  5. Every single time I #sew anything, I get pricked by the pins and needles... like constantly, the whole time. By nightfall, my hands are a mass of band-aids.
    Yet every single time I'm shocked and gasp loudly.
    It's a day of gasping and band-aids.
    But it's always such a surprise.
    Every time.

  6. ❌ couture ✅ curtains

    this is my 24-hr outfit challenge for yesterday's concert. it's made of deadstock fabric on clearance at $1.37/yard. I didn't have time to clean it up, some top stitches to be redone but I was already able to wear it out so that's a win.

  14. The #clothespin bags we made from old t-shirts were finally worn out. Our BFF returned from #NewZealand with a gift for us—this well-made new clothespin #apron. We’ve just one tip for its #seamstress: Separate the pockets (for reasons we explain in our 2009 post, The Beauty of #Clotheslines bikemonterey.org/educating-nei).

  20. Visited the Enchanted #Fantasy #Museum of #Film #TV & #Streaming at #MaplewoodMall in the #TwinCities yesterday. They dropped their entrance fee to $15 for adults and $10 for kids 5 and up and free for kids under 5.

    This is a very big collection of #costumes and #props from various recent and past productions and it was very interesting to see up close. I got to meet the owner during the tour, who has worked in the industry and has acquired this collection over the years and wanted to share it.

    If you are interested you should check it out.

    'Get Emilie!'

    This request, or something to that effect, was the final words spoken by Gustav Klimt before he passed from this world during the influenza epidemic of 1918. A call for his companian of over 20 years - a friendship that inspired them both but remained shrouded in mystery for the rest of the world

    Klimt met Emilie Fröge when his brother married her sister in 1891. She was 18 years old and he was in his 30s but over the years their relationship matured into one that was intellectually and emotionally charged, rather than one based on the physical.

    Emilie was a free spirited and talented seamstress creating the 'reform dress' - a loose fitted garment intended to free women’s bodies from the traditionally restrictive corset which hindered them from fully participating in society. Klimt for his oart would often paint his models wearing these designs..

    Although Klimt wrote over 400 letters and cards to his companion there is no evidence of a more physically intimate relationship. Klimt never addresses her in romantic terms. Neither ever married but their bond as a couple was, without doubt, an inspiration for both.

  23. Thought I'd ask around here as well:

    Do you have any suggestions for beginner friendly #sewing patterns for tops? I want to make some of my own clothes, already accumulated a fabric stash but can't seem to find the right patterns to get started.

    Most of my fabrics that I have are woven, but there are 1 or 2 jerseys as well. Indie patterns are preferred, but suggestions for commercial ones or books are welcome too

  24. Weaving, sewing, quilting, tapestries — these arts were part of what common people did in the times that inspire fantasy storytelling. It’s rare that these professions are featured as heroes, but they should be. They are community leaders or practitioners of the quiet circle, often of women unempowered in a society.

    From these origins one may rise to be a powerful Artificer, a storytelling Bard, a Mastermind Rogue, a healing Druid, a Cleric of Peace, a vengeful Paladin. Or something else.

    The weaver is not soft, though they can make great fabrics. A quilter is not necessarily warm to all. These are the people who toil with nimble fingers and converse with those too often overlooked by authority.

    These are the people who see destiny in fabric.

    Clothier

    You are an independent artisan who makes fabric or clothes or blankets. Your specific art is less important than what you do with it. Your friends and colleagues know things and count on you.

    Authority may overlook your presence, but you know their tenor and can hide what they are looking for — whether that’s a person or a thing.

    Skill Proficiencies: Insight, Sleight of Hand
    Tool Proficiencies: Disguise Kit, Weaver’s Tools
    Languages: No additional
    Equipment: Blanket, 3 candles, chalk, cloths (either common or winter), 3 needles, spool of thread, pouch, 5 gold

    Feature: As the Wheel Wills

    You have a certain comfort and understanding that you aren’t always in control. You have advantage on saves against fear, charm and other enchantments after the first round in these conditions.

    Additionally, you are able to find and protect secrets. When using Insight or Sleight of Hand to keep or discover secrets you do so with double proficiency.

    Personality: use the Folk Hero and Guild Artisan as guidance.

    Design Goals

    Avoiding the Folk Hero’s problem of “if you’re already a hero you shouldn’t be level 1” is my primary goal with the Clothier. It’s the primary goal with many of the backgrounds I’ve created. Common people become heroes through playing D&D — although someday I’ll make a False Hero, one who hasn’t yet been heroic.

    Fernando Pessoa once said “Sometimes, when I wake up at night, I feel invisible hands weaving my destiny.”

    I also wanted to capture the magic of weaving and other arts of cloth. These aren’t arts that I understand. They are arts that I want to celebrate.

    From the literature that inspires D&D the lines from Wheel of Time about “the Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills” prodded me into action.

    Finally there are some important quilters in my life. This background goes out to them too. Whether by stitch, by arms long or short, they are the fabric of our lives. A quilter can tell a story in squares and thread. Hopefully this story helps tell theirs.

  25. So today is Button Day (began 1938). My grandma left me her collection of buttons, along with two of her sewing baskets, & a biscuit tin full of notions (a British band name, perhaps? “Biscuit Tin of Notions”).
