Finished the bodice!

First time doing woven sewing of clothing for a long time. Also first time doing embroidery (although I have done a lot of cross-stitch)

Can't wait to try it on with proper foundation garments.

An olive green cropped bodice vest that is laced up with a leather cord. On the one side of the front are three embroidered dandelion puffs with some of the seeds scattered up towards the shoulder.

Breathless on the bridge
Arrested by beauty
Noticing the echo
Of the swifts,
And the happy sadness
Of warblers by the waters edge
Entranced
By the gentleness of elderflowers
Its sweetness and its ease
My head swims
In the scent of summer
Damp and dewy
A hint of cinnamon
Breathe it in
Deeply, like a love poem
This soft air would fill your heart
And make it all worthwhile
This journey to the bridge
And the breathless hills.
Just waiting
On the bridge
Breathing you in
Beautiful summer.

Afterglow

We set fires, forget
they are uncontrollable,
and love the burning;
but, as flames are dimmed by smoke,
hope still glows in the embers.

something that wasn't obvious to me earlier is that you can encode these twills as 3-bit integers where 0 means go outward, 1 means go inward. You can see where the bits flip because it creates a double-thick section. huh. interesting.

I admire the Native/Indigenous people, and Allies as well, that have made the decision to use and support, decolonized and Native owned/moderated social media. They are clearly leaders and put their actions where their mouth is.

Mvto! Thank you very much!

A friend (
@teffeau.bsky.social
!) reminded me of this graphic which is so good... www.socialchangemap.com

So much of cultural change work is done outside the headlines and the limelight, before (and after!) the flashpoints, in ways no one sees or trumpets but is critical work.

To help raise money for my wheelchair I decided to sell a t-shirt based off one of my recent drawings. If you love my art or want to help support me in affording a better wheelchair, please consider purchasing one of my shirts. All the profits I make will go towards the purchase of the new chair from notawheelchair.com~ :menhera_admire:
