Just finished “painting” with thread on this dragon panel. Definitely worth zooming in for details.

In shades of red, black, and gray, this quilt began its journey as a Bargello design, but alas, fate had other plans. Faced with unexpected challenges along the way, I found myself unraveling the original pattern in a moment of frustration. However, from the ashes of disappointment emerged a new vision as I carefully cut the quilt into blocks and meticulously reassembled them.

And if you look closely, nestled in the lower left corner, you'll find a subtle homage to our storied voyages—a miniature depiction of the legendary USS Enterprise, a symbol of exploration and adventure in the boundless expanse of space. In this unexpected twist of creativity, the quilt not only tells a tale of perseverance but also serves as a reminder of the ever-present spirit of discovery that guides us on our cosmic odyssey.

Meowrimos

These tiny mossball kitties come from the same ponds and streams as koi dogs, and are often found rolling around with baby guppies. They may be small, but each one packs a big personality!

These meowrimos are being set aside for Anthrocon, July 5th-7th in Pittsburgh, PA! Find me in the dealer’s den, or $5+ patrons can order custom meows any time!

Knitting colourwork with the wrong side out works wonders for the tension of the floats. However, many people get confused by the concept and think you have to purl instead or knit the wrong way.

But no, all you have to do is to turn the wrong side out, so that you are knitting on the inside of the circle and the floats are on the outside.

True, it is a bit annoying that you cannot admire the pattern while knitting, but you will be lavishly rewarded for this little inconvenience when you see how even your knitting looks!

Shown here is the cuff of the StripesNFlowers Mitts. Pattern available on Ravelry.

Join me tonight at the reception for Claims of Harm, a group show highlighting SAIC community members (where I’ll be showing off my shiny new alumni card) examining cultures of harm in our society, and the ways in which we can address them. My piece Pallid Mourning is included in the show, and there are other amazing pieces you don’t want to miss!

Non SAIC people, you’ll need a state ID to get into the building. It’s in the first floor gallery of the Sharp Building!

RECEPTION: Thursday, April 25, 4 – 6 pm.

37 S. Wabash Ave., Chicago, IL, 60603 (SAIC Sharp building)

Found some thread that sparked joy in th darkest corner of the yarn store today. So now I can make some green and peach patches too. And that green is a pretty perfect shade for lichen.

Do you ever have an autism moment and realise that most people don't have the encyclopedic knowledge that you do ?

Like I just realised that most people don't have a thorough knowledge of historic textile production (⁠･⁠o⁠･⁠;⁠)
