Hello all! I’ve just taken my projects off the blocking board, and this is what we have.
This project is for my dancer/psych friend! Our friendship began by complete chance: I met her roommate online, and we started hanging out through that connection. We were even roommates at one point! Unfortunately, it turned out we made terrible roommates, but we are definitely still friends.
She is so immensely creative, oh my god. She knits and draws and writes. She used to do ballet as well, but quit because she didn’t like the dance department at our school. She does still partner dance, though, and it’s always amazing to watch. Most of all, though, she’s so kind. Last year, all these shitty things kept going wrong in my life, but whenever I felt upset I could just go over to her room and cry, and she’d always make me feel better (at one point I burst into her room while sobbing “I’m Draco Malfoy,” but that’s a story for another time).
My local needlepoint store actually pointed their original canvas out to me, but since I couldn’t actually buy it they let me take a picture of it to create on my own. It is completely done, and will probably be made into a pillow.
