This huge picture should be enlarged to see the details. It is of a banquet given by the city in honor of Charles Lindbergh, who was being lionized for his cross-Atlantic flight. The day before he'd been given a ticker tape parade; on June 14, 1927, the city threw this shindig, thought (at the time) to be the biggest and most lavish dinner ever given in New York. For some strange reason, all 3,700 guests were male (there's even one young boy on the far right, third table from front). They polished off 300 gallons of turtle soup, 2,000 pounds of fish, 6,000 pounds of chicken, 800 quarts of ice cream, and 12,000 pieces of cake.
Below is the menu cover from the party. "WE" refers to Lindbergh and his relationship with his plane, the Spirit of St. Louis.

What I love about this menu cover is the handmade lettering. Letraset hadn’t been invented yet. Lines were drawn by hand. This artist had talent. It makes me wonder if the entire cover was completed by one person.
Cocktail. Menu cover. Grand Hotel Stockholm, Sweden 1930.

I was makin myself a potato waffle. And had a fun realization/idea.
I bet that there's at least a small waffle restaurant in Gotham. Look me in the eyes and tell me there isn't a place that sells Spoiler-themed waffles.
Chocolate filled, batter with edible glitter and purple dye, Spoiler Waffles that Stephanie absolutely loves.
#random idea#batman#batman au?#batman au#stephanie brown#I bet they have vigilante waffles- it's like a small restaurant that is entirely waffle themed#There's a nightwing waffle that is COVERED in sprinkles and blueberry syrup & whip cream#A Red Hood waffle with strawberries and pomegranate#A kids Robin waffle that's like those rainbow waffles but robin colors#Waffle sandwiches & waffles with chicken in it#Like entire menu is waffles from breakfast to lunch to desert#Ivy Waffle that's dyed green and has bits of mint and basil & tiny berries#A batman waffle with blackberries#The one time Spoiler manages to drag the vigilantes there and not Batburger goes viral#She's giggling as she orders everyone their own waffle plates#There's a waffle bar and she loves it#No one expects Batman to absolutely SMOTHER his waffle in blueberries and boysenberry syrup#do you see my vision#dc#dcu#prompts?#prompts#In case anyone is wondering a potato waffle is boiling/baking potatoes & mashing them up & forming balls & getting em crispy#in the waffle maker if I am explaining it well lol

Quick question about a quick quilt...
I can finish a lap size rag quilt in less than a week, twin size in about a week, queen size in two weeks. It's three layers of fabric, quilt-as-you-go, minimal piecing, and they are heavy. Excellent for cold weather and folks who like the weight of blankets but not weighted blankets.* These quilts aren't as hot as layers of fabric plus beads/pellets, and they breathe much more effectively. For a heavier rag quilt, it's a layer of denim and two layers of quilting cotton or flannel. I have a rag quilt for myself that's three layers of quilting cotton. My house is drafty and winters are full of rain, which means the cold sinks into your bones with the humidity. My husband keeps stealing my quilt because his man-cave is the coldest room in the house. He doesn't care that it's very feminine colors "because it's warm."
As for why it's called a rag quilt, here's a sample:
The top is the fluffy side with the exposed seams. Instead of a quarter inch seam allowance the seams under the fabric, it's a one inch seam allowance and the seams are exposed. Said seams are then cut at one inch intervals. With every washing, the seams get fuzzier and softer. They're fun to touch and feel really nice. It's also why these must be dried ALONE or all the strings will end up on whatever else is in the dryer. Three layers of fabric also means two rounds in the dryer on high heat (which is why I like using flannel rather than quilting cotton) or one round of high heat and hanging to dry for a couple hours.
The back looks like a more traditional quilt top and is often the side with denim on it if denim is used. The one is three layers of flannel and was a giveaway prize earlier this year, to celebrate meeting a ko-fi goal.
These are a delight to make and excellent for cold winters and drafty homes. Did I mention they're pretty heavy? The one I have, once all folded up, weighs about six pounds, and knocks my husband out within about ten minutes of him laying over himself. It's why I plan on making a rag quilt for him. He keeps stealing mine.
For context regarding prices, these take significantly less time to make. This one, a lap size, took just 14.5 hours, and that included the quilting. A traditional style baby quilt starts at $2125 because I have a lot more cutting and sewing, and I do the quilting by hand (though it will soon change due to soon having a machine I can use on my Cutie frame and do all my quilting on it), and can take 70-80 hours start to finish. I charge $27/hour + cost of materials to come to the final price.
*A PT I know hates weighted blankets because they cause a lot of injuries. People rolling in bed with a weighted blanket on them have ended up in physical therapy because of soft tissue tears. Most especially dangerous for people with EDS and other connective tissue conditions. Other injuries they've seen are from the pockets with the beads/pellets in them tearing open. Pets and small children have been known to choke on those, and folks who are heavy sleepers can also be injured if the pockets near their face tear in their sleep. When the beads/pellets get all over the floor, people fall and end up with serious injuries from that. Not to mention overheating under all of them because the material doesn't breathe well.
#quilt#sewing#handmade#artists on tumblr#commissions open#I need to pay off Cacoa's vet bills (totaling $1400) ASAP so I can hire a plumber before the wet season arrives. Then I can focus on paying#off one of our other debts that will start collecting interest in May 2025. Once those are paid off I can justify purchasing an#XBox Series X for myself and one for my husband. Dragon Age The Veilguard releases on Halloween. I have been looking forward to this#game for ten years. Dragon Age saved my life. When I was at my lowest I would remind myself I cannot play the next game if I'm dead.#I know it's unlikely I'll achieve the goal before Halloween and will just end up watching people play the game on Twitch. A girl can dream#though and this will be mine: pay off enough debt to afford the luxury of having a new console and new game.#Honestly? I have more than earned a long break after all the nearly non-stop quilt making I've done this year. A break is something I very#much need and want but cannot take until I receive at least $3k to cover the cost of Cacoa's bills the plumber and the debt.#I have over $8k worth of merchandise in my shop. Original paintings (two would cover Cacoa's bills the plumber and some of the other#debt) as well as quilts starting at coaster size and going up from there. New work will be added pretty much every week until my#new machine arrives and I begin practicing free motion quilting on it. The practice quilts will be sold at a steep discount and then I'll#really get into finishing quilts on the Cutie frame. The prices for all the quilts I would other finish by hand will drop because I can#get them done much more quickly. the larger quilts will be on the commission menu next year. after lots of practice first.
