In responding to a Tesla owner group acct, Elon Musk says they're removing the ability to block people except that you can block people from DMing you.
I deleted my acct last week. Recommend the rest of you do the same.
It's not done yet, but it's the facing, collar, and cuffs for the patchwork dressing gown I'm working on! It was less than half a metre of silk/rayon velvet that I dyed in college because the sample we did of that colour was so nice I wanted a bigger piece. (It was PRO MX fibre reactive dye in the colour Marine, and I don't have my dye sample book with me right now but I think it was at 4%. It shows up more green on some fibres and more blue on others, but is always gorgeous.)
I had no specific plans for it at the time, but eventually the perfect project came along, and there was just enough!
I've been working on this thing (intermittently, in short busts) for a few years now, and am finally done the patchwork and on to the construction. I've posted occasional updates on @vincentbriggs and will post photos there when I'm done.
I've also been filming the whole process, so I'll have a video about it up on my youtube channel eventually, but that'll be a while after it's finished because I have so so so many clips and it's going to take a horrifyingly large amount of editing.
It's based on this c. 1835 original, which is a good 50-100 years later than what I usually sew, but I like it and I wanted one.
If anyone's wondering how many triangles mine has, it's 6,957.
Since I've got the time consuming part out of the way I'm hoping I can get the construction done before winter officially ends.
Edit: Why does everyone think I had a bad time working on the triangles?? I loved working on them, it was so satisfying to put lots of little bits of colour together. The reason I worked on it intermittently is because I could not put it down once I got working on it, and would work on it all day for several days straight until I was very tired and sore, and then I had to put it away to stop myself, and then I'd forget about it for a few months.
Also, they're machine sewn. Most of the actual garment construction will be by hand, but the patchwork is all by machine.
i want to build up my skill set to one day be able to make something like this!!!! #op this is 1) absolutely gorgeous & 2) so much helpful information! thank u for sharing 🥰 #all the shots of twirling in the finished garment made me so so happy i got a little teary-eyed??? #‘it looks very nice. it reminds me of — you know when people have extra nipples?’ #absolutely Took Me Out i hollered #like that comment toward the end of such an earnest video? so unexpected. so fucking hilarious

I finished my dressing gown.
And besides the velvet, it of course used up a lot of other little bits of fabric!
(Once again, my sewing and other non-dinosaur works are mainly posted on @vincentbriggs)
Video finished :)
It's an hour and 13 minutes long and I say 11,785 words in it.
Thank you!! Good luck on your sewing! And I'm glad my Very Correct nipple observations were appreciated
A comic about the spectrum of responses to stress - we talk alot about the more extreme ends of this and trauma, but the more subtle and every day responses can be harder to spot. if we can understand our own and other’s responses better, problems Are easier to confront and blaming is less likely to happen :) hope it’s helpful!!
Happy birthday to the owl man ever, Barbertos! One of my favorite OCs I've ever made, and he never stops being fun to draw ever, I love him dearly!
I struggled a bit to get this one going, but I'm happy with the results none the less! This is supposed to take place a few months before his big journey in the campaign he's in. Holding onto a crucial amulet that makes him question his own memories.
I wanted to get this out before the end of the day, so I'm missing one thing, so consider this the alt version for now.
