I love finding new old stock linens. These embroidered linen serviette napkins are still neatly folded in the box from Joseph Horne Co. one of Pittsburgh, PA’s famous, now defunct department stores. Will be listing them later today.
A collection of linen napkins with small embroidered flowers on them. The napkins are filed neatly in the original box.

We had to take this absolute unit to the vet early this week because he wasn’t eating. The treatment course seems to be working and he’s acting his normal slightly obnoxious self. Fingers crossed we resolved the issue. Also he weighs 23 pounds!! We don’t over feed him he’s just like that 😆

I’m not usually a lace girly so it took me a while to research but I’m 99% sure this lace edge handkerchief is all tatted lace? Happy to be corrected if not but wow the intricacy is breaking my brain. It’s up at Reneesance.Etsy.com
A photo of a lace edged handkerchief on a wooden table. A close up of the lacework on a handmade lace handkerchief. The lace technique is tatting which has created a pattern of fine mesh weaving with floral motifs.

I have no patience for embroidery so the idea of stitching literally thousands of tiny daisies with French knit centers boggles my mind. This beauty is currently on the Etsy shop!
A closeup of a white linen tablecloth with a pattern of half inch wide daisy fliers I. Pink and green embroidery floss. Each has a French knot at the center of the daisy. A white linen tablecloth with a twined ribbon pattern in a large oval across the cloth. each ribbon is made of thousands of small embroidered flowers.

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

BODIES OF MAGIC, out Sept 2026: Grey's Anatomy meets A Deadly Education, a mystery set during the final exam week of a magical medical school. (Or: five queer nerds solve a murder and have some feelings.)

Cover design by Jamie Stafford-Hill.

Preorder US: bit.ly/BoM-US
Preorder UK: bit.ly/BoM-UK
A book cover for Bodies of Magic by Freya Markse. A deep blue building with a quadrangle, spires and cloisters fills the lower half of the cover with the title text in gold across it. Behind that, the upper background is grey and stormy with a prominent twisting white design that could be a bare tree rising up from the main tower OR an anatomical diagram of the lungs. Centered above the lung-tree are the words DO NO HARM in stark white. Honestly: a complete banger of a cover. Doesn't it make you want to preorder? Yes, yes it does.

Carson would like to remind you to be a menace this year.

She’s not impressed with my festive bullshit.
A photo with a cat in the foreground sitting on a human’s lap. Her eyes are squinting and she seems unpleased (this is a lie). In the background out of focus is a Christmas tree with multicolored lights, it is reflected in the glass patio door beside it.

Haven’t been posting much but had a good Halloween season of making pirate hats. Still trying to find a good spot in the new house to take photos

Spent pennsic having too much fun to take many photos as usual. One of my favorite bits is the view from my camp’s outdoor shower.
A view looking up into the sky with a circle of treetops surrounding a patch of fluffy white clouds.

Selling a house is the worst process ever and I hate it. I’m fairly immune to stress over most stuff and this has my stomach in knots. Still going to
Pennsic for a few days tho because I neeeed it.

It’s almost pennsic time which means I’m finishing hat commissions at the last minute and not ever getting good photos of them.

We did it, we hosted 6 kids for a backyard birthday party in the swamp heat of this week, while also getting the house painted. Slime was made, t-shirts were tie-dyed, fun was had. I am a sweaty puddle.
A dining table covered with a my little pony plastic table cloth. The table is littered with party napkins and plates and juice boxes as well as an earthenware cup. The cup has wine in it.

I love the cut out leaf motif on this saucy 1940s black wool felt beret.

I would like for wealthy people excited for tax cuts to sign a piece of paper acknowledging that every dollar they get in tax breaks is going to be paid for by someone else…either someone not getting healthcare or SNAP or some future person paying higher taxes to pay the interest on our new debt.

It’s the last day of school and I have had enough time to myself to finish up this extremely silly and shiny hat. This hat is so very shiny and also extremely silly.
A shiny metallic gold pirate hat with a purple grosgrain ribbon trim on the brim edge, purple jacquard trim under the ruffle and a giant gold and purple velvet star that began life as a Christmas ornament and is now the star of this hat. The hat also has purple ostrich feathers and peacock feathers on the side because it needed something extra.

I find it useful sometimes to take a photo of different trim options when I can’t decide. Once I looked at these side by side it was easy to pick the second option.

I did make a new hat which gratifyingly sold the same day I posted it. Love when I find the perfect brooch to finish it off.
