You’ve heard of one shots, now get ready for none shots! It’s when you think of an idea for a fic and then don’t write it

[systlin]

So my sister wants to start sewing more, because

a. She’s 5′ 11″ and can never find pants long enough for her legs or shirts long enough for her arms.

b. She hates synthetic fibers as much as I do and it’s difficult to find natural fiber clothes that aren’t made of cotton

c. She’s a biologist and would physically fistfight microplastics if given half a chance

So her gift from mom and dad for her birthday was a sewing machine. Not a super expensive one but a good solid serviceable one.

And recently she asked “So where do I GET wool or linen and thread that isn’t polyester” and mom was like ‘go ask your sister’

And I, of course, crashed into the group text like “GET A PEN I HAVE WEBSITES FOR U” and honestly I’m thrilled about this

[systlin]

“Where did u get all this”

“Bets, u know I’m a 15th degree blackbelt of buying shit on the internet”

“oh yeah tru”

I don’t know a lot about sewing, but I want to make or have my mom make some linen pants & shirts for when I’m watering, because it gets to 105 here and we have mosquitos so I need to be covered. What type of linen do I buy? Also, linen pajama shorts, yes/no?

(I’ve been wearing my renfaire pants which are a linen mix, I think. But the frikking mosquitos that hide in the tomatoes get my arms)

[systlin]

Medium weight is what I’d go with.

And linen pajama shorts is a HARD yes.

[beggars-opera]

Renaissance Fabrics is good for all sorts of things

Mood doesn’t specialize in natural fabrics but they do have basically every fabric ever made so

[the-merry-otter]

For wools, I cannot recommend Woolsome enough! They’re a bit more expensive then the above links, but they have a spectacular range of colours and weights, as well as diamond pattern and herringbone weaves. They also have a range of linens, though not as extensive.

Woolsome

Historical fabrics for re-enactors

[justgarb]

Tiedtohistory.com has sheer voile linen

The Linen Lab has a variety of weaves, weights, and colors available

Period Fabric has a variety of wools, but switch to the full website if you’re on mobile

This comic is directly inspired by the handful of fanfiction where LBH and SQQ switches roles/faces/positions, specifically where LBH is ‘forced’ to take SQQ’s place as PL while SQQ is determined to protect him and goes into the Endless Abyss himself :D my favorite is the one called ‘if you need a second chance, you can take mine’ by clairelutra but another series I was inspired by was ‘forged in your shape’ by funeralstrut.

I just love it sm?? Like how are people so creative?? I especially love it bc you can rlly tell how much LBH and SQQ love each other when they protect one another while using each other’s identities. (Is anyone else thinking of Joongdok?)

Anyways, I randomly locked in when I drew LBH and then suddenly, I was forced to update the entire comic to be at the same level as that one panel… I think it’s also funny bc you can lowkey tell which one I’m talking about.

Au where liushen get together while Binghe is in the abyss. Liu Qingge doesn't know how to feel about dating someone who's grieving but they make it work. Liu qingge and shen qingqiu are both very thin faced so it takes them a long time to get intimate, but after a year or so Liu Qingge finally starts sleeping over at the bamboo house.

One day Liu qingge wakes up holding shen yuan in bed as usual. Shen Qingqiu is gaping at him with a red face. Liu qingge asks what's wrong and shen qingqiu sputters out something he can't understand, so he puts his hand on shen qingqius back, pulls him closer, and kisses him on the lips and says "go back to sleep if you're not feeling well."

Shen Qingqiu seems to be in shock. Before Liu qingge can ask what's happening, a 16 year old Binghe opens the door and says breakfast is ready.

Liu Qingge: you? Didn't you die in the Immortal Alliance Conference?

Shen Yuan: what the fuck is going on. How does liu qingge know about what will happen in the future-

Binghe: WHY ARE YOU IN SHIZUNS BED.

Liu Qingge is too embarrassed to admit he and shen qingqiu are dating in the future so when shen yuan asks what that was all about, Liu qingge just blushes and says "hmph" and refuses to answer

Shen Yuan, critiquing Binghe's work: This is peak.

Luo Binghe, nodding along rapidly, because even though what his Shizun said has arguably nothing to do with his work, this IS Qing Jing Peak, and he sounded proud enough.

More medieval dyes for y'all!

[greatwyrmgold]

People in the past liked having colorful clothes, too! And the cost of (local) dye was pretty low compared to the labor required to spin fiber into thread, let alone all the other steps in making clothes.

Ah! This is one of the common references I use when designing the Redwall characters! It’s a very handy resource 🥰
