Stitching away on some small planters with leftover linen that was dyed using rust and Sumac last fall.

The spikey piece is a flax hackle (or heckle) one of the steps used to process flax into linen.

The topiary is Mrytle and smells so good. 😊

“There will be 10,000 people [protesting] outside the stadium and 5-6,000 inside the stadium.”

As of Monday, only 4,000 tickets were sold for next Tuesday’s match.

Gaza is Palestinian land. It always will be.
Trump is a convicted felon. If he attempts to invade Gaza the United States will be become a gangster regime.
But his threats amount to crimes against humanity.
The world needs to be there for the children ofGaza.

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

Handmade quilt. Linen dyed with iron and tannins.

Getting back to this quilt after putting it away for a bit. It's made with remnants of iron and tannin dyed linen from other projects I was working on. The plan is to handstitch the top - so, it should be done in the next decade or so. 😊

I played with this yesterday and it's incredibly cool.

It also works extremely well as a progressive webapp if you install it to your home screen on Android — don't let the lack of a native Android version dissuade you from trying it!

Thanks April! Are you buried in snow? I picture you cozy in your studio surrounded by a winter wonderland. Maybe I'm just romanticizing it. 😄

Thanks Janine! I'm really pleased with it. It's a smaller piece - I think the next step is to scale it up. Fingers crossed.
