In the time I've been offline here, I've taken up quilting as a hobby to pass the time, and especially to make display pieces for work. It's much more simple than garment work for my brain, and a nice break sometimes!

This piece is a Seaglass Quilt, inspired by @/exhaustedoctopus on insta, who's class you can register for and use to make your own. This is just my practice quilt, and I still have to quilt it, but it's been fun to not be so precious with the shapes and judge nudge things around until they looked right.

I'm hoping to get it quilted and bound soon, so I'll post photos when I finish!

Bird Cage

For once, I felt free. I felt the sky. I felt the clouds. I felt the grass gently swaying at my feet. I felt as if I weighed nothing. I felt as if I was one with the flowers, dancing in the gentle wind. My eyes slowly gaze upon the sky, slowly my dopamine left my body. My hair swayed in the wind as I looked at the steel cage that awaited me. I step away from my freedom and slowly enter my bird cage. Although, it felt like a bear trap that I’ll never leave. Unless he desired me to, I stepped inside and felt my heart, liberty, and my dopamine left as quickly as it came.
