Venus anttrap brooches in progress.

I’ve made different designs before, but this design is my favorite so far!

Listing them in my Etsy shop next week!

アリトリソウブローチ制作中。過去に何度か違うデザインでハエトリソウブローチを作ってるけど、今回のが一番気に入ってるかも。来週Etsyショップに出す予定!

You know this website really has changed Tom Hiddleston is being gay as fuck in a TV show and I've seen maybe two posts about it. If that had happened 10 to 12 years ago it would have been inescapable it would have been truly radically inescapable you would have not been able to get away from it

first assigned reading in my textile history class is about orientalism and the political appropriation of the paisley print and kashmir shawl by the british written by a south asian researcher

"in this essay i would like to offer a way of reading pattern and textile history as political and ideological" sickos yes ha ha ha yes . jpeg

Lots of posts out there about falling down a Textile Hole where you start doing yarn stuff and then acquire drop spindles and spinning wheels and looms and then start dreaming about having a sheep farm, but that's far from the only kind.

You can also start off sewing and pattern drafting and embroidering and then your vintage sewing machine is acting up so you snag another one for super cheap while that one's being fixed, and then that one also needs fixing and you had a bad and expensive experience with the repairman so you look up youtube videos on how to do it yourself, and then a friend of a relative is decluttering and gives you an antique treadle which mostly just needs a lot of cleaning, and then you find 2 more vintage cast iron machines for dirt cheap at a garage sale and hey how hard could it be to replace a rotten wooden case?
