Haven't logged in in forever. Sorry, life is rather lackluster and lonely, so I don't have much to say. I just work and take care of kiddo and occasionally buy something to get a momentary dopamine rush. Be careful what you wish for...you might get it.

Haven't posted in a while! Have some different looks for my F-101. I wish I could get the wig in the second photo in the same color as the first photo. That would be perfect. The blue eyes are pretty, but I think his faceup goes better with the green. #superdollfie #bjd #sd_f_101

Okay, here's my coord. I'm wearing Meta's Camellia OP and head bow. Everything else is off brand, except my bag - I embroidered and made it quite a few years ago! #lolitafashion #metamorphose #egl

When you go to a lolita meet-up and only care about the pictures you took of your doll...her coord was cuter than mine anyway 🤣. #bjd #superdollfie #sd_macha #btssb

Let's go from something I'm good at (sewing) to something I find a struggle (faceups). This is my first time doing a faceup in about 15 years. It's terrible. I am struggling. But I'm not going to get any better if I don't keep at it. Time to wipe and try again! #bjd #superdollfie

I wanted to work in women's health as an RN, but I fell head first into infusion nursing and ended up liking it. I'm realizing now I will probably never go into women's health now since it would mean a pay cut I can't afford. I saw a great job posting today, but guess it's not meant to be.

Aaaaand it's DONE! Cordelia, my beautiful SD10 SwD School A, is modeling. The trim I added to the dress made it come alive, I think! My next project will be something for one of the boys, because I am a bit tired of girly things LOL #bjd ##bjdsewing #superdollfie #sd_school_a

Ah, yes. How could I forget when my own little rugrat ATE a tube last week? To be fair, it was her designated tube and not one out of my stash lol

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

The only way I've been able to solve this problem is to buy a crapload of them, then stash them all over my house and in every bag I use when I go out. I don't move them from their homes. It feels wasteful but it works and I'll eventually use up all of them, right? 😅

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 01/05/2025

Just realized I haven't updated this in forever. I finished the jacket a while back, and have nearly finished the accompanying dress. The dress needs something...beads, maybe? Gotta cover up a mistake at the collar too, and beads would work in that regard. #bjdsewing #bjd

I haven't watched it yet, but I had a feeling it would be like this. Just way too much material to cram into a movie length project IMO. Heck, even the anime skipped over some of my favorite more lighthearted scenes in the manga. Adaptation must be hard stuff!

Cosplays successfully worn! I'd like to remake the entire top of mine since I didn't have time to make it the way I wanted, but otherwise it's all right for cosplaying someone 1/3 my age lol. My daughter looked super cute as Ruby! Hope I can put this on her again soon! #cosplay #aiscream #lvlupexpo

Lmao I'm so tired I posted an uncropped photo with my feet in it, but eff it, I am too worn out to care! We will wear these to LVL UP Expo tomorrow. My daughter is obsessed with the song, but is unaware of the memes, so if you see us, please be aware she probably won't do the call and response.

If you've been wondering where the doll sewing updates went...well, I decided to speed-build some costumes for my daughter and myself, so doll sewing has been on hold. I can't believe I managed all this in under 3 weeks while working overtime AND parenting a 4-year-old! #cosplay #lovelive #aiscream

So now I'm WELL over 40 hours. They found YET ANOTHER infusion for me to do on Friday! FUCK I'm so tired, but at least it's only a 10 minute drive from my house and I can spend most of the time hand sewing. Sometimes being salary really sucks.

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 10/04/2025

I got an add on for Tuesday, which brought me up to over 40 hours. Figured I'd really be done then. But then yesterday I get a request to drive nearly 3 hours one-way to do a single 15 minute infusion in Arizona on Friday. I was only an hour away last night so I got the appointment switched.

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 10/04/2025

I was told this was going to be a hell week for work, but I wasn't prepared for the fuckery I would be put through. I got my schedule last week, and it looks jam packed but surprisingly my Friday is open. Great! I know I might get something added on but I also might get a day off.

The people at the rent-a-car place have seen me enough that they're amusing themselves by giving me upgrades. I'm now driving a Camaro to my appointments out of state tomorrow. They don't know that I refused a '65 Mustang in favor of a minivan for my first vehicle as a teen 😅

BTW, almost all the fabrics I'm using are leftovers from the flower girl dress I made my daughter last year. The lining is bemberg rayon, and the outer fabrics are silk. The netting came off an old Betsey Johnson shirt.

I was sad this morning, so kept myself busy redoing the sleeves and sewing the side seams together today. It's so nice when the project starts to come together! Now comes the outer piping and assembly. I think this will be very cute when done! Now, which girl will wear it? #bjdsewing #bjd

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 30/03/2025

It's funny. 6-7 years ago, if I could have looked at where I am now, I would think I have everything I ever wanted. A child, a partner, a job where I am respected and paid well. But I lost the things that gave me joy before, and days like today, I really want that back. My brain hates being happy.

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 28/03/2025

I put the sleeves on wrong. I'm so irritated. I could just continue on, but the interior won't be as finished and it will gnaw at me. Anyway, have some pre-mistake progress shots! FYI: I hand sew because I have a lot of down time at work and it gives me something to do. #bjd #bjdsewing

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 26/03/2025

I started with the fussiest part: the gathered panel on the back. I suppose it's intended to look a little messy, but I may go back and steam it again to see if I get a better gathering pattern. #bjd #bjdsewing

My next sewing project is based off Ancienne's Alma pattern. I'm starting with the jacket, and if I'm happy with it I'll continue on to the dress and bonnet. These photos belong to Ancienne; I'm including them to display what I'm working on! Please see Ancienne's work at www.ancienne.jp

I felt like death Thursday and Friday. Couldn't eat, could barely sleep. I am in much less pain today, but I'm weak and still can't eat very many things. Banana and applesauce again? Yes, I guess 🙄

Angelic Threads @angelicthreads.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

I called my supervisor about an hour ago but she didn't pick up. Even if I could sleep through the pain, I can't sleep until I know she got the message and reassigns everyone. I really hate being an inconvenience.

I want to disappear. Thought I had a mild cold. But I tried to go to sleep and failed (very uncommon for me). I have a horrible sore throat and fever and spots on the back of my throat - it's probably strep 😫. Worst of all, I am traveling for work tomorrow. Or was.

Here's another couple of photos. Her dress was made using an Ancienne pattern. Every bit of her costume is leftover fabric and notions from costumes I've made for myself in the past. I'll try to dig up some old photos to do a comparison!

The dress is one piece! Hurrah! I found some pearl chain so I'm currently bedazzling areas with that. I'm going to make some embroidered fairy wings to really give it that fantasy air. Now, should I leave the underskirt that length so it peeks out, or hem it so it doesn't show? #bjdsewing #bjd

It's fun when the big elaborate thing you're sewing starts to come together. This dress is gonna look fab on my F-73! I do need to add an underskirt, since I didn't realize how visible the inside of the skirt would be. Tulle or chiffon? Any opinions welcome! #bjd #superdollfie #bjdsewing

The #1 thing I dread about getting a new Volks doll? Removing the hot glued eyes. Does anyone actually like hot glued eyes? Macha lost a few eyelash hairs but otherwise came out unscathed from the ordeal with alcohol pads and tweezers. I really like her with darker eyes! #superdollfie #bjd #sd_macha

My daughter turned 4 yesterday. We took her to a dinosaur exhibit and she was SO excited! She didn't want to leave, and in fact sobbed her poor little heart out when we had to leave. Here she is with some foam dinos she made (ok, Mom and Dad helped 🤣)

I got word today that one of my regular patients has passed. It's not unexpected, and she had a comfortable death, but I'm still sad. She made costumes for fun just like me...this makes me think about my mortality and I do. not. like. it.

I'm working on a new lolita dress. I wanted a simple design since the flocked fabric is so busy, but I may have made it too simple? I haven't finished the neckline yet so maybe I need to fancy it up there.

I put one my old dolls, Teddy (SD13 Amakusa) in a new outfit. And now when my daughter sees me pull a BJD out, it is tradition to have them ride a pony 🤣. I don't know if I'll buy clothing for Teddy again, since now Volks is designing stuff for the slightly skinnier SDGr boy body. It's so tight 😫
