Crafting in a "this is fun" way and not a "people shouldn't have rights" way
Tysm! I really liked the pattern. The directions are clear and the pieces go together nicely. My only gripe is that the pattern doesn't have color labels, so I was going back and forth between the color map and piece map a lot. But the artist also suggests coloring them yourself as another option.

Isn't he the cutest? I've called myself a book dragon for a while so the pattern is perfect. I think I'm going to attempt a spooky colorway for a Halloween dragon next.

Thank you! I actually didn't pick the other fabrics until after the zipper. I'm definitely a design as you go kind of crafter rather than having a whole plan from the beginning :) I'm in love with all the purple

Thank you so much!

I had to get a little crafty with cutting to keep the scale small. The second lightest teal has big Star Wars X wings and R2-D2 all over that I had to carefully cut around to make it work. Lavender seems to be the consensus!

I usually do too. I do the trick of turning your camera to grayscale to show the value more clearly and that helps a lot. But most of my color picking success is pure luck.

If I could find a way to make five zippered pockets work in the design of a bag, I'd probably do it. I love pockets!

Thank you! Its foundation paper pieced so it looks way more difficult than it actually is, but I shed tears over the eye ball so 😅

I think you're right, though. I definitely want the dragon to be the main star, so the zipper should fade into the background a little.

I need to take updated photos because she is flourishing. My friend says the jewelry makes her grow better and I'm not a scientist so I can't argue 😅

Thank you! I'm quite happy with how she turned out.

Thank you! She's my first surviving houseplant so I may be biased, but I think she's the best little plant ever.

Thank you! I really love the little bit of sparkle ✨️

I need to better about them. Skills improve so slowly, it's hard to notice in the moment. But put things together almost a decade apart (😵) and the improvement is wild.

I'm a measurement girly, because counting is hard 😅 my next pair of socks is going to be my first taat because I'm chronic with second sock syndrome.

I love knitting that looks like it makes sense in art! But she's also going to haunt my nightmares frfr
