So excited to get started on this one next! @garethlpowell.bsky.social
The front cover of Gareth L Powell’s book, Future’s Edge. The book is yellow (mostly), showing a human in a uniform, I think, gazing over some very old ruins!- they remind me of the coliseum. The quote on the cover is by Adrian Tchaikovsky, and says “Fierce action, ingenious SF ideas and an intriguing cast of characters. An excellent read.”

My baby will be there to meet him.
A little girl (2 years old) peeks around the corner. A very large male Leonberger dog stands protectively with her. He is gorgeous, and looking right at the camera. There are lace curtains and bookcases in the background.

Made elven bread last week. So good. Two loaves, all gone now.
A cut piece of sweet bread from a regular loaf pan, showing a fine swirl of cardamom and sugar filling. You can’t see it, but there is a light sugar glaze on top of the bread. Yum!

Visible mending projects continue - photo of the latest completed - sashiko jeans repair.
Right leg of jeans showing repair at the knee. The edges of the pants hole are visible, patched with a darker color jean material. Across the hole and the jeans are lines of stitching running up and down. They look a bit like a waterfall of blue stitches running down over the knee and patch.

Beautiful white sting ray swimming left to right across the picture - taken while at the Atlanta Aquarium. The whole picture has a blue cast.

Words for 2025 and beyond.
A slim bracelet - half dark blue leather and half silver. The silver is engraved with the words “be brave.”

I enjoyed every one of these books! Of course there are so many more I would have loved to submit - especially Piranesi. Sorry I missed the poll!

Made this for Thanksgiving. It is absolutely fabulous, not too sweet, a perfect fruit and nut cake. My family devoured it with some Chantilly cream.
A single layer cranberry pecan cake in a glass domed cake cover. The cake is dusted with powdered sugar and is pleasingly dotted with the red cranberries. Very festive for a Thanksgiving dessert!

Left the “intentional rip” and repaired the unintentional ones 🙂
Photo of one leg of a dark blue pair of jeans. There is a rip from seam to seam. Below that rip is a repair of two smaller rips, using white stitching in shashiko style.

I do love a cardigan. Enough to repair and wear. ❤️
A woman standing, looking away from the camera. Focus is on the black cardigan sweater. There are two mends on the sweater - a red heart is woven on the high right shoulder. A square woven patch is beneath the heart, in red, brown, and yellow.

Repairing things to keep clothing out of the landfill - and to reduce clothing costs. So many opportunities to make art 🙂
A snapshot of a grey shirt, focused on the left sleeve in the back. There is a large darker grey patch on the sleeve, and the whole thing is stitched over with gold threaded sashiko stitching.

Max 💙
Max is a gorgeous large silver and white Maine Coon cat, and is looking directly at the camera. His front legs are stretched out across the pillows on the grey sofa, his white paws lined up with each other very properly.
