The feline familiars must recharge in the sun. Not pictured: the blue jay that Nyxie (left) will definitely devour one day (he won't, as a lifelong indoor baby)

My book dragon has reached her final form: an oversized tote bag! I think the scale got away from me a little bit more than initially intended, but that's alright. Just means more room for book hoards!

I swear sometimes the hardest part of sewing and quilting is picking accessories and hardware. What zipper color goes best: lavender, light blue, yellow, green, or purple?

Reading somehow feels more productive if I can turn it into a colorful list and chart spread in a journal

Today I finished my crochet Jane Austen that's been in the works for over a year (🫣) Maybe now I should actually read the very pretty book she goes with
🧶💙📚

I recently learned about plant jewelry, so I spent all of yesterday putting stars and pretty things on my lemon meringue pothos (her name is Calliope, because why not have a Greek muse pie plant?)

My first hand knit sock circa 2016 and my most recent sock, side by side. I love keeping the firsts of things even when they fit poorly so I can see how my knitting skills improve. I've also finally gotten over my fear of using "fancy" yarn! Yay progress! 🧶

I'm in love with the monthly summary spreads from @thestorygraph.com. They make me feel like a proper BookSky girly more than my little journal spreads

Knitting socks with bamboo DPNs is great for anxiety. If I let the tension in my chest reach my hands, I'll snap a needle. So the whole thing turns into forced relaxation. And you can take breaks to pet the yarn 🧶

I'm new to this hobby, but knitting Gundam is a totally normal and acceptable pose for battle robots, right? Everyone likes to be cozy. 🧶🤖💙📚

Lazy Sunday means doing some visible mending (yet another) hole in my son's clothing. I used a scrap from an upcycled sweater as the patch so it feels very "waste not, want not." Sashiko sewing is my favorite.

I heard snoring while working and found these two cuddly furry babies behind me
(Peep the blanket I crocheted for the books I read in 2023, still love how it turned out)

When two hobbies collide: reading and sewing. I made a zipper pen holder that matches my current read (The Last One by @rachelhowzell.bsky.social)
