Someday you want to hide from the world in a blanket fort and color, others you kinda want to grab a big bucket of popcorn and tune in. Not sure which it'll be today.

This executive order requires RealID to vote, specifically. Regular licenses won't work

Only 61.2% of license holders currently have RealID

If you're not one of them, get your ID NOW. NOW. TODAY. Because this will likely not be the last thing you'll need one for

#biscornu stitching is complete on this day of the equinox! Now all I need to do is stitch it together 😬 and hope it comes out well enough to gift at the retreat next weekend. Stay tuned!

Baby's first #biscornu! Work in progress. This will be a gift exchange for a #crossstitch retreat at the end of the month. Hoping to manage to put it into something actually giftable despite not being able to sew ;)

I have some good tutorials I'm hoping will help!

I've pushed myself to make significant progress on my current #crossstitch WIP, since it's for an exchange gift at a retreat in about 2 weeks! About 85 stitches left on Daisy Chain.

Wow, just realized I haven't posted my current #crossstitch WIP yet! It's a fun exercise with variegated floss, railroading, & English method.
