How'd you spend your Valentine's Day? I spent mine evicting my ovaries and fallopian tubes from my body to preventatively eliminate my risk of ovarian cancer (which took my mum's life). I'm a bit sore but doing surprisingly well considering that I had surgery to remove organs yesterday.

My coworker keeps stealing my yarn. In her defence it is soft and matches her eyes.

While majestic, sharp-shinned hawks are not the kind of birbs we want at the feeder...

Dice rolling tray number 2 made following instructions by @quiltoni.bsky.social on Quiltoni YouTube channel

Spent the afternoon making folding dice trays out of scrap fabric culled from upholstery fabric samples and fusible interfacing.

I've started on a crochet temperature blanket for 2025 & have finished the first 2 squares - following pattern from Janie Crow www.janiecrow.com/blog/categor...
It is great example of why crochet works better for me than knitting since I get to "finish" individual pieces regularly for dopamine.

Someone in the marketing department was having a lazy day
"We need descriptors for peppermint"
"Okay, refreshing and...uh, minty?"
"Good enough!"

Playing around with a granny square variation that look like little violets. Haven't figured out what I'm doing with them yet but I tend toward this kind of backwards crochet planning.

Any other neurodivergent folx feeling the "I drank too much to keep my masking in place and accidentally let my actual personality shine through at a party" vibes?
I am having to stop myself from sending a bunch of apology messages.

I'd shoved this bag (labelled with my late brother's name) back to the bottom of the box of fabric Xmas bags last year because I couldn't deal with it. It was less of a devastating surprise this year but I think it needs to return to the box. I still can't bring myself to peel off that label.

I've entered my "haunting attics and wailing" era

How do I stop myself from stealing the presents I bought for other people?
I love this hoodie from Wickedly Divine shop on Etsy.

No wonder I'm going through so many peanuts! There's 6 of them showing up for snacks. Stellar's Jays: the attractive but obnoxious jerks of the bird world.

I miss my sweet baby angel every day but things like this make the loss slightly more tolerable.

Working on the components of a crochet project that has been dubbed the magical butthole scarf.

I'm finally over here although not sure I've got the energy for another platform. Regardless, here are some cute cat pics.
