I'm gonna have to put myself on a fabric buying ban until I've used some of this. I even have projects in mind for a bunch of it. The big pile is mostly large scraps to keep for patterning purposes.

My impression of Switzerland so far is that the cities are much like any other European city, which is neither surprising nor a bad thing necessarily.

Also the Lindt factory museum is actually kinda dull.

At my first card show and already way over paid for at least one of these cards oops

I spent hours handpainting this, and it was one of the best things I've done. It helped that I was unemployed at the time lmao

I know my first game was Portal 2, but I guess that was still a "physical" copy at the time.

I've still never played Mass Effect.

Last weekend I finished the binding for the quilt I was making for my sister and my new nibling. Had a lot of fun with this. Quilting it myself was very challenging, but I love the effect it gives.

I am 100% hooked on making quilts now, but that's okay.

Can't belive the years I have been playing on this dumb website and it's taken me this long to get this

April's quilt block done, after I went to make it last weekend and had forgotten to cut out a bunch of squares for the middle section. Might take a crack at May's tomorrow to get it done nice and early.

If anyone is interested in an Ender 3 printer, let me know! It's in full working order, it's just a little out of date and I'd like to replace it with something ~fancier.

I woke up feeling not so great, then I left my flat and saw a cat and things feel a little better.

I am cat sitting this very sweet bean.

2 cards in a week (ish). Who have I become.
February 23, 2025 at 8:44 PM
Perhaps not the best card I've ever made, but I am still learning to be fair. Followed a video for this one, as coming up with ideas is definitely something I still need to learn, as well as techniques.

Doing a quilt project this year, where I get sent a different block each month. Made both January's and February's at a sewing social day on Sunday, finished up the border on the first one tonight.

I am enjoying making these. It satisfies my intense need to be neat lmao

This is 100% my childhood, but do I want to pay £18 for the pleasure of reliving it for 5 minutes

Doing my silly little crafts to keep the gremlins at bay.

I should post crafty stuff I make here as well. This was a warm up collage. Vaguely dark academia themed I think? I didn't have much of a plan 🖤

And now I am currently working on a mixed media accordion book that I started over Christmas with my mum from an old workshop she had.

Who doesn't love a good cape swish?

Here's a secret, this cape actually zips onto the jacket underneath the shoulder/colllar thing! Makes for a super strong attachment that's not going to fall off, whilst making it easy to detach to clean or iron the jacket and cape separately.

I'm also incredibly happy with the jacket, as it's drafted from scratch and fully lined and is just :chefskiss: There's also lots of other small details I added like the black and white shirt buttons and a tiny pleat that's the same as on the shorts.
