Hi #sewsky does anyone know of a shirt pattern which looks close to this? I had this MNG top c.2000 and wore it til it wore out. it has great structure to it, in a stable woven. been looking to recreate it.

Shirt on a mannequin. the shirt has wide 3/4 length sleeves and a pointed collar . it has a deep v neck to a seam beloe the bust. The top bust detail has a slight wrap detail.

Scotland's land distribution is amongst the most unequal in Europe. Land should benefit our communities, nature and environment, not just private profit. We'll limit how much land can be bought by any individual or company unless it provably contributes to the common good.

Half of Scotland's land is owned by 400 people. Scottish Greens will limit how much can be bought by any individual or company. On May 7th vote Scottish Greens.

You absolutely cannot separate the artist and the art without contributing to the persecution of trans people. Boycott everything Potter.

Advocate: J.K. Rowling uses Harry Potter wealth to fund anti-transgender organization.

This has been a week for noticing my energy - both good & bad- (lots happening) but i’m definitely feeling the thin edge of the wedge today. Plus hip pain throwing some new shade this week.

not entirely the point but also a reminder that Substack just partnered with Polymarket so if you needed another reason to get off the Nazi platform, this is it

In the House of Lords today, a government minister refused to rule this out. To be clear, this would amount to legalising theft. It would fly in the face of public opinion on what is fair, and would mean a surrender of British creatives' work by this Labour government. 3/4

There are rumours it is considering introducing a 'commercial research exception' for AI training. This would be disastrous. It would mean handing the life's work of British creatives to AI companies for free, to train their models on. 2/4

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work. This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public. Please spread the word. 🧵 1/4

doing something today that is important to me but even bigger for Louise-of-the-recent-past so if you can spare a thought of “you go girl” for us both, I’d be grateful & delighted.

AI Eulogies are the giddy limit. Also lets normalise writing your own! I took that decision after a fckn awful family funeral where the speaker did not know enough about the deceased “she loved country rock: the dictionary describes country rock as…” and other irrelevant shite

Noticing 09.02.26 i think i’ve just heard a wee mechanical tinny laverock above the wind. just a whistle, but that gives me hope for brighter days. The skylarks nest in that place and I always stop up listen. Thanks for the teaser of coming attractions

CUTE! Once upon a time, I cleared out all my mismatched cups cos i thought you had to have matching ones. Within an hour I cleared out all the matching ones & brought the others back. A broad selection forever!

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. “are these coming back?”

I’ve made sourdough cinnamon rolls; they are in the oven right now. They’re just for me. YOU are worth making sourdough for. YOU are worth making cinnamon rolls for, YOU are deserving of making and eating anything you like. but these are mine!
