Switched back over to my Forests of Sumatra project! I needed a change, and I forgot how much I enjoy working with Soie d'Alger floss. I also didn't realize how close I am to being done! #crossstitch #embroidery

I think this is my 6th or 7th skein finished? Either way, I'm excited to start a new one! Also, I don't remember who makes this bobbin, but it's cattle bone and I got it at Lacis Lace Museum down in Berkeley, CA. It's a great place if you're in the area! #crossstitch #embroidery

Our poor PNW, man. And I really am so devastated for Spokane. Having three wildfires surrounding your city (with one of them already reaching the suburbs) is a harrowing experience, and I hope they're all fully contained soon.

Discovered a grey spot on my project, and I was immediately ill. I was able to get it out, but I was absolutely falling apart while I waited to see if it worked. The issue is that I had to use water, and I was worried the thread would bleed 😭 Blessed that it didn't 🙇🏻🙇🏻🙇🏻 #crossstitch #embroidery

-- The piano is, essentially, little padded hammers hitting a string, which is why it's classified as a percussive string. The organ, however, has multiple stacked keyboards up top, up to 30,000 pipes, and about 40 foot pedals (picture). It's the most complex instrument that humans have ever made 🙂‍↕️

Unfortunately, I don't think this blanket is going to be a functional size when I'm done with the pattern, so this has officially moved into the decór category. I have less than 40 rows left, and it's currently only 26.5" 😭😭 #crochet

No big deal, just a shit ton of Poison Hemlock right next to the road where people jog and walk their pets. I reported it, so hopefully it gets removed, though I don't have my hopes up.

My family heirloom that my dad stole from his grandmothers old front yard in the middle of the night :'-) In his defense, those people ripped up everything his grandmother planted. They kept the yucca, so my dad took a clipping like a 2am plant burglar 😭

A little over halfway done with my third ball of yarn, and halfway through my rounds! I have four more balls, so hopefully I have enough. Worst case scenario, I cut the blanket short. No big deal! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #crochet

I saw the cutest snail yesterday! If you've never just sat & watched one, I suggest it. They're such entertaining animals! The way their shell wobbles back and forth, their eyes, their little face,,, it's all too adorable. Hanging out in the front at night was always my favorite bc of them :'-)

Gave my parents cat her morning meds (she has kidney issues), and she dug her claws so deep into my hand, somehow missing all my nerves and veins/arteries. I didn't bleed, but I did have a hole in my skin 😔 She hates her meds, but they keep her alive, so she is SOL - Shit Outta Luck 🤷🏻🤷🏻

I think this is a Mountain Bluebird, but I could be wrong (she didn't show me much of herself). Either way, a bluebird in a dogwood was a pretty way to start my day of errands 💙🤍💚

A picture in better lighting! I feel like you can see the texture better here. I also feel like this pattern should have been made in one color, because it showcases the stitches better. If my friends don't like this blanket, I'm absolutely keeping it for myself 🙂‍↕️ #crochet

Finally looking like a square! Thankfully, the pattern doesn't have too many boring consecutive boring rows. If it was just straight-up sc, I would have lost steam ages ago. I'm really liking how it's coming out. I think it looks way different in one color compared to what it calls for. #crochet

When I was around 6 or 7, I made this snowflake for my dad out of pipe cleaners and plastic beads. 20 years later, and he still keeps it around his rearview.

The first cuddle after Solis came back from anesthesia, so it was a very precarious situation. This whole process only took about 3 days, but it felt like forever. I was so happy to come back inside to see it, though. The past few days have been too stressful for our slow and quiet household.

Had a moment yesterday and I was 2 seconds away from giving up, fold my fabric up, go home, and just start completely over from the very beginning. A stitch off is fixable, a half inch made me want to throw a full-blown conniption. #crossstitch #embroidery

Found out it was probably a hobo spider, which have awful vision and likely didn't even realized it got too close. I should have relocated it. Absolutely gutted with guilt and despair.

When I was 12, I sent my friend a text calling my mom a bitch, except I sent it to my mom, not my friend. I knew there was no getting out of it, so I ran up to her and confessed to my crime. She was pissed, left the house for 3 hours, and instead of a lecture or grounding, she came back w/ a cake. -
