BLACK SAILS, II

[giddysquid]

Just in time for Moon Day Monday, I finished my quilt!

I learned many things on this one, including:

- nesting your seams is a thing and it really helps with nice aligned corners, who knew??

- inset circles. Now I fear nothing, including God

- how to use the long arm with a pantograph

- the easy way to change thread on the long arm because the inner blocks were too light for the medium grey thread I was using

- how to stress out my grandfather stopping at various points on the pantograph because I wanted to do something different in the moons and finally

- fun things about free motion quilting, so I could put the correct textures of our beautiful lady into the different phases on the blocks.

The pattern is a mish mash of the Moon Portal quilt pattern by The Water Spirit and the Plaid-ish 2 from Erica Jackman of Kitchen Table quilting, plus some cathedral window blocks for the stars in various sizes.

If I was wealthy I’d get weird surgery recreationally and spend five grand on six academic texts per week and have a fancy office that’s only for sucking dick and smoking and wear fabrics made of evil and I’d have two personal trainers that I double book so they have to compete for my attention and I’d smell obscure and irresistible and I’d have machine guns and a sculptor that I fund who lives in the woods and is not allowed to leave but gets whatever they want brought to them because the art is just that important and I’m not allowed to see it until it’s done and also theyre dying

one of the cooler parts of growing up is realizing that you were being incessantly lied to throughout highschool and that fat gay people are not only capable of being desired, but are actively and often voraciously lusted after

Things I have done that are not my annotated bibliography due tomorrow:

Moved stuff and furniture

Cleaned the house

Taken delivery of a massive chest of drawers

Started to deep clean our desk, my sewing supplies and the bug out bag

Eaten a bizarre, unidentified tropical fruit

Scrolled the internet for 10min trying to figure out if I'm having an allergic reaction to said fruit

I gotta study...

I have 10 inch squares of fabric prepped for another quilt, but due to delays in shipping a tool (and my own impatience) that project was delayed. Enter this quilt.

I got the cat print and rainbow print fabric at a fabric garage sale and had the solids in my scrap bin. My concept was to just make a bunch of blocks all using that green background fabric then find a way to put them together in the end. I ended up settling on this color wash row layout (which I am so pleased with) and since the tool still hadn’t arrived, I decided to give hand tying a try as the quilting method. The overall affect is very playful and the rainbows are certainly fitting for June.

so many people ive known have pushed themselves to burnout trying to deny their disabled reality, skipping accommodations, skipping rests etc. and the world convinces them that the solution to their burnout is to push even harder. it’s a huge tragedy. i know social pressures make it tough but i want more disabled people to make things easier for themselves where possible, to opt out of things that harm them when possible, to quit while they’re ahead. be that person today! protect yourself where you can! take micro breaks while doing your hobby. get that shower chair. sit to brush your teeth. lie down in the middle of the day, even if only for 5 mins. these things add up and it’s so worth it.

happy disability pride month! ACCOMMODATE YOURSELF TODAY!

I made a quilt for my friends’ baby and I can’t share it anywhere they’ll see because I haven’t given it to them yet but I’m so very proud of it!

if an aid of any kind helps you to live a more functional life, don’t deny yourself that help. especially if you think this aid makes you lazy. it doesn’t. other people who don’t need this aid to function more easily will tell you otherwise. don’t believe them. they haven’t ever needed it yet, but if they do, there’s no shame in that.
