I don't know who needs to hear this, but

YOU DO NOT NEED TO START A NEW HOBBY!

STEP AWAY FROM THE TEXTILES!

YOU DON'T NEED MORE YARN!

THAT FABRIC IS NOT CALLING TO YOU! LEAVE IT ALONE!

I wanna show you the coolest thing ever:

My grandma made all of this from scratch and SURPRISED me with it!!!!!

The red is fabric is textured and the edges of the collar actually go up naturally. It doesn’t look real!!!

She even added Oblivion on the zipper pull because she knows that’s my favorite keyblade 🥺

To make things more incredible:

SHE PAINTED EVERY. SINGLE. SQAURE ON. And it looks and feels PRINTED.

I am never taking this thing off. I can never repay my Grandma. 😭😭😭 I have never in my entire life seen a more perfect replica of Roxas’s fit. Everywhere I had looked online they just didn’t look the best. This one looks real, like it was pulled out of the game, and it’s actually so comfortable (I can see why Roxas wears it every day in Twilight Town.) I didn’t use any filters on these photos, the colors are actually that perfect.

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

me: i don’t think martin had a lot of time or money to dedicate to his hobbies, nor do i think he had this many

artist braincell: but like. martin with hobby. prettyyyy

me: damn right you are let’s get this boy some yarn

#tma #the magnus archives #martin blackwood #art ideas #art #ink is thinking #tma hcs #i like to think that martin knits and jon crochets #martin learned from some old how to knit book his mom kept #either belonged to her or some other family member she knew #and jon learned from his grandma bc he watched her do it sometimes and he asked way too many questions #and she didn’t want to deal with that so she just taught him how to crochet #jon and martin fight over yarn #other martin hobbies i think would be neat include #baking #sewing #pottery #growing plants #etc

[ID: a digital drawing of emily from stardew valley. she's sewing at a table and talking to someone off-screen while smiling and blushing. End ID]

She recently sent me a sewing machine I love her... Emily said autistics must support autistics and she's so right.

#stardew valley #stardew valley fanart #stardew valley emily #emily stardew valley #i swear ive seen sewing machines before i just cant remember what they look like from the back and didnt feel like googling #i can even use one!! with grandma supervision bcs my powerful legs try to destroy it #she's changing settings mid sewing bcs i needed somewhere to put her other hand #im still kinda new to stardew but not so new that i dont notice like everyone in that town is autistic #ill need that polyam mod eventually

Finally photographed and listed all the needle booksies!

Available now on my etsy

I really love all the Merchant & Mills sewing accessories, they really fit the vibes here. But also I think it's a cute way to get into sewing/ embroidery/ handiwork. Idk. Just thoughts

A couple of scrap fabric critters I made recently, a lizard and a turtle. It feels like it's been a while since I've made just some simple lil' guys like this, it was nice! <|:3

I did not get much crafting done today because I spent almost my entire lunch break fighting with the healthcare marketplace website* but here’s my next baby quilt wip! I forgot to make my cousin’s next baby a quilt ahead of time and my grandma is sending her crochet blanket in the mail soon so I am making a quick little fisher-price themed quilt (the back is crayola themed)

*aka I forgot my password and had to be on hold for a while to talk to someone who could unlock my account after I locked myself out. Everybody I’ve spoken to on the healthcare marketplace helpline is so nice! Like, you’ll have to hold for a while but once you get past the hold, in my experience they will not hang up until you are successfully into your account and have no more questions. If you are in the US and haven’t tried it yet, it’s open enrollment right now!

#sewing wip #the baby is not due til January #but when grandma sends the baby blanket I send the baby blanket lol #so time to make a quick little quilt #and maybe some baby booties? or a teddy bear or something

another thing i made recently! a heart shaped tote bag ❤️ one of my first projects made on my vintage singer sewing machine. it’s been sitting in storage for a while but i decided to pull it out and get it fixed up and in working order last week and i’ve been teaching myself how to use it since!

this bag was made from salvaged cotton i rescued from the side of the road 🤘
