Six months later and I can finally take the last steps to finish this very special project. Means: More pearls, more glitter, more thoughts and more spells sewed - stitch by stitch - into this piece of textile art.

Sechs Monate später - und ich kann endlich die letzten Handgriffe angehen, um dieses Herzensprojekt zu beenden. Meint: Mehr Perlen, mehr Glitzer, mehr Gedanken und mehr Bannsprüche, die ich mit jedem Stich in diesem Stück Textilkunst vernähe.

Apropos: Ihr wollt was gegen den wieder erwachsenden Faschismus tun? Dann unterschreibt doch bitte noch diese Petition gegen ein Register von trans und nonbinary Personen. Danke.

Embroidery hoop with white fabric in it. Embroidered are the words "Protect Trans Kids" in black embroidery floss. Alongside is a Kanzashi flower, the petals are in the trans colours (pink, blue, white). The flower is bedazzled with pearls and glass beads, strings of rocailles are also growing out of it's center. All of them in shades of the colour scheme of the petals. Bigger blue eye pearls (arabic Nazar eyes against evil things) are sewns onto the fabric, part of them surrounded by small facetted, pink and blue glass beads. Around the hoops are plastic sachets with the pearls and one big string with the Nazar pearls.

If you have some random skeins of yarn you won't use, find them a good home and put them towards a good cause! #Craftivism

Ich habe mich immer elendig gefühlt, weil ich nicht (oder nur selten) auf die Straße kann, um da zu demonstrieren.
Vor ein paar Monaten die Revelation, dass ich Online-Aktivistin bin.

Ein gutes Label für eigene Aktionen, Teilnahme an anderen, Info-Hub für viele andere sein. Oft übersehene, aber gleichfalls wichtige Arbeit.

Ich will und würde oft so viel mehr machen, wenn ich könnte. An ganz schlechten Tagen kann ich zumindest reingucken und Informationen weiterverbreiten. Wenigstens das.

Meine Gedanken dazu, nachdem @Skreee bei #Bluesky heute schrieb:
"Behinderten und chronisch kranken Menschen bleibt oft nix anderes als "online Aktivismus"."

This is my bookmark submission for the Spellbound Stitches Volume 5 Bookmark Book for Humanitarian & Immigration Aid! I'm representing the Classic Literature chapter with my take on the Lady of the Lake from Arthurian legend.
Details: sites.google.com/view/spellbou

#Crossstitch #kingarthur #ladyofthelake #craftivism #books #needlework #fiberarts

A cross stitched bookmark on deep magenta fabric depicting a medieval sword with a golden crown.  A silver-haired, feminine looking creature peeks their head up from water, their long hair floating and a lilypad is nearby.  BAD Stitch

It is quite interesting and bit icky that you can tell where bronze scultures have been touched repeatedly #rosesagainstviolence #stopgenderbasedviolence #craftivism #yarnbombing #crochet #crochetsky #roses #flowers #rostock #bronze

A close up of the sculpture showing the womans head with the attached crochet rose.
The rose has a label with a hand print saying. "Stop genderbased violence!" #rosesagainstviolence
The woman's chin, lips and nose have noticeably lighter bronze colour from touching.

These sculptures are part of a fountain called "Brunnen der Lebensfreude" (joy of life fountain) but locals only call it the "Porn Fountain". Seemed a good spot for #rosesagainstviolence #stopgenderbasedviolence #craftivism #yarnbombing #crochet #crochetsky #roses #flowers #rostock #bronze 1/2

A bronze sculture of a man and a woman. Both are naked the man is sitting and balances the woman with one arm on his shoulder. The woman is hold in a horizontal position with her face looking up. Both are part of a fountain.
A purple crochet rose is tied around her neck. With a label attached. The label says Stop Gender-Based Violence #rosesagainstviolence
