RAINBOW (Gilbert Baker style)

One towel down! I'm not sure how many to go!

So I am still a very very very new weaver and things don't always turn out how I want. This was my first attempt at "overshot", a weave structure which is meant to have a soft thick weft making fancy patterns over and under a square plain weave background, and it was awful! I got the plain weave maths wrong so it isn't square to begin with, and I got the yarns wrong so despite the coloured cotton being twice as thick as the white cotton it didn't cover it up at all. I hated it!

Tried again with half as many plain weave weft shots, to force the colour to be a little denser even though the plain weave was much further off square, and I still hated it and also it was really hard to keep track of the pattern.

And then something on the loom came loose so I couldn't weave at all and I was so disheartened and also I couldn't figure out what was wrong so I pretended the loom didn't exist for like 2 weeks. It was the brake tension screw and it's fine but for a long time I couldn't even face troubleshooting it. Also I made this warp quite wide which was A Choice(TM) for my first attempt at a new technique and it just made all the fixing harder.

Anyway, problem fixed and I made yet another attempt, this time doubling the weft. And it's working! We're finally getting some solid patterns! It's not perfect but it's workable.

In theory, those ovals were meant to be circles. So after working 1 full motif I started afresh yet again and shortened the pattern a bit. Switched to purple because I was concerned about using up so much pink on these samples.

And!!! It's okay! It's not everything I had hoped for but it's alright to look at and it's alright to weave. So finally, FINALLY I moved on with the rainbow instead of restarting again.

Still experimenting with the pattern a bit, so this particular tea towel won't quite have even stripes, but I like it more and more as I go. It only took like a week of warping and two weeks of suffering and a week of slowly facing the pain and shame. Next project will be anything but overshot, but he only way out is through.

Onwards!

Gilbert Baker's Pride Legacy: an LGBT Legacy Challenge

This Sims 4 challenge is based on Gilbert Baker’s original 8 stripe rainbow pride flag. Baker assigned each stripe a meaning connecting to the LGBT community. Each generation embodies one of these stripes and their meanings. 

Every generation heir must complete their aspiration and reach the top level of their careers. Each heir must wear at least one item of their respective stripe colors at all times. Each heir can be any gender, including trans and nonbinary genders, unless specified otherwise.  Each heir can be any sexuality, unless specified otherwise.  The only rule: the main sim cannot be both cisgender and heterosexual/heteromantic.  You are encouraged to hang the pride flag of your sim’s identity, whatever you decide it is.

For rules in written form, see here.

So I made Pride versions of the flags of the 13 Historic Counties of Wales:

This is the map of Wales with each county flag edited with pride colours! The palette I used was the final Gilbert Baker pride flag which he created before he died. Just for fun and these are free to use with credit.

(Note: several flags are proposed flags, since some counties have not registered official flags yet)

Column 1: Glamorganshire, Cardiganshire, Merionethshire, Montgomeryshire

Column 2: Monmouthshire, Caernarfonshire, Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire, Radnorshire

Column 3: Ynys Môn, Flintshire, Brecknockshire, Denbighshire

Day 30: Original Pride Flag (Gilbert Baker) Bluntnose Sixgill Shark

ID in alt Click for higher quality

I chose to pair this flag with this shark because the bluntnose sixgill shark belongs to the oldest-known shark lineages. The original pride flag -created by Gilbert Baker in 1978 and commissioned by gay activist Harvey Milk- had 8 stripes (pink, red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, indigo, and violet) instead of 6 (pink was removed for fabric shortages, and turquoise to make an even number). Although the 6-stripe version is the most popular and mainstream, I love this version the most, and like the shark, it is the oldest of it's kind.

THIS IS IT!!! Thank you all so much for the kind comments and support (especially on discord)! I loved doing this last year and loved it again this year, although I certainly had a lot more fun. Thank you to the goobers (you know who you are) for providing me with sharks (and for making me do this in the first place). Thanks to anyone who gave shark or flag requests! I hope you saw yourself in at least one of these ❤️
