Tesla down 15%.

Now is the time to double down on protests.

The far right showed what they can do with Bud Light.

Let those who support LGBTQ+ people, immigrants, government workers, and diversity show what we can do with Tesla.

Those driving Teslas should be seen as collaborators.

I think I’ll start with view b and then view a. I’m a sucker for a big sleeve cuff

Do you know which view you’ll make first??

A model with braids pulled back in a half-up do is wearing a linen, dolman sleeve blouse with a contrast facing and contrast cuffs and a shawl collar. The main fabric is a cream and brown plaid and the contrast fabric is a white, green and blue floral pattern.

It’s so frustrating! So much of their extended sizing is like this.

Also gotta love how the straight size version comes in *8* colors and extended sizing can only get 1 🙂‍↔️

On the left a thin model is wearing a prarie style white gathered dress with room in the bust and ample room in the hips for a relaxed, comfortable fit. The plus sized model on the right is *theoretically* wearing a larger size of the same dress but the fit it very different. The bodice is much tighter and there is not a ton of room in the hips. The fit is completely different from the one on straight size model.

CD out here again with shitty plus sized grading. That is a completely different fit on the plus model. Plus size folks deserve roomy breezy garments too! 😤

I’m posing in front of a tree in dappled sunlight. Wearing an orange gathered blouse with large gathered sleeves. There are 4 buttons down a front half-placket.

This is my year of big romantic sleeves! I just finished up this #Rosewynblouse I’m pattern testing. I’m excited to make the dress version in some lightweight white fabric for a victorian ghost nightgown vibe 👻

use of starvation of a civilian population as a weapon of war is a completely unambiguous war crime

Beautiful! With this kind of mend, do you put interfacing or a patch on the inside to stabilize it?

Join BDS for the long-term, which is having a real impact on their bottom line. It's been going for 20 years, and it's never too late to start!

In addition to these, don't buy Israeli products like Sabra, or produce grown in Israel (dates, avocados, etc). Takes some effort, but you can do it!

I also lowered the neckline by 1/4” but I’ll do closer to 1” next time because it’s still not comfortable to button all the way up.

I’m showing off my freshly made green and white cotton, mandarin collar button-down. The sun is very bright so I’m shielding my eyes and showing off my pretty sleeve plackets at the same time 😂.

Finished up the first Cornell shirt I’ve made for myself and I’m a big fan. I shortened the bodice and sleeves by 4”. I’m 5’5” and the pattern is drafted for 5’8”, but I went by my preferred finished garment length which is a bit shorter.

As close as I get to a perfect placket 🥳

Another big milestone for our tiny tapir! Ume has her very first tooth coming in and has started mouthing at food and hay. It won’t be long before she’s munching away like mom Yuna! For now, we’re soaking up every adorable moment of her wiggly little nose exploring new items behind the scenes.

It is very cozy. It’s hard not to see it as a little Hugh Hefner-esque though 😂😂

It’s the Paola workwear jacket (free pattern!) but I rounded the collar a bit
