Completed the exterior of the corset #handbag. Attaching the base was the most difficult thus far. 😩
I’m modifying the pattern to make the bag fully lined for a more polished look to the non-leather interior. Hoping that goes as planned. 🤞🏻😬 🤞🏻

The more chaotic the world gets, the slower and more tedious my work becomes.
These pieces will eventually become a #handbag. At least that’s the plan in my head. Even though I’ve never before punched or saddle-stitched a damn thing. Because coping. 😬

Given his unjust banning, I am taking up Link's charge and doing Fund Me Fridays in his stead.
If you have funding needs, drop them in the thread below. I'll also be grabbing links that I've missed from previous threads and reposting them.
Today is a good day to meet some people's needs.

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things I’ve seen anyone on this site do.
In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Let me get this straight: Link, a Black user, got banned for calling out the Bluesky CEO for following a racist. That’s not a good look, especially given Bluesky’s historical treatment of Black users here on bluesky.

This is a Black person who has been on Bluesky forever and apparently just got banned for calling Jay transphobic.
We are at the "hurting the mods' feelings is a bannable offense" stage of Jay's meltdown, now

So @spacelawshitpost.me aka Link got banned. I just got text message.
So yeah. We stop saying things are accidents now?
Link of all people?
Apparently Jay said something to him before taking him down. He didn’t even get a chance to reply.
He sent this image.
This is sad.

We have just 15 days to stop the execution of #RobertRoberson, an innocent father on death row in Texas. You can help. Right now call Gov. Greg Abbott and urge him to stop his execution for a crime that never occurred: 737-277-6778. innocenceproject.org/petitions/ca...
