I’m a lot. Sewing is an act of rebellion. I am not a safe space for MAGAtS, nazis, or anti-trans stupidity. I am for everyone else, though. Stomp out the patriarchy.

Really enjoyed weaving these herringbone and geometric twills!
Red in between light grey cotton warps woven with dark grey weft.

Saw a Reddit post about the astrological signs as characters from Xena: Warrior Princess and Leo was represented by Ares.

If you are an author that doesn’t use AI in your writing, but does for your promotional images, I’m still going to block you.

WIP: small baguette bag freshly turned right side out and needing more pressing. The piping could’ve been twice the size, but, just fine for first attempt. On to the lining I go.
Handwoven black and white houndstooth pouch, still with raw edges on top, waiting to be lined.

Operation: I Want A New Handbag, has begun. And if you see some inconsistencies in the weave…no you don’t. Handwoven wool fused to a silk organza backing.
Black and white handwoven houndstooth fabric cut into 2 sides of a crescent shaped handbag pattern waiting for sewing to begin. 
One side of pattern pieces has turned over to reveal that they have been fused to silk organza for stability.

If you’re a raging anti-MAGAt and still supporting jk Rowling, you are not on the side that you think you’re on. Get fucked.

From a broken plaid to something that I think I’m going to call Little Ghosts because, if I squint, they kind of look like vintage ghost ornaments. They’re a cute and fun weave!

Velocity Rapture (he/she/they) @velocityrapture.bsky.social · 14/07/2026
Absolutely loving how this “broken plaid” is looking, but, I’m finding the shaft sequences to be frustratingly unmemorable and need to check the weaving draft for every. Single. Pick. It would be much more enjoyable on a floor loom. That’s all I’m saying, 😆

Currently weaving a sampler of 8 shaft twills. The houndstooth looks fabulous (obvi) but when I switched to the pinwheel pattern, I could not see them until I stepped back. Fun!

Yes, it’s a houndstooth. But! This time it’s an 8 shaft houndstooth!

As much as I’d like to, I cannot find a reason to celebrate the death of a single parasite when the infestation is so massive.

Another houndstooth scarf, fresh off the loom and ready for the bath 🖤🤍🖤🤍

Ordered a loom and books for said loom at the same time. Loom came early and I’ve finished assembling her but books are still a few days out. I’ve got eight shafts and really only know how to utilize 4. She’s so purdy, though!

This linen is about to become…something. The plan was for dinner napkins but then we’d have to start having formal meals.
Black linen is wound around a natural wood warping frame.

It’s amazing what the proper sized reed will let you do!! Still need a little tensioning practice, but 8/2 cotton is actually weaving nicely.

Had quite the scare when a warp yarn broke, but, was able to fix it with just a few inches sacrificed. Really falling in love with this vintage LeClerc 16” Dorothy 4 shaft portable table loom!! But it makes me want more shafts…

When seeing/listening to people continuing to be shocked about what is happening even though they were warned repeatedly that this would be happening while they continue to do absolutely nothing to prevent the more bad on the way…

Their incompetence was unfortunate. May the next learn from their mistakes even if I don’t believe for a second that that was legitimate.

The whole “I know a secret that would bring down the entire Catholic Church, so the pope better watch out!” thing was a story line on Passions for a while.

The orange pedophile is just a symptom, the US has millions of little trumps that need to be dealt with.

Hey, librarian here. If you find out a favorite author is a monster, don't separate the art from the author just give it the fuck up and stop supporting the monster.

With the HP trailer dropping tomorrow, here's the whole deal: If you watch the show, hell even just the trailer, I will think less of you. I will dislike you. I will think you don't care about trans people. That's it. It's been years. There's no wiggle room. No qualifiers. You care or you don't.

6 balls each of Black and white wool sit beside each other on a dark brown table. A molded rubber skull bag and the edge of a natural canvas tote bag can also be seen.

Fresh off the loom and ready for a bath that will have to wait until tomorrow. I will probably need to weave 4 of these panels for the cape.

#wip #weaving #ontheloom Just started weaving what I’ll be cutting and sewing into a new cape! Extra fine merino wool in pitch and alabaster.
