Ran out of time with both of these projects… but I had fun 🖤.

Finally snagged some good photos of my Qimir/The Stranger cosplay.

My spouse and friend helped me 3d print the mask and I stitched the kimono and Hakama, painted the mask, and made the foam arm bracer. All made over 6 days 😭.

I need to size these up for a perfect fit but behold what is likely my new favorite pattern 😇.

Happy #caturday 😻, my sleepy helpers. #cats #sewingbuddy

Good Morning to these Valentine’s Day trunk hose I’m working on. I’m already obsessed and I’m only halfway through.

2025 goals: Community Garden, or at very least learning how to home garden to share with others.

Photos are of my grandparent’s backyard garden on Lomo Color Negative 400 film using my Canon AE1 Program.

ICE director Tom Homan is complaining that Know Your Rights campaigns are making it harder to round up immigrants, telling CNN that in Chicago “they’ve been educated on how to defy ICE.” @rebeccaburns.bsky.social and I met with those gumming up the works of Trump’s mass deportation machine.

Relatable to most of my fabric purchasing attempts.

Hi 🦋, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Lindsey, you can call me Thistle🖤. They/Them/Fae but I’ll answer to anything.

I 💖 sewing, reading, and amateur film photography. W/ lots of hyper focus fandom interest thrown in for fun. ✨

I have been in such a creative slump since early December. I suppose that’s normal when work isn’t balancing, dealing with loss of a family member, and day to day life just continues on. Might as well add in the horrors that keep persisting. 😠😤 I’m claiming this weekend for crafting ONLY.
