Jesus Tapdancing Christ... THIS is a good welt pocket and the people who designed Simplicity 2895 ought to be blasted well ASHAMED of themselves for the crap way THEY wanted a welt pocket made. *SNARLS*

[makereadgrow]

This is how I learned to do it and a good example of what you want to see in a short form tutorial: pinning, pressing, seam finishing, good fabric handling.

I would mention that you can make the pocket facing with a small panel of your matching fabric that is visible and the rest in a lighter fabric to reduce bulk. That's a lot of denim layers for comfort.

being a jack of all trades is dope as fuck honestly. it's like I'm doing crop rotation inside my own brain

I painted yesterday.

Water lilies, 48”x30”, Acrylic on canvas.

I painted for 12 hours, slept on it, stalked it a bit, made sure it was finished, and I think it is.

Probably.

I’m happy with this one, and very excited to give it to its recipient!

Being a crafty person and making a bunch of things often prompts people to ask "oh wow did you make that?" And like, the short answer is: yes I did, but the long answer is: well, no, the pattern isn't mine, but I did choose and buy the fabric/yarn and sewed it together/crocheted it/knitted it myself. I used a reference for that drawing/painting, I didn't come up with it myself. That ceramic piece was insired by a poem and a painting made by different people. What I'm trying to say is, everything I make requires other people to make their own thing first, and then I get inspired by them to do my own thing. So I can't really call anything truly mine, because really it's just a bunch of inspirations and experiences of others (and me) put together by my hands. Does that answer your question

[stitchnknit]

This yarn came from sheep raised in New Zealand and was spun by a woman in Peru. The pattern was created by someone in Germany. My needles were made by a craftsman in China and my stitchmarkers came from the lady at the local fiber festival.

I may have knit this sweater but it contains the souls of people from around the world.

also a poem from the new, unreleased collection. very possibly my own all-time favourite.

[Text ID: "We Have Enough Dead Friends / BY LENA OLEANDERSON // Come over. The doors are open, / my flat's a mess and / so is my heart / but the doors are always open. /Come over. I will make soup, / probably from frozen but / the important thing is / we will both eat. // You don't have to be dying, / but if you are, / or you feel like you are, / or if living's been hard, / call me, and I will show up. / It doesn't have to be that bad, / it doesn't have to be bad at all, / but if it is, please call. // Do you want me to do the groceries? / Do you want me to mop the floors? / Do you need to be held; / you don't have to be dying to be held. / If you want me to be there, I want to. // I'm on the bathroom floor again, / and breathing is hard, / and eating's been hard, and sleeping, / the world is a laden thing / rolling around on my chest lately. / Just being alive is heavy tonight, / but we have enough dead friends. // Come over." -end ID]

the thing about being nonbinary is that you really do start to forget that other people have such strict walls around what is and isn’t allowed for genders. i thought we all agreed that we made that up. could you climb out of the cave real quick and feel the sunshine for a minute.

horniest battle moments:

- taking your ally's weapon out of their scabard to use yourself

- using someone else's shoulder as a rifle stand

- nudging someone's chin up with the tip of your weapon

- freezing with your blades against one another's throats, breathing into each other's mouths

[nudityandnerdery]

Queer as in an "identity is fluid and descriptors can be imprecise so I prefer a more general term" sort of way but also queer in a "What are you, a cop?" sort of way.

[muresetivoire]

Pins you to a wall with a dagger against your throat (romantically)

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

queer is a gender, sexuality, romantic orientation, political alignment, and mission statement, babey

[beanmed]

queer is literally a slur that means weird and strange

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

and I most certainly am weird and strange, what else you got?
