i cant ever find herā¦..but she always seems to find me
I grew up with a grandma who quilted, but sheād never been interested in passing along the hobby, so when she finally kicked it I was the grandkid who got all her materials, ācause I was the only one who knew how to use a sewing machine. Then, in 2015, a friend had a baby and I figured Iād make her a quilt, ācause how hard could it be?
oh
my
god
Luckily I am the stubbornest human alive, ācause I never woulda finished otherwise. I didnāt know what I was doing, didnāt know the terms to look up how to do anything, I musta reinvented the wheel like eight times and it took ten months, BUT I DID IT.
Figured Iād suffered enough and would never do it again and now Iām on quilt #9 smdh
āāāāāāāāā
Iām hyperventilating.
Holy shit. Holy SHIT.
This is INCREDIBLE.
Oh my god.
Iāve gotta go lay down holy shit look at this how do we just walk by other human beings every day and live our separate lives when thereās a person sitting next to you on the train or in line for coffee who goes home and makes things like this what even IS being human holy shit.
GOOD FUCKING JOB.
Oh heck I did not expect the notes to blow up on this, UM
Okay so on a purely technical level, this is not that difficult, you just gotta come at it a little sideways.
The background of this sucker is just rows of 1.5ā³-wide fabric strips. I canāt remember the exact pattern, but I wanna say it was something like one row 6ā³ strips, one row 4.5ā³ strips, one row alternating? I donāt remember exactly, it was a while ago. Thatās not difficult, you just lay it out and sew it all together one row at a time. Itās not hard, just tedious.
The fish are a lil different. I canāt draw, there is a disconnect somewhere and my hands are stupid, so I figured out probably fifteen years ago that tracing was the way to go. For this, I legit just yanked several photos of fancy-looking goldfish off the internet and traced over āem in Photoshop.
Once I had enough, I printed my outlines, laid āem out on the background to create the idea of movement, and then traced the outlines out on fabric and pinned the hell out of āem.
This woulda been WAY easier with Heat āN Bond, but I didnāt know that was a thing at the time. From there I just used just about every fancy stitch on my inherited sewing machine to make the fish STAY WHERE I PUT THEM, and also look good.
I have since learned this is called āraw edge appliqueā but whatever. Itās fun, itās neat, you can do it with a bunch of stuff and impress the hell outta people. More recently, itās how Iāve gone from this:
to this:
(this was another project I SUFFERED over unnecessarily, because Iām the dip that decided to quilt the waves, like a moron)
god that sucked but it looked SO COOL when I was done!
Iām very sorry to tell you that if you thought we would be less impressed with you after this update you were very mistaken. Iāll say again:
Holy. Shit.
Imagine inheriting your grandmas quilting skills without even realizing even after the 9th quilt

i love when ppl who constantly use self deprecating humor interact with me, theyre never sure how to react. theyre like "lol well we all hate ourselves anyways" and im like "no, im sexy as hell actually" like oil and water everytime
Self-appreciating humor even when u 100% donāt believe what youāre sayingĀ is legitimately such an esteem-booster & iād recommend everyone to try and replace deprecating jokes with exaggeratedly-positive & validating ones whenever u can
And tbh, itās funnier/more comfortable for everyone involved anyway. Like, failing spectacularly at something but goingĀ ālol yāall WISH you had my talentsā instead? Hilarious. Its funny, alleviates the pressure on other ppl to validate your negativity, AND even when what youāre sayingĀ āisnāt trueā your brain still responds to hearing positive input & your attitude towards yourself & your situation becomes so much healthier after a while. This kind of thing has been proven to improve mental health & curb self-harming tendencies, as well as contribute to healthier social environments ;0;
Yes I do, actuallyĀ
we all just need to emulate the raw confidence of the kid who has the power of god AND anime on his side
Doing this has genuinely saved me. Pls be kind to yourself even when you don't believe it
I made a little tune but I didnāt know what to use it for. So. I made this.

stop making shows about americans in europe⦠try europeans in america instead. the outrage of not knowing exactly what something costs at a store,, no public transport,, everyone smiling in your face and waiters scaring you by constantly popping up at your table⦠ice in your water for some reason,, the kind of culture clash i want to see!!

unmute for comically aggrieved farmer
Farmer, upset: so the cows think Iām delivering hay and Iām trying to deliver a Fucking. Hole. Goddamnit. Get away! No!
Farmer, losing faith in the world: oh my god, figure it out. Ladies. Itās like a zombie movie, Iām trying to dig!
Farmer: Thereās Not Anything. Stop.
Cows: *disgruntled moos*
Farmer, exasperated: what?
Cows: *single stubborn moo*
Farmer, tired of life: Thereās nothing! Oh my god, itās the entire herd.
Farmer, desperate: Guys. Guys itās dirt! Itās dirt! Itās dirt. Itās not hay!
Farmer: go find another gra- Itās dirt! You know itās dirt!
Farmer, going through the five stages of grief seeing the cows roll in the dirt: What. In. The. Absolute. Shit. Are you doing? What are you doing? Whatās that about? Itās dirt!
Is that Max Kruemcke? From Rooster Teeth?
Glad he seems to be doing well.
