Last night, I started reading Legend in the Mists. I really enjoyed the first fifty or so pages talking about how to play the game. I still just over 400 pages to read to finish reading the game, and I am looking forward to it.

I know there are good doctors out there, but it still really sucks when you hit a bad one.

Today, I finished one of the two storage boxes that I started this last week. It turned out pretty well, but putting the bottom in was a pain. I have put the majority of my fabric in it.

So, I have a first finished attempt at a book sleeve and dice tray for the project i have been working on.

It was a pita to make the way I ended up, and the corners on it bug me. But I think I can iterate on this to make it easier to make with time.
March 21, 2025 at 3:30 AM
So last night, I finished a prototype of my gaming kit in a lightweight muslin. The only things it doesn't have are the velcro closure for the dice pocket and something to tie it closed.

Now, I need to get some supplies like a heavy canvas for the outside, sew on velcro, and maybe some foam.

I'm very happy to hear this! I have missed Saving Throw Show over the last couple of years.

There's not much I can do to help other than try to boost it.
I'm working on a new show. If you're in the Seattle metro area check out the site below! If you're not near Seattle but want to help there are some behind the scenes roles that could work for remote folx. Some pay! savingthrowshow.com/work for more info!

I love this idea and I hope you can join me!

This is a picture of all the bits of quilted t-shirt sections that I have put together so far. At some point, I need to decide on a shape and size and cut all of these accordingly.
February 6, 2025 at 4:28 AM
It's the weekend, so back to working on my gaming supply transport idea.

This is possibly the closest I have gotten to getting it made. It is still the wrong size, but it is pretty close, and there is one bad cut on one side.

I'm still trying to figure out the best order of stitching.

Today's t-shirt Quilting sewing machine practice. This piece is about the same size as the last one that took two days to put together.

I made fewer tangled stitches, so that is improvement.

Since I haven't had the time to work on a project that is complicated for me, I have been working on quilting some old t-shirts of mine. These are the pictures from yesterday and today

Day two of sewing, new things that I learned today, I need to add more seam allowances and to do a 90 degree turn while sewing.

I still need to work on the order of operations for construction. I also learned more about what the base pattern needs to look like.
January 27, 2025 at 2:06 AM
So this is part of a mock-up of something that has been in my head for a while.

First time using a sewing machine, learning to thread needles, load bobbins, and replace a broken needle.

Next, a better way to cut the fabric fabric straighter, a better order to do the steps and the rest of the idea

The first doodles in years of what I hope to be many more.

I just got back from an annual doctor checkup, nothing much is going on, but i did talk to them about being anxious and depressed. I know what i am feeling isn't nearly as much as others, but they suggested I add something creative to my current exercise routine.

My wife has been obsessed with the idea of doing a temperature blanket this year, and it is reminding me of something I read for D&D in the 90s about alternate forms of spell books which is making me think about encoding language in fabric and what that would look like. 1/2

I have added Rosetta Stone to Duolingo for learning Spanish.

I am finding that they do different things well, so I hope they will work well together.

I will say that Duolingo seems to have gone down in quality over the time that I have used it.

Over the last several days, I have been reading Scions of the Dark Goddess by Shadow Lands. Visually, it is quite different from other Call of Cthulhu scenarios that I have read. I don't know if that is because it is set in the modern era or if this is the publishers style, but I do like it.
