Un mese e mezzo fa a un crafty party ho creato degli gnometti con l'idea di lasciarli nei microgiardini sulle spallette lungo l'Arno.

Oggi ne ho lasciati tre :3

Ne farò altri, la trovo una cosa troppo carina

Recently finished my latest quilt project! I'll include a pic here, but if you want to see more and read about the details, check out my blog post below:

A large patchwork quilt spread out on a hammock outside. It uses navy blue, maroon red, and cream colors, with a white border and horse-themed binding. The prints are a mixture of Texas-themed and geeky children's fabric (Mario, Antman, and Hot Wheels).

Made a scarf my friend commissioned. Suprised it didn't take me as long as I thought it would (and a lot less yarn).

I did it width ways, then made it longer.. as opposed to #crocheting the entire length and then making it thicker as it built up.

It is 6 inches across, so hopefully I made it pretty standard sized.

Hopefully they like it.

Ps: if yah want one get in touch :)

Mi piace conservare biglietti di eventi, piccole note, ritagli, flyer e altra carta significativa.

Mi sono però scocciata di averla tutta sparsa senza criterio, occupa spazio e non favorisce la memoria.

Voilà lo scrap book per conservare tutto, decorato semi-a caso: Ciarpame mnemonico.

#scrapbook #crafty

A bit of a scratch build sci fi platform thing to go on top and hopefully hide most of the cracked mess.

Built from a cog wheel from some Xmas toy or other, an exhaust vent (possibly an F14?), some undercarriage strutting, a B17 bomb lock, the lid of a superglue tube, an engine vent from a Bf109 and some other bits of unused piping as #greeblies

Same, but rotated 90° to the right (anti clockwise viewed from the top)

Finished a quick bust while I was on leave, mainly while waiting for inspiration to strike on how to complete my other in progress #Orkz...

So here's my most recent, which I've (somewhat) randomly titled #OrkvilleWright.

I know the eyes aren't right. I may revisit them at some point (unlikely TBH).

#Crafty

A Kromlech KRBU001 Ork pilot bust.

It's looking straight into the camera.

Knowing that the Imperium is the fascist future regime, i decided to go with a WW2-era "Western allies" pilot (as clearly that's who was fighting against the fascists back then).

He's front on facing the camera, with standard green ork skin, but a very unhealthy pink/ red lips. He's wearing a sheepskin lined leather flying jacket, a checkered neckerchief and flying goggles perched atop his forehead.

He's mounted on a base with grass tufts visible, and an orkish tracked vehicle with 3x ww2 style green bombs stacked on it.

His eyes are standard humanoid blue (think "Paul Hollywood" if you've seen The Great British BakeOff) with round pupils

A view from his left (about his 10 o'clock) showing he is also wearing a leather flying helmet(cap).

A view from his right side (about his 3 o'clock).

Not much more is revealed here, except a slightly better view of the tracked bomb vehicle

A view from higher up, looking down onto the base to show various bits of ork-decorated aerial vehicle parts, with lots of nuts & bolts holding repair panels in place and rust.

I've been making lots of wearables lately! I stuck my latest IRL projects into one big blog post with pictures and explanations for those who are interested in looking at crafty stuff:

And so we have arrived to the last day of the year 2025😊
This is December all done. You’ll have to wait a little bit longer to see the finished results.
Wish all my followers a Happy New Year🍾🥂🥳🎉

It was pointed out to me that the hair (moulded on the original figurine) was wrong, parted on the wrong side, and a different style.

So I took a scalpel to it, and then some Green Stuff... They had a point, i think it's a lot more "recognisable" now. Agree?

#WIP #Crafty #Orc

Working on an idea for a new piece, but I'm not convinced it's working as well as I expected/ hoped.

Question to you all (boosts for wider reach and replies requested/wanted/welcome); what do you think of when you see this? - and how obvious was it (or did you need to think before you answered)?

Wanted to show you this art that one of my residents I’ve known over ten years made. Her name is Vera and she’s a very sassy German lady who drinks too much. 🎅 #crossstitching #artsandcrafts #crafty #santaclause #merrychristmas

In time for the season, I managed to finish my #zombie #Santa & Rudolf.

I'm always misplacing my favorite leather thimble, so I finally took the time to connect it to a chain and attach it to an old mood ring I had lying around. Bonus: it looks kinda neat!

@crafty oh wow you actually crafted the entire ship😍 Very #crafty

I have at some point needed miniscule longboats for turn/score markers for my Norse #BloodBowl team, and decided to go the lazy way, find a good stl online, have a mate shrink it to like 3% and 3d print it. Yours is way way more impressive!

Two 25mm bases with longboats on with blue and white sails

Okay. #Viking valkyrie/ female warrior has been finished.

Rather than a plain base, or a continuation of the model, I decided to do a small vignette of a crossing instead. I quite like this idea and might use it more in future...

#Crafty #MiniaturePainting

Photo taken from about her 11 o'clock, in a high position, set so she's looking down the camera lens.

Photo from her 4 or 5 o'clock, at the same height, showing her shield slung over her back.

Standard front on view, slightly high, so the base is also in frame.

She's a female appearing warrior. Leaning against her left shoulder is a long spear, the point higher than her helmet.

Her helmet is very embellished, it has a sharp metal spike in the middle, and very tall winged sides. It's been painted to be a chrome steel helmet, with bright gold decorations.

She's wearing a leather corset, and many leather belts. On her arm is a bandage, with blood showing a long cut across her wrist/ forearm under it.

A close up of the vignette base, showing a Viking longship crashing through the waves.

The sail is a classic red/white vertical striped affair with a black raven painted wings out spread in the middle.

Behind the boat are three small snow-covered granite outcrops.

Sewing can be oddly soothing

I spent about an hour this morning trying to avoid jabbing myself with a sharp metal object. The experience was more satisfying than I would have expected–not just because it left me without injury, but because it left me with a inexpertly patched pair of jeans.

I’ve been sewing buttons back in place since I was in high school, that being one of many things my mom taught me to do. It’s not hard, it doesn’t take that long, and even if you need to make this repair away from home, you’ve got decent odds of a hotel room including a mending kit with all the materials needed.

It took me a little while longer to get in the habit of picking up a needle and thread to sew together a tear in a shirt or a pair of pants. That’s not too difficult either, plus you get the satisfaction of restoring an item of clothing to service without having to pay somebody to do it.

Then I devoted part of a Saturday in July to level up my mending game at a free clothing-repair tutorial in Arlington hosted by Art on the Mend (yes, that is me in the picture on the home page), a program founded by cartographer Alison Davis-Holland.

With a small room’s worth of people, I got some hands-on coaching in picking the right kind of fabric to patch an item of clothing, a few different stitching techniques to employ for the work, and how to proceed with it. The “why” of this lesson was just as important: not only because it’s cost-effective to repair something, but because that act of DIY mending personalizes that object.

And it allows you the chance to put some creativity into the required stitching, as Davis-Holland showed with some of her own fine work.

I left the class with a pair of jeans in which a developing rip in the wallet pocket had been sewn up–with a lot of help from the attendee seated next to me–as well as a set of fabric patches to use in other fabric-repair attempts.

Saturday morning was one of them, involving another pair of jeans that needed patching. (I don’t remember Levi’s wearing that badly in my younger days, but maybe I just keep them longer now.) Sewing a patch on fabric that’s begun to fray is more work than re-attaching a button to an intact shirt, especially if you’re not that practiced at this task, and so I had to take my time with it.

But I also found this exercise so oddly soothing that I didn’t mind the minutes going by. Slip the needle and thread through, send it back, through and back, through and back… and the risk of poking yourself with the pointy end forces a level of concentration that my screen time rarely allows.

See also: why I’m so crazy about gardening and cooking, two other hobbies that help me less like a digital man and more like the analog kid I once was.
