I pay no attention to critics. Many of them don't know what fun is.

Women with thighs and small waists aren't allowed jeans that fit. The bane of my existence.

Heckin tired. Being ill when my mum was up to visit wasn't the plan, but hey ho. We managed to have fun regardless. Showed my offsprings Rocky Horror Picture show for the first time. My mum is a huuuge fan, so it was lovely her being there to see it too. The youngest loved it so much they cried 💘

You could definitely use it to design projects too. Once all the patterns and fabrics are unlocked. It's definitely scratching an itch.

Been watching hubby play it. It really is gorgeous. I suspect it will give some people motion sickness though.

It's so good. I can't stop playing it. And you know I'm a voracious sewer.

Still feeling rough, but distracting myself with the Dressmaker game. Saw @mousie.yogscast.com playing it the other day, and it very much dpoke to me. When I mentioned it this morning it turned out hubby had already added it to the wishlist 🥰

A bewitching banquet 🩸 Happy October!

I got totally sucked into watching that game when hubby played it. There's some amazing original ideas.

It's truly awful that you have to go through all this. I'm full of rage at the state of the world. I can but offer virtual hugs.

In good news today, my youngest offspring finally has an appointment to get their braces off. Their teeth are now as straight and neat as they can be. They might actually work properly now!

I lost my lip bar during lockdowns. I didn't get chance to get to a piercer for months after, and she managed to just wiggle it back open without repiercing it. Hopefully yours will just go back in.

Skirt panels have been cut. This wool likes to fray, so I've bound the edges of the long sides. Because these won't be seen I've used some of the random bias binding from the stash I inherited from my Nana. I'm slowly getting through it. It's nice to have little bits of her in my projects.

Rachel @ivybombshell.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Plan on doing some work on skirts later. I have all my velvet drying after a wash. I'll probably cut the wool skirt and get started printing that. But first I need more tea.

Hooray for Autumn! It's finally cool enough to work on my larger crochet projects. Work has continued on my gaming poncho, which is getting close to finished. After that will be my spooky mosaic crochet jumper. Fingers crossed I should get that finished by winter.

Hubby is very happy playing Control: Resonant. He preordered it with his birthday money back in may. It's very trippy so far.
