I finished my second quilt! It's for my grandma :)

Like the first quilt I made, I just used charm packs - bundles of pre-cut fabric squares with patterns that go well together.


I used two charm packs (5" squares, not 10") from Fat Quarter Shop. Would recommend! Not expensive, lots of pretty packs, and fast shipping. The light blue and light maroon border and back are just whatever Joann printed cottons, and the binding is plain black cotton.
Using charm packs definitely made this project pretty easy. Just arrange the squares in a pretty pattern and sew them together (well, there are smart ways of doing that, and owning an iron is highly recommended, but whatever). I hand-sewed the binding this time. It was actually way easier and faster than I thought it would be.
#quilting#sewing#crafting#speaks into the void#i need to get pictures of my first quilt#my mom has it stored away somewhere because she doesn't want to use it because it'll get dirty >:(#she should use the nice thing i made!#but maybe she doesn't use it because it reminds her of dad... i made it for him when he was dying in the hospital earlier this year#he did love that thing for the last few weeks of his life at least#and now my grandma is probably dying 🙃#i need to stop making quilts for dying people#my next one is planned for my mom and i don't think she's actively dying yet so hopefully that'll break the trend

VOX, Media Overlord | 1x02 - Radio Killed The Video Star

The Jones Twins have become Yeomen with The Empire! Hooray!

... Oh, okay then. The Bestowers had only just left when The Empire called us back to offer us acolyte titles. That's nice. They must be really impressed with the Jones Boys!!
I think Kwahu is excited about his new psycasts, too

Nooo!!! I forgot they couldn't share a bedroom the way they share a throne room!! Aww, that's sad. I'm sure they enjoyed hanging out and gossiping in their pyjamas every night like teenagers at a slumber party.
Also, this new title of acolyte means I have to draw something genuinely horrifying...

... The Jones Boys wearing shoes!! 😱

Mechi has an array headset now, too, and we'll make one for Kwahu in a little while. We can't have our twin mechanitor acolytes NOT matching, after all!!

#rimworld#gracie plays#A Mechanitor's Message#art#my art#traditional art#rimworld art#unpolished art#slightly more polished art than usual#many new titles#the Jones Boys deserve the royal treatment#I am sad about them not sharing a room any more though#Ah well#at least they got cool new psycasts out of it#and I can draw fun fancy new outfits#so that'll be nice#hopefully we finish our android soon#I wanna draw a new character!!!#have a wonderful day y'all

Gog au niigo for tonights doodle
#I am still deeply stuck in the huh? hwah? stage but I think I at least found a presentation I'm happy with#so ig that's the last gog au post from this blog (I still will reblog upcomming art and tagg them adequately so there is no real loss lmao)#now here comes the usual “man idk” speech#species are still more or less randomly picked. I did settle on only using the owls mentioned in the books (lest I study all 268 owls)#I really like making Mafuyu a sooty owl (cuz the design slaps(objective truth)) Ena as a burrowing owl would be fun#and Mizuki is a short eared owl. Mainly becausen those are the “the eyliner owls” for me...also I like short eared owls#Kanade is a borreal owl because they are noted to have a beautiful song (unless the ger edition made that up (idk this is the idk speech))#for Kanade I thought it would be nice to make her a normal colored owl that turned white due to stress. That'll stay no matter what#Mafuyu will prolly be moon blinking but the drawing doesn't show that and now I'm going to explode (bwagh I'm dead)#whatever sleep for the sleepless (me)#my art#niigo#mafuyu asahina#asahina mafuyu#kanade yoisaki#yoisaki kanade#mizuki akiyama#akiyama mizuki#ena shinonome#shinonome ena#prsk gog au#edit: oh yeah Enas wings are colored because I'm playing with the idea that she paints her feathers to be more interesting?#idk like to visualize her bodyimage issue or to just make her artistic side obvious#project sekai#(I always forget that tagg)

Anyway, """""doodle dump""""
Very quick Modern AU old man Fine cuz someone made me think about it, abandoned project No666 (you can tell where the last ditch effort started and ended) and my take on figuring out "Composition" aka gotta slap down stick figures so I have a visual rep of my idea and won't fucking forget. Some are way cruder than others. But that's my process. Stick figures and letters. Its enough to tell me whether this is an idea worth pursuing or if I need to reconsider the composition.
#wip#? or doodles?#who tf even knows#anyway I'd fuck old man Fine.#oc: fine#sorry bout the stick figures but who knows maybe someone profits from that knowledge#and yes i hate the composition as of now so that'll change#too centered#needs more golden ratio#like yes centered is nice and all but like what if it wasn't#what if it would be dripping imbalance#cuz it should be#also at least 1 of those bitches needs way more screentime#anyway to get back to the original topic#wrinkles and creases are hot thank you#... i'm noticing he basically didn't change whatsoever between modern and bg3 setting safe for some wrinkles and gray hair#and yk what thats so valid of him#both are judgemental pricks skdhsksjdks

#work in progress#sketches#my art#a#qsmp chayanne#missasinfonia#qsmp#have drawn this kind of sketchy bits for like... maybe three scenes so far? like most of the frames for three scenes I mean#there's at least 20 scenes with their own moving bits and stuff so that'll be fun#but this is a nice start! and I really like the song and I like looking at my sillies so it's nice to draw too :)#started going crazy a bit after like two hours of drawing so I'm stopping for now and will continue next week again. Hopefully get another-#-- scene properly sketched out then#In other news I completed a small section (like less than a quarter of a page long) of my thesis and oh the feeling of accomplishment!!#it was a daunting part because I didn't know how to write it out but I did it!! Finally!!#and also had some trouble with translating my thoughts to english so I asked my mom for help and we brainstormed it :D#she's a great help with language stuff; both bc she's like generally good at english and also she's not dyslexic like me so that helps :D

The Rescue - Chp 53 - Still Dealing With The Sting
Good morning my lovelies and lurkers <3
The newest chapter of The Rescue is now live! Christmas and the Holiday season being what it is, I haven't had a ton of time (though, mostly energy has been the problem) to write, but I should still have something to go up in two weeks for you all :)
I hope you all have a lovely day and wonderful weekend! If I can get my ass up on time I'm thinking I'll catch The Boy and The Heron today as a step in helping me wind down a little. Honestly really excited to see it.
Enjoy the reading! Thank you all, as always, so much for the comments and kudos and shares <3 I apologize I haven't been able to respond to all the comments like I want to. My brain is deep in scrambled-egg territory.
Love you all, take care of yourselves and each other as best as you can!
~ Belle

not sure if it means much but I love when your stories (or anything you made really) pops up for me
you have a unique style that has a charm that's hard to describe but that makes your art just so damn enjoyable
so if nothing else, know that there will always be at least one person who'll love what you do
That is so sweet aaa thank you so much-!! ;;w;;
Though the very very few things I wrote on here are so old, I wonder if my writing style still has some resemblance to any of it uh. (especially when put in more active scenes) The reassurance is still very much appreciated either way!
#the cloud can speak oh boi#been real happy about my current approach to my style at least drawing wise so that was really nice to hear#the writing though.. guess it'll be a discovery for anyone that'll wanna give it a go

I managed to get tickets to see Rebecca (in Philly) and Vertigo (in NYC) in the second half of February so like
if I start posting a lot of weird, sad SNM fic around then, it's to be expected. lmao
#gone but not forgotten lmao#also I'll be going to some of the places they were filmed in a few months#so that'll be nice#though uh. obviously we might have to change our trip a bit based on how the fires behave.#but we're mostly going to be driving down highway 1 this time so the first half of the trip should be unaffected at the very least#we were gonna spend a few days in hollywood looking at museums and old theaters but who knows about that now#the national parks we were eyeing still seem okay but... I guess we'll see#part of me is like 'should we stay away so we don't burden already burdened services...?'#and part of me is like 'well in a few months I know local businesses will need money to bounce back so...'#I guess we'll see how it all looks in April/May

Hi! Just popping in to say that you're wonderful! And plz don't feel pressured to change designs that you don't want to, or add details that is too much. Your art is yours, and your wellbeing comes first! Have a nice day/night!
Thank you for your kind intentions, but I didn't ask any (closed) questions on the survey about things that I was unwilling to change~ I have my preferences, but ultimately I do want to please as many people as possible.
These are the facts: NSR has a low amount of merch, fan-made or otherwise. The most substantial things are the plush, but all 3 were limited, and there's only 3 of the 16 main characters (12 if you count 1010 as 1 character). Even including the official stuff, you could probably count on less than one hand every piece of physical merch that has been made for any given character from the game.
My philosophy is this: I already draw whatever I want and post it for free for the enjoyment of the masses. All of my initial designs are already out there, so if I wasn't making them into keychains, then I've already achieved my usual goals when posting art.
But if I'm going to be one of the limited sources of merch, which is to say that I'm making something that people will pay for, then I want it to make the most amount of people happy. For some characters, I will be the only source of merch for them, so it oughtta be the best I can possibly make it.
I promise, I'm not doing anything that completely compromises my desires and/or values, and I will make every design in a way that will make me happy first, and hopefully y'all happy second. Because ultimately, I can't make *everyone* happy, so at the very least I need to make myself happy first and foremost, which I intend to do.
Sometimes it's just a matter of, "How do I do the thing they want, but in a way that pleases me?" Sometimes I can't do it (as was the case with Fyra's guitar), but I want to at least try to meet y'all half-way if I disagree with the masses.
#thanks for the ask!#keychain feedback#i appreciate that y'all value my health and happiness above all else#but the purpose of this project isn't for my happiness outside the intrinsic joy i get from creating things:#the purpose of this project is to provide something which this fandom is lacking but wanting#which is collectible trinkets of their favorite little guys (gender neutral)#if i did ONLY what i wanted to do#then i would have just made kliff for myself and have been done with this already#but this is something that a lot of people wanted so i want to provide what i can#it's not like it's some noble purpose or goal: ultimately i'm only going this far because i'll profit from it. this isn't a charity#but it's also just nice and fun to have a little something of your favorite guy ya know?#but when your favorite guy is a niche character in an already niche fandom that's not so easy to achieve#but since i have the means to make that happen for at least a handful of people#then why not do it in a way that'll make the most people happy?#and sometimes that does mean i'll have to compromise what i want for what the collective wants and that's okay.#that's just the way it is sometimes

in another "it'll pass" era but it goes for literally everything these days
#i still can't get a job but it'll pass#i still have no real hyperfixation except my ocs which isn't fun bc it feels like work that i enjoy. but still work. but that'll pass#the days are sooooooooooo long and my sleep is terrible but autumn will come soon and daylight will get shorter so it'll pass in a few weeks#they're the 3 main things but still there's like nothing right now going on that i'm like. enjoying in the present lol#EXCEPT the golden ratio having 3 puppies rn#the golden ratio will always have my back 💛#god i need a hyperfixation though#hyperfixating on my ocs from this film i'm writing is fun but whenever i think about it there's always ''oh wait i should change that bit''#so it feels like a job i enjoy. but also it would be nice to have a default thought that doesn't require me to do anything about it#i wanna fixate on someone's else media so i don't have to do any of the work#i wonder which one i'll get first. a job or a hyperfixation. in time for autumn#my bet is a job but realistically the way things have been going the past 11-14 months i wouldn't be surprised if i still have neither lol#oh well at least the days will be shorter then#ramble

I think I've finally found a pair of jeans that actually fit
#there's at least one thing that feels a little off with each pair I already had. uncomfy#feeling comfortable enough with how they fit for it to not constantly bother me would be nice and I hope that'll be the case now#shopping for pants is so hard🔫
