Blessed pocket look how clean this is! I think the 1cm extra tab seam trick thing was something I picked up in a Sarah Spaceman video, but can't remember annoyingly.
The other seams on the trouser leg are cursed with my machine's horrendous tension that I'm still battling. At some point I'll win.

Hehe so mental crisis over and a glove is made! Not what I originally envisioned for Illumise gloves, but I'm so pleased with the results (can I pick fabric or what? It shines amazingly!!)
Some embroidery and applique yet to be done, but I'm getting back into the rhythm!

Some people have dates and loved ones on Valentines.
I have an audiology appointment where I'm reminded there's no cure or treatment for tinnitus, and where I realise that this is the best most regular medical care I get. For the mildest condition I deal with.
NHS my love

☆Its cry sounds like an incantation. It is said the cry may rarely be imbued with happiness-giving power.☆
Finally did a shoot for Mismagius, so pleased with the results! Definitely worth shivering outside for.

Glove beginnings! I'm using this pretty gold thread to embroider floral and bug themed designs. It's going to take forever, but it'll be so nice once it's done!
Apparently I am obsessed with making gloves which are far too intricately decorated...

It is my birthday. I made cupcakes with eyes tacked on top of them using pink icing, and put cherry preserves in the middle to mimic blood. This way when you eat the cupcakes you consume a soul to allow your own to persist.
I am a normal 20-something year old I promise

Also yes, while UK based I post often in the middle of the night. This is because in order to play TTRPGs I play online with USA Yanks and must adhere to their work schedules
The game I run is on UK time and it's great and fun (someone on here please ask me about my Monsterhearts idiots)

Sequins are fiddlier to sew with like this, but the shape works up quicker! (This will be the Bug Type symbol!)

LOOK AT MY FRENCH SEAM. 1/4 INCH. PERFECTION. Also this fabric is so nice I can't believe I got it in a scrap bin.
I'm making a seaweed themed dress for a selkie costume I want to be able to wear! (No, not the type of dress - the Scottish folklore creature). As a marine scientist, I really should!
