Pondering my orbs.
@1kittynoir1 replied to your post:
What did it get used for? 👀
It's not done yet, but it's the facing, collar, and cuffs for the patchwork dressing gown I'm working on! It was less than half a metre of silk/rayon velvet that I dyed in college because the sample we did of that colour was so nice I wanted a bigger piece. (It was PRO MX fibre reactive dye in the colour Marine, and I don't have my dye sample book with me right now but I think it was at 4%. It shows up more green on some fibres and more blue on others, but is always gorgeous.)
I had no specific plans for it at the time, but eventually the perfect project came along, and there was just enough!
I've been working on this thing (intermittently, in short busts) for a few years now, and am finally done the patchwork and on to the construction. I've posted occasional updates on @vincentbriggs and will post photos there when I'm done.
I've also been filming the whole process, so I'll have a video about it up on my youtube channel eventually, but that'll be a while after it's finished because I have so so so many clips and it's going to take a horrifyingly large amount of editing.
It's based on this c. 1835 original, which is a good 50-100 years later than what I usually sew, but I like it and I wanted one.
If anyone's wondering how many triangles mine has, it's 6,957.
Since I've got the time consuming part out of the way I'm hoping I can get the construction done before winter officially ends.
Edit: Why does everyone think I had a bad time working on the triangles?? I loved working on them, it was so satisfying to put lots of little bits of colour together. The reason I worked on it intermittently is because I could not put it down once I got working on it, and would work on it all day for several days straight until I was very tired and sore, and then I had to put it away to stop myself, and then I'd forget about it for a few months.
Also, they're machine sewn. Most of the actual garment construction will be by hand, but the patchwork is all by machine.
I finished my dressing gown.
And besides the velvet, it of course used up a lot of other little bits of fabric!
(Once again, my sewing and other non-dinosaur works are mainly posted on @vincentbriggs)
Video finished :)
It's an hour and 13 minutes long and I say 11,785 words in it.
i want to build up my skill set to one day be able to make something like this!!!! #op this is 1) absolutely gorgeous & 2) so much helpful information! thank u for sharing 🥰 #all the shots of twirling in the finished garment made me so so happy i got a little teary-eyed??? #‘it looks very nice. it reminds me of — you know when people have extra nipples?’ #absolutely Took Me Out i hollered #like that comment toward the end of such an earnest video? so unexpected. so fucking hilarious
Thank you!! Good luck on your sewing! And I'm glad my Very Correct nipple observations were appreciated
This post is getting notes again, and I just wanna add some pictures of other things I've made videos of.
Stripey painted leather gloves.
Velvet mite brooch.
Leaf for head.
Leaf for torso, a leaf sequel, now with added slime mould beading.
Very very long and detailed shirt tutorial, which I also did a written version of. You should make one, it's all rectangles.
and Normal Fabric Waistcoat.
I am very slow at making youtube videos but I post monthly updates on the video stuff I've been working on over on patreon, along with 4 extra dinosaurs a month. (and aaghh I know I've been really really sparse with the dinosaurs here lately, I'm sorry!! It's not intentional, there are just a lot of other things to do and also it's been over 9 years and every year I get a little more tired of drawing dinosaurs!)
Right now I'm editing a video for a thing I finished sewing almost 2 months ago, and it's not even one of my longer videos, I've just been doing other things and stuff.
Fiber arts is just Math in sheep's clothing
The Keep Out double knit scarf I made for Husband
I thought it would be cool to start posting some of the quilts I've made over the years.
This is The Witcher Quilt made for Desert Bus for Hope in 2020.
Original FPP pattern by me :)
Everyone I give my knitting to carries a piece of me around with them
Its my hair that got caught in the project and knitted in
I did it! I made a little Julbock using @un-pearable’s delightful Gävlebocken crochet pattern (find the original post and pattern link here). I think it turned out pretty well for my first amigurumi!
I have ascended to the level of nerdy knits where you spend a solid year modifying patterns, knitting prototypes, and learning to design cable knit patterns in order to make wrist warmers with the Doors of Durin design from The Lord of the Rings: A Musical Tale on them 😂 No regrets.
As a huge Gimli fangirl, I'm very excited that I finally succeeded in replicating this design, which is featured both on the doors and on Gimli's coat in the show! Kudos for the original design to the incredible Simon Kenny! 🙏
My cross stitch piece is finished now
Took about 5 months! It's a gameboy cartridge circuit board
Original idea by @atelierchikiko , I got permission from them to make my own
Why is knitting so damn addictive once you get the knack of it?
A leaf shawl for fall
At last, I finally have finished a project in the season I intend to wear it! This lovely shawl was certainly a journey, but one that I enjoyed thoroughly. It was a little scary to attempt hand dyeing this shawl, but I am glad that the final results perfectly capture the color of the leaves at the very peak of fall. As the days get colder and the leaves begin to fade, I'm glad I have one to hold onto that will stay vibrant well into winter!
Inspired by the beautiful maple tree leaves so prevalent in the fall, this shawl will be a stunning addition to your autumn wardrobe.
Crying tears of joy.... in a knitting facebook group someone's selling four balls of a discontinued yarn that I only have two balls of. And I havent touched them for ages because two balls wasnt enough for anything I wanted to make LMAO. Miracle of miracles!
THEYRE FROM THE SAME BATCH AS MINE TOO??
Reblog to find the discontinued yarn you need, in the correct dyelot.
