I'm releasing myself from the burden of taking aesthetically pleasing photos of my work with any regularity! So please enjoy the head and shoulders of this Baymax plushie I'm making for my 1.5 year old niece who is obsessed with Baymax and the gah-gah (cat) from Big Hero 6!
I have never, and will never, use "ofc" to mean "of fucking course". It literally stands for OF Course...
Haven’t had a chance to watch the tutorial yet, but I’m seriously considering making this for my gf’s niece

Alright we're sewing again and I forgot that I didn't actually get very good at it but whatever!
I'm making a buckwheat hull pillow which involves a zipper so the hulls can't escape. My research has led me to believe I should be scared of zippers but I don't know enough about the process to be afraid so I will charge ahead. Here is the progress I made tonight:
1) Cut my fabric, but I couldn't just follow a tutorial and use their measurements because I'm just Like That so hopefully I did the seam allowances right ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (I wouldn't bet on it).
2) Zigzagged the edges to prevent fraying because obviously I don't own a serger. That step reminded me that I am unable to sew a straight line (see above)!
3) Hand-basted the zipper in place. I am learning a lot, like it's way easier to baste with a contrasting thread color! You're just going to take it out anyway!
BUT LOOK LOOK I SET THE ZIPPER UP RIGHT
I finished my pillow and have learned to fear zippers
Also I'm pretty sure it was going to unzip itself and free its buckwheat hulls in the bed (which is unacceptable for many reasons but not least because they look like bugs), so I rigged up a janky way to hook the zipper to a button
Anyway my mom (who sews clothes and once made an entire suit for her dad) said I did a good job so there's that
Okay I'm changing careers and becoming a full-time buckwheat hull pillow evangelist because it was SO NICE to sleep on
My god, ANOTHER update? What is happening? (I'm avoiding responsibilities obv)
The zipper has held and no hulls have escaped into my pillowcase! I have just enough supplies for one more pillow, so I am going to try to make another one with a velcro closure this time because, while that is much less elegant, I think it will just work better. PLUS I haven't tried sewing velcro yet!

Moon. Fabric and thread. Stitched from a photo my brother took.
[ID: A detailed and textured embroidered half-moon which has been stitched onto black fabric. The moon's dark side is rendered in black thread, while the craters and rocks are distinguished through circles of white and metallic and French knots. End ID]
FRENCH KNOTS??!!

crafting and sewing would go so much faster if i did not do it all mostly hunched on the floor and then need to lay flat on my back (also on the floor) for 20 minutes every hour or two to uncurl my spine
my dear friend just looked up from the hat she's crocheting for a very large spherical rock we found in the river and said, in a slightly haunted tone that revealed this was the first time she was having this thought, "i should make something for my cousin's real human baby"
who needs a real human baby when you could have rock son with jaunty hat
