Have I showed y’all my latest project?

I made a static, coded by hand (no snippets or builders) website. I even have an rss newsletter so you can stay up to date on the blog. Yay!

Made a promo vid for my next coloring book. Is it lazy? Yes. Is it all I’m willing to do since I’m making an entire fucking coloring book from scratch? Also yes. Seriously, y’all wouldn’t ask your gramma for a fancy promo video for that afghan you’ve been cuddling daily.

Been steady working on my site. It’s growing. Slowly.

Somehow it ended up sardine themed. Started as “I wonder what that would look like” and turned into “that’s adorable. I’m keeping it.”

I don’t recommend viewing it from your 📱. Maybe a tablet, definitely a 💻 or 🖥️.

Original was drawn in 2020. The redraw was done tonight. I’m not settled on the colors yet, but the lineart is nice.

Honestly, I’m glad I redrew this. I was so happy with the original for years, but lately, I felt bad for not liking it anymore.

The coloring page will be available soon. #ocredraw

All the portraits so far.

Olive loaf for bread machine. I wanted a thick crunchy crust for dipping in olive oil, and this worked out perfectly. It’s a little too much liquid, so the center isn’t finished when it first comes out of the machine. That’s why it needs extra baking time, but it also creates a delightful crust.

I love Daniel Levy, like a brother. I wish he was my brother.

I need to add this to my to embroider list. I also need to take my current embroidery off of the rack and put it away because I’m never gonna finish it. And I’m never gonna start this comment project while it’s on there. Sigh.

Painted this last night. It’s tombow markers w acrylic. I copied someone else’s art, but they painted a ref photo, so I’m not worried about it. It’s also different enough that it’s more like I followed the same ref photo. Copying others is part of learning. Don’t be afraid to. Just don’t sell it.

Playing with my markers last night. Remember, the point of making art is playing, not perfection. Do the thing. Waste supplies. Make something. #art #wereallartists

I made a pile of stickers. I really like these acrylic markers. They’re so fun to make things with. #art #stickers #amongus #imposter

I’m watching Hidden Marriage with Boss and Mr. Fang is driving me fucking crazy. Bing clearly likes Yang. But he won’t stop perusing her when it’s very obvious she’s not into him. Yang is persistent as well, but she welcomes his interest modestly. Mr. Fang serves 2nd hand cringe. #cdrama

Finished with the granny square sweater. Yay! I love the way it turned out. And the ribbed knit hem is perfect. If I take the time to style it, I’ll post a better picture. Otherwise this is what you get. Lol 🧶

Almost done. I didn’t have circular knitting needles, so I’m using Tunisian crochet needles to knit a ribbed hem on my sweater. The sizes are close enough that it’s working pretty well. 🧶

Making cherry almond loaf. My mom has taken to making french toast with the bread I make, so I made a special one this week. It’s gorgeous and massive and fully of cherries.

Working on my sweater. I’m thinking of making it a pull over instead of a cardigan, bc 5 blocks wide is too wide. I was going to adjust the size in the armpit instead of adding another row of blocks to the back because the arms need only extra 2-3” and the body needs 4-6”. Works out perfectly. 🧶

Working on the back of my cardigan. 🧶
April 5, 2025 at 6:31 AM
2 sleeves done. Now to figure out the back and the 2 front panels. Hopefully, I don’t have to make more squares. I thought I needed 56, so I made 56, but when laying them out, realized I made either too many or not enough. 🤞 it’s the former. 🧶
April 3, 2025 at 4:55 AM
One sleeve finished. I didn’t buy enough charcoal grey, so I decided to stitch the squares together with the lighter grey. I like it well enough. 🧶

Trying different styles. I really like them. They all have different personalities. We have Elise, Samantha, and Janice, but not the shitty Janice, goth Janice. Yeah.
