I doodle. I'm also a mender. I can't fix the world, but I can darn your sock and make you a cup of tea. They/she

Page of doodles done while thinking about what to embroider
A lined notebook page with lots of small pencil doodles, mostly of different tiny stylized bees.

Got a stain on one of my shirts so I added an embroidered bee to disguise it. I find that I don't necessarily have to cover the entire stain, just enough to trick the eye. I'm sure I'll get more stains over time, so I will end up with either an army of bees or a menagerie of insects.
A small embroidered bee on a grey-green jersey knit fabric. It is imperfect. Embrace the imperfect.

#craftsky #embroideryAn index finger points to a grease stain on a gray-green jersey knit cloth (a Tshirt). The fabric is held in place by an embroidery hoop.  A needle is out of focus in the upper left corner.

Plugging along on the snake patch. I'm trying out a sashiko stitch and I'm quite pleased with how it's coming along.
A partly done stylized snake embroidery on grey upcycled fabric.  The snake outline is in blue-green yarn.  The inside of the snake is partly done in a type of "one stitch" (hitomezashi) sashiko stitch pattern called kawari kikkōzashi. The stitch gives the impression of stretched out hexagons, which works pretty well as snake scales.
The eyes of the stylized snake are violently pink.  There are pencil and chalk marks everywhere indicating that more is planned.

Playing around with fluffifying a carpenter bee.
3 messy ink sketches of progressively fluffier carpenter bees. The bee labeled normal has relatively normal proportions and is a side view. Bee labeled fluffy is definitely hairier with less well defined wings. Fluffy bee is from a head on perspective.  Bee labeled "is only fluff" is also a head on view but it is the squishmallow equivalent of a carpenter bee. It's almost a perfect circle with chubby lil legs and lil wings sticking out.

I've been turning some doodles into embroidery. They'll eventually be made into patches for visible mending or decoration.
A weevil insect embroidered in rainbow thread on grey upcycled fabric. It looks whimsical.

#craftsky #embroidery #visiblemending #reuseUnfinished stylized snake embroidered in gradient blue/green thread on grey upcycled fabric. It's eyes are pink triangles. There are chalk marks in a messy grid around it, presumably for additional embroidery.

Making the grocery list, put "long loaf" on it for the type of bread. Doodling commenced
A lined notebook page with pen doodles of cats as long loafs of bread.  The doodles are quite frankly terrible, but drawing them was fun.

I went to a convention this weekend. It's such a joy to interact with all the amazing artists and see their amazing creativity on display.

Geese are modern dinos, you cannot convince me otherwise.
