I’ve been enjoying it! It’s a welcome change from other apps.

Made a pot for my plant 🌿✨

Went on a mini-road trip with my dog and parents today. I was in it for the puppy cuddles and seeing Spring arrive in the Ozarks.

Fabric dark and light pink

Dog sleeping on a quilt

If you find one, please let me know. I went to a library with a friend who wanted books & I told them I wasn’t looking for any, I’m reading a lot. They didn’t get any, and I got a few.

Witch Hazel

Yeah! Weird does not mean ethical or good. 😆 I had to study his films in a class at Stony Brook, the same year Mulholland Drive came out.
Ughh — it’s that kind of male gaze storytelling that is at minimal annoying and more likely harmful.

Light through raindrops and a tree silhouette.

Tiny blackberry leaves covered in dried leaves

My blackberry friend survived all the deep cold we’ve had… I’m sure we’ll have more cold, but there’s berries in the future (and my freezer from last year).

I never watched it, but that sums up my general opinion of Lynch.

Bins containing clay and sieves to process Arkansas clay.

Learning to process “wild” clay. This is from Benton, AR and near where Niloak pottery is from. The class is at Fifth Street Studios in Bentonville.

my stitches are messy, but I’m slowly moving along.

Working on my quilt’s binding. Ceramic spool that I made, and leather thimble that a good friend made me…

Decolonizing Conservation Reading List (Version 2.0) I’ve decided to migrate the Reading List to a new platform, and I will no longer be updating the original google document (although I will keep the previous version publicly available online)…

📚 Are you working in biodiversity conservation? This reading list is a starting point for non-Indigenous & settler folks to learn about colonial roots in conservation and why supporting Indigenous leadership is essential. Explore topics & resources to dive in: bit.ly/decolonizing... 🧪🦑🌍🦤

woman’s lap with a coffee mug in her hand, a book, and quilt

Morning with coffee in a mug made by a friend, a book (The Hour of the Star, Clarice Lispector), and quilt my mom and I collaborated on in 2020, made with cyanotypes from plants in our yard in NW Arkansas.

Thanks! Yes — still working on it, and will definitely be sharing more of it. ☺️

The inside of a camera obscura I made (with help from a friend). Essentially, it was like sitting in a camera made of pallets & hay.
