell at me. So instead of just stealth ‘lo, a cat!’, I got a lovely portrait. It was a good first day back to working for me. I’m hoping I can manage the same again… Read more »

I’d gone upstairs earlier to paint my nails, which meant giving Batman lots of pets. I amused myself by accidentally hitting that sweet spot on the head where it looks like the cat’s eyes are rolling back into uber bliss, when it’s just probably skin displacement, but anyways. He appreciated the pets. Past that, mainly just been basking in the… Read more »

Nothing in particular to report, so have a picture of my dusty, patriotic Enderman chilling in a box of business cards. Why not. <3

Oh hey, nothing quite as awesome as being able to spend time with a friend — and more so here in Covid times. My visit across town to pay tribute to a cat and hang out with its owner went beautifully, and we’re both hoping we can make it a more regular thing. Since we’re both immuno-compromised, it means we… Read more »

I have surprised myself with how much progress I’ve made on this particular flag in the past 24 hours. My arms are starting to complain, but like, just now. I guess I’m making good inroads on improving both my speed, and bulking up dem sewing muscles. I think there’s a fair chance that I am going to finish this one… Read more »

Another day/week/random period of time, another flag started. I was torn between doing genderfluid or trans next; I’d actually wanted to do the enby flag, but realised I didn’t have the right purples to pick from. So yanno, ordered another pile of purples. And pinks. And blues. And greens. Etc. *laughs* So that’s a third lot of thread bought in… Read more »
