some pretty progresses

sooo busy and tired recently

[sillylittledailyupdates]

had zero energy to make photos this work week... it was too socially active

I did mini-blocks!! both are cuties and both I'm proud of. surprisingly cinnamoroll one was the hardest since it's lighting parts and huge amounts of diagonal details

[sillylittledailyupdates]

I wanted to show new nurge that I got yesterday!! now stitching will be more comfortable (though this large one makes my left arm get some real training)

[sillylittledailyupdates]

some additions

worked on many projects at the same time today. made small progresses, but felt alive

[sillylittledailyupdates]

started participating in a project for ru-speaking handmaders in which you focus on your random work for a week (doing other things are possible, but you need to make a certain part of the main work in a week)

so this week is the moon beadwork!🌔 tried to fix some mistakes I made during autumn and actually added to this work more than I did in few months

[sillylittledailyupdates]

you really think i needed all the guards--

Vi's coming home, i hope tomorrow she will come, but now i move really slowly through my processes.

because what? I visited dentist on thursday and slept under anesthesia, then on friday I just slept after work. today? well, i fell asleep after volunteering supervision and came back to my mind 5 hours later? god give that girl some proper rest

doggo is being done too and is currently accepted as my own doggo like one of her kind

hedgehog was huffing and puffing, but kept stitching

[sillylittledailyupdates]

i have a diamond painting kit on work which I use when I overstress and I need something as a distraction. slowly but with determination the moon has risen. actually i added the colour i lost and found only today during cabinet cleaning

also I can suggest two dog butts. this body is only 1/4 of work... what.

KLART — IN THE TULIP WREATH

new one, and I'm sure that's gonna be pretty quick since i do it on mom's birthday. tulips are nonexistent here yet, but i really want to start them tomorrow, so i'm looking forward<3

plus, today was my sister's birthday (she's 3... baby is so big now). so i went to toys shop and accidentally bought myself large block model👉🏻👈🏻 oops

it's a dog, and I already have 1/6 of it

and it looks weird, but trust the process! in few weeks we'll see the result

funny thing, but mom said today that after I started work i seem to have more hobbies and more energy on it. well, guess that's money magic. or work of antidepressants. who knows.

[sillylittledailyupdates]

okay okay okay I did it! loved the effect backstitch gave, like it's a manhwa page. that's gonna be my next diary's cover... maybe at summer

author of both patterns was Midday & Midnight, and I'm so sad that i don't really like something else from them:( I'd def stitch that

[sillylittledailyupdates]

half-stitches day!!

I'm determined to finish this work this week since I'd like to start a project for my mom's birthday

[sillylittledailyupdates]

and this is actually 1/6 of work (except back stitches, bc they're too long to make them now safely)

gonna move higher and higher. hope this year will be even more productive for this work since I won't miss few months out because of finals and starting a job as I did in 2024

[sillylittledailyupdates]

ok so for today it's a birdie

i participate in psychology volunteering program and talk to teens in distress by chats 4 times a week.

and i actually find it very satisfying to make these little models while waiting for messages (some kids tend to write slow, so i take my time)

[sillylittledailyupdates]

it's so sad I don't have enough energy on weekdays:(

[sillylittledailyupdates]

i can't stop stitching it ahhhhhh
