My first quilt is done :) I've never sewn anything before (besides some VERY basic hand-stitching when i was a little kid) so this was a major learning experience lol
I used 5x9" rectangles and made a little checkered pattern. I wasn't following any specific pattern or tutorial, and was more just winging every part of it (and it shows). BUT!! I still think it's cute and cozy and I'm excited about it :)
Progress pics and mistakes under the cut !
This quilt was certainly a process, and being, as i am, extremely lazy, every step I took lacked the precision required to make the quilt all nice. And in all honesty i am 100% okay with that, I don't need it to be anywhere near perfect!
Here are all of my pieces laid out on the floor after i cut them out! I didnt take any pics between that and the top-stitching (no clue if that's what it's called, but where it's all basted and then you sew the patterns that go along the quilt) so we'll skip to then
I managed to sew over my excess fabric AND create insane bunching, both because i wasn't paying any attention to the back of my quilt and was really really lazy with my basting (and this is where i made the seam ripper gif lmao)
I also learned why people buy long-arm machines and shit because oh my godddd this was a pain
Anyway next i cut out my binding strips and checked to see that i had enough, which thankfully i did lmao
My binding is pretty awful, i did it the wrong way and elected not to redo it, and my corners are quite messy, but i really truly just don't care. It's still a very cozy quilt
And then it was done! That's all!!
The process from start to finish took me about two days (started cutting pieces Wednesday night, began sewing Thursday morning, continued sewing until it was all done on Friday evening!)
I got the fabric largely from my friend, who has oh so much of it. I think my choices are pretty dang cute :)
Okay. I think that's all I have to say! Bye now!
#brookie's bullshit#quilts#my art#(i suppose lol)#i think maybe it would be fun to post more of my fiber art. maybe i'll make a side blog who knows!#brookie's crafts

productivity win today:
reorganized a bit in my bathroom, gave some things places in the top of my closets, repotted some plant babies I'd been long propagating, resewed one of the kitties' toys after restuffing and adding catnip, wiped some dusty shelves in my craft room and think I still have some motivation left to keep organizing in here after I eat stoffers meal
it's been a big day for elmo that's for sure
mazie has been helpful in bringing some extra joy with shenanigans alongside brookie
#nat talks#hopefully this isnt too much and leading to a crash of momentum for the week#but it's a short work week so that's nice at least

For the otp questions, can you answer
4, 5, 6, 8, 14, and 30
Hey! Thanks for the questions! From this list
4). Favorite Non Sexual Activity
Brooklyn: Reading on the couch together. Whether it be scripts or books or whatever, Brooklyn will be on one end of the couch while Thomas is on the other end.
Claire: Cooking/Baking while the other stands there watching. Claire will do breakfast and the baking while Ethan does lunch and dinner.
Adelaide: Making crafts with the kids. An example would be a something with their handprints.
Charlie: Playing each other's favorite games. it makes the other one happy and a way for Charlie and Derek to spend time with each other.
5). Who is most likely to carry each other?
Brooklyn: Thomas is more likely to carry Brooklyn
Claire: Ethan is more likely to carry Claire
Adelaide: It's about 50/50
Charlie: Charlie is more likely to carry Derek.
6). What is their favorite feature of their partners?
Brooklyn: His hair.
Claire: His eyes.
Adelaide: His personality.
Charlie: His smile.
8). Nicknames? And if so, How did they Originate?
Brooklyn: Brooke and Brookie were nicknames that were started by her family, while Little Moore was started at school due to most of the teachers she had as a student, also had her sister and brother as students.
Claire: Grace is her middle name and she started going by Grace in HS for a little bit, which made the nickname Gracie. While some people would call her Evans sometimes, Ethan was the first person to use it all the time. And the nickname Air was made by Adelaide when they were in elementary.
Adelaide: Addie was used by friends and family. Adele was because she loves to sing. Add was just because she was the math kid of the family. Little Barnes because of having an older brother and sister. And Sunshine because she smiles as much as possible.
Charlie: Charlie is technically her nickname (since her actual name is Catherine) but she prefers to go by it and it was her oldest sister's idea. Cathy and Kate were childhood alter egos that she made up with her siblings. Catie was a nickname made up by one of her childhood best friends.
14). Who kisses the hardest?
Brooklyn: Brooklyn > Thomas
Claire: Ethan > Claire
Adelaide: Adelaide > Tobias
Charlie: Equal
30). What is one hc about this otp that mends your heart?
Brooklyn: In their older years (after they have retired), Thomas surprises her with a garden of her own.

Esme has fallen asleep leaving 1/3rd of a chocolate cake out on the kitchen island. What does Tyler do? lol
Whats the most amount of animals and kids they've had on their bed at one time?
Have the oldest kids already been roped into mumma's redecorating duties? (painting, etc)
Does Addie have a favorite memory of her and daddy?
Has Tyler ever called out to Esme in his sleep? (good or bad)
How many different sports do TJ and Millie play and has Declan started any sports
Is Kota active like his other brothers or more like Tanner and prefers quiet time?
Is there anything besides meds that Esme has to keep track of for Tyler in relation to his health
What is Esme's favorite pampering thing Tyler does for her
Has Esme ever vetoed anything the kids have asked Tyler to do
He'd help himself to a piece, being mindful of leaving some behind. Especially for her lol. But she has been known to make two birthday cakes on his birthday so he can have one all to himself. He's eaten an entire cake all on his lonesome before lol
They've had five kids in their bed at once. Plus two dogs. By the time Brookie and Kota came around, TJ and Millie were pretty well grown out of wanting to sleep in mom and dad's bed. Tanner sometimes still needs that contact and even Declan. The littles always want to be in there lol
Tanner enjoys helping paint and organizing. Millie is very good at picking out decor and especially matching colours together. TJ stays out of that stuff. But he does help dad lay flooring, hang up shelves, do dry wall.
Definitely the time she had her first real ballet recital and she was all dolled with her hair done and a beautiful little outfit. He was away on a job and didn't think he'd get back in time to see it. And that made her very sad. But when she got up there and looked into the people for mum, daddy was right there too :)
No. Never. He mumbles in his sleep but nothing more than that. Even during the worst nightmares.
TJ plays lacrosse, soccer, football, and rugby. Millie is into her mixed martial arts, Muay Thai (which her dad knows, and Chris has made videos of himself doing) and her competitive surfing. Declan LOVES football and lacrosse. And he's a big, solid kid.
While Kota prefers quiet pursuits like arts and crafts, he does play baseball and soccer :)
She keeps track of his therapy appointments and if he has to see specialists for anything. Like his sight and his hearing and now a neurologist for his cognitive issues
Definitely rubbing her feet. He gives really good foot rubs. Back rubs, but she always complains she ends up pregnant after those ;)
Not yet. LOL. She caved in when it came to quads and dirt bikes and building a skateboard ramp/park LOL

What are three things that were in style when you were in high school? I didn’t follow the trends at all back then so I don’t have a solid idea of what had been in style...I’m guessing Roshes, denim jackets, and ripped jeans. What is one random fact about you? I’m taking up journalism in university. It was what I thought was my passion. Do you spend a lot of time outdoors in the summer? Yeah I try to spend as much time as I can outside, but I still like getting my me time during the summer. What is your favorite summer month? I don’t have one. What do you want to be for Halloween this year? I told Gabie I’ve always wanted us to be Yorkie and Kelly from the Black Mirror episode San Junipero, but idk when that’s gonna happen.
When do you plan to start decorating for fall? We don’t have fall. Every September, do you always wish you were going back to school? We start classes in August, but yeah by the end of July I always seem to be itching to go back to school because I end up missing studying and taking up my required readings. What was your favorite class in high school? All the history classes we took up - Philippine history in freshman year, Asian history in second year, world history in third year. For some reason, the ‘social science class’ designated for senior year was basic economics, so I didn’t enjoy that. Do you have a desk in your room? Nah, it’s a little too crowded. I’ll forever regret calling dibs on my present room when I was 10, back when I thought it was a massive area. ^If so, do you use it as a desk that you sit and work at? Do you have a hope chest? I have no idea what that is. ^If so, what do you keep in it? What's one goal that you have for yourself this year? I didn’t set any goals for myself. A small part of me just wants to make it out alive every year. Do you use a backpack? I used to use a backpack for school but I eventually thought it was too big. I use a canvas bag now. What did your favorite backpack in high school look like? I didn’t have a favorite. My one backpack in high school was black with yellow accents. Have you ever shopped at Limited Too? Nope. ^If yes, what was your favorite thing you owned from there? Do you wear band tees? No. I have one band tee of Paramore that I bought six years ago, but that’s it. I don’t think I ever wore it cause it’s a couple of sizes bigger for me. ^if yes, which one is your favorite? What color is your desk in your room, if you have one? Would you ever want to live in a home with all-white walls and furniture? YES Do you have pajama days often? Nope. What was the last flavor of tea you drank? It was probably lemonade iced tea. What was the last thing you ordered from Starbucks? It was a new item on the pastry menu! It’s called ‘brookie’ lmfao and it was half a dark chocolate macadamia cookie and half brownie. Do you have a favorite barista at Starbucks? No. I go to several branches so I’m not a usual anywhere. What is one thing you're behind on? Maybe TV shows. I tend to stick with the ones I’ve already watched. Do you ever re-arrange your room? No. The last time I did was like four years ago. Do you share a room with anyone? I don’t. I like my own space. Who was your first roommate? My sister, technically. I’ve never had a roommate before because I’ve always lived in our own house. Do you ever talk to your first roommate? What season do you want to get married in? Ideally, winter. But we don’t have that so in the Philippines we tend to just think of months instead of seasons. Do you own a teepee? I do not. Frosting: chocolate or vanilla? Chocolate. Ice cream: chocolate or vanilla? Vanilla, but both suck. Milkshake: chocolate or vanilla? Chocolate. Do you drink protein shakes? Nope. What was the last type of candy you ate? Sour tapes. Do you take birth control pills? I don’t. What was the last craft project you completed? I don’t know; I don’t make them often and only have to if it’s a school project. Do you often start things and not finish them? Lmfaooooooo yes. It’s terrible. I’d be super excited about this thing I want to start out, then get tired of it 2 days later, e.g. the one-photo-a-day project I wanted to do this 2019 and a movies-that-I’ve-seen thread on Twitter. It’s a terrible habit and it would be nice to finish at least one thing. Which is better: starting things or finishing them? Finishing them. Is your style Bohemian at all? Not at all. What is the highest name-brand thing you own? I dunno. Have you ever sold on Poshmark? No. Do you have a Poshmark account? Nope. What color GameBoy did you have as a kid? Purple. It was my cousin’s but I played on it often. What was your favorite GameBoy game? Whatever Pokemon game he had. What was your favorite Backstreet Boys song? I don’t have any. Did you ever wonder what it felt like to get slimed? OMG yes. Vintage Nickelodeon always made me wish I got buckets of slime dumped onto me. Did you ever name a pet after an imaginary friend? No. Have you ever hallucinated? I don’t think so. Do you believe in angels and demons? I like the possibility, but I’m not obsessed. What is holding you back from living your dreams? I’m still figuring everything out. Do you have a paypal account? Nope. Do you like your hair better curly or straight? Wavy.

Malibu Gourmet Food Gifts to Wish Your Loved Ones a Speedy Recovery
If there is anything worse than getting sick, it’s getting sick at this particular moment in time. Adding to the general stress of being sick in the first place is the stress and anxiety of caring for yourself or a loved one at a time where the last thing anybody wants is to get sick. This is why, now more than ever, it is important to be there for your loved ones that get sick, regardless of what they caught. Of course, it may not always be wise for you to be there in person, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t show your love and support in other ways. In fact, we have a collection of Malibu gourmet food gifts for you to wish them a speedy recovery.
Malibu Gourmet Food Gifts
At Malibu Gift, our main goal is to capture all the class, taste, and beauty of Malibu culture in every product. This mission has given way to a gorgeously delicious array of Malibu gourmet food gifts, each unique in their use of familiar flavors to create new experiences. You think you know caramel or chocolate until you try one of the delicious concoctions we have put together here at Malibu Gift. This makes them the perfect gift for someone recovering from illness or looking to indulge in something good while they don’t feel great. Allow us to introduce you to the wonderful findings of our gourmet collection.
Gourmet Milk Chocolate S’Mores
Malibu beach nights by the fire pit are an unforgettable experience and we were determined to capture them in one of our gourmet snack offerings. The warmth of the fire meeting the cool seaside breeze, the company of your loved ones, and the taste of delicious fired up S’Mores are engrained in our minds and we want to share that memory with everyone else. To do so, we’ve created some wonderful S’Mores of our own. With traditional Graham crackers, fluffy marshmallows, and a thick coat of gourmet milk chocolate, we have crafted a reinvention of the S’More that will cater to your refined adult tastes while also evoking those childhood flavors.
Dark Chocolate Graham Cracker Cookies
A great addition to your coffee breaks, snack times, and recovery treats, our dark chocolate Graham cracker cookies are the perfect combination of the familiar and the exciting. After all, each bite brings forth the deliciously traditional taste of Graham crackers while adding onto it the deep, rich taste of gourmet dark chocolate. Once again, we combine the best of the simple delights of childhood, such as crackers, with the more refined and acquired taste of dark chocolate. A packet of these will undeniably cheer up anyone who receives them, particularly if going through a recovery process.
Brookie Cookies Large Tin and Gift Box
Lastly in our collection of Malibu gourmet food gifts to wish someone a speedy recovery, you find our brookie cookies large tin. This delicious tin of hybrid brownie cookies combines the most delightful aspects of both worlds. The texture of cookies and the richness of brownies come together in a single cookie that will lift anyone’s spirits.

I got a message from the fine folks at @nomadbrewingco - "Hey Spooning, can we send you some beer to enjoy and take some pics of?" - I replied "I'm around the corner, how about I come down and try some?" And then I found out on Fridays they do dumplings and, well, they always do beers.⠀ ⠀ I love this place, in the industrial area of Brookie, it's no frills and fine beers. My faves were a Raspberry Beer and a beer that was made with Earl Grey Tea in it. They gave us a decent and delicious selection of dumplings that paired nicely with all the beer. I loved their @budgysmuggler partnered pale ale and discovered they are not only brewing beer around the corner from my house but they are also Australia’s largest craft beer distributors.⠀ ⠀ Check out some of the cans - they are art - the black and white of the guy looking through the window - would happily have the art of that framed and on my wall. I need to return time and time again to try them all, only on Fridays for me of course, because DUMPLINGS!!!⠀ (at Nomad Brewing Co.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5HuyvTFE38/?igshid=9rtyi47wy5i

What's the one color Esme doesn't own?
Is there a color Tyler refuses to wear and why?
Of the older kids, who cares the most about what they wear?
Has Millie ever been seriously injured, and did she try to be tough like her dad?
What is Addy's and Brookie's favorite thing to do together?
When did Tyler realize Millie inherited his talent and how'd it make him feel?
Does Tanner have a favorite book he reads for comfort?
Do any of the kids have a bedtime ritual?
Does Esme ever just look at his body while he sleeps?
Do either Esme or Tyler have a comfort movie?
Thank you!
Esme doesn't really own anything that is earth tones. She is very into colour! Her closet is filled with all kinds of colours and various hues of them. And even in the house, when she decorates she goes for very vibrant touches in decor.
2. Tyler will not wear hot pink. Just nope. He will not do it. He'll wear like pink and perhaps a bit darker, but that's as bold as he goes. Now if it's mixed with something like in a pair of board shorts or one of the party shirts the kids always get him for father's day, then he's okay with it
3. I'd say TJ is starting to be that way. He's starting to realize how popular her is and how attractive others find him. So he's beginning now to be fashion conscious and he knows jeans shows off his butt, and he's very proud of that butt lol
4. She did break her collarbone dirt biking and losing controlling and hitting a tree. And she tried brushing it off and acting like she was just banged up. But mum and dad could tell it was more serious than that. Dad especially can spot the signs of a nasty injury. She's a tough kid that one.
5. Addie and Brookie love two things the most. Making crafts together, and exploring the beach for cool rocks, beach glass, and shells. They also love (despite having their own homes) sleeping together.
6. After only a couple times having her surf with him (on his back), she was ready to try it on her own and showed that she understood how to manipulate the board, respect the ocean and its inhabitants, and handle the waves. She took to it very easily, and was about seven when she really started to really show potential to be great at it. Now she's not even a teen and competing against older kids at competitions. And winning.
7. The Hobbit. And that's all because dad had once promised (as mentioned in Best Part of Me) to take him into town and get him a copy of it. He was five and reading at a much advanced age. So once he got that book, that was it. His dad even lets him read to him. Usually Tyler will work out and forgo the music and Tanner will sit close by and just read out loud
8. Addie. She has to kiss every stuffy and baby she owns lol
9. oh yes. She for sure does. And it's been show in some fics that she'll trace every line of each tattoo, find every scar and blemish etc etc etc. And there's something beautiful about that. To her, his scars are part of him. Even if he's a bit self conscious about them at times.
10. Tyler's comfort 'movie' would be Point Break. For sure. Or even surfing videos on youtube. Esme would go for a sappy romance or a romcom, like Sweet Home Alabama or PS I Love You.
