I have no idea what you just said, but sounds like a win to me.

I share my sewing wins on here, seems only right I should share my sewing moments of humiliation:

yesterday I accidentally sewed a greggs vegan sausage roll into the lining of a winter coat whilst mending the pockets

As of 2 weekends ago (when a warm-looking yarn shop tempted me inside on a cold day), knitting is my new passion in life.

Whilst I have knitted before, I'd never made anything beyond featureless squares and rectangles.

These are my two projects.

The picture on the left is a stranded colourwork scarf which I am making in the round. The tension is extremely dodgy. I'm learning a lot. I can't decide which knitting style I prefer or how often to trap floats. The colours are wonderful and I can't wait to wear this.

The picture on the right will be an earflap hat for a baby. I'm quite impressed with myself for managing this so far, as many elements of it are new to me. Following a pattern! Increasing stitches! Using dpns and stitch markers! Wow!

Now that I'm attuned to the wavelength of it, I've been noticing when strangers out in public are wearing hand-knitted items. Every time, I am awestruck by the patience and attention to detail they must have taken. If you have ever knitted anything, give yourself a pat on the back.

Bonus pics of beetroot from my garden. They were roasted and eaten with sourdough flatbreads and hummus and pickled chillies for dinner.

Went to my friend, Tabitha's, workshop for decorating cookies last night! It was so much fun, and I ate so many reject cookies I messed up on. They were delicious.

I couldn't bring myself to eat these ones though (I like them too much), so I sent them with Travis to give to his coworkers lol.

And actually if you're in the Houston area you should check out Tabitha's site. She's always hosting crafty workshops of various kinds!

One of my practice pieces for a larger textile artwork... plus a reminder to myself to just "do it." Today is my birthday and I am doing my best to not ruminate about how much I overthink and hesitate when it comes to art and in life. However, sewing has been a great way for me to push through that phase and deconstruct my perfectionism.

This is made with fabric scraps from some previous projects. It's a form of confetti or crumb quilting, with tulle on the front holding all the bits in. It is also my first time using the self binding technique and I'm proud with how the corners turned out.

I'm excited to show off more sewing and art projects in the upcoming year! 💪

I've been stitching some cicadas lately. This year is going to be a big one for the screaming bugs!

For those interested in making their own cross stitched cicadas, the patterns are available for sale here and here! (Please note: my software skills mean that I had to freehand the AAAAAs rather than place them in the pattern itself, so those are not included in the patterns. This does mean that you can make these little guys uniquely your own and add any sort of scream that you'd like, though!)
