I've been saying from election night that we would see an arch Duke Fernand moment in the first year. I didn't expect it in the first month. What an utter embarrassment.

In which Opal tries to get out of bed, but it doesn't work. I feel you, girlfriend.

So...my eggs aren't cheaper. If I'm going to live with orange nonsense for the next 4 yrs, imma need cheap eggs as promised. Yesterday. Oh, and gas under $2, too.

Asking for realsies because I don't know the answer: what is a federal DEI worker?

I went to the office today. The view is amazing, but I've only been back 3 times since Covid. With all the RTO nonsense, I'm so happy to work for a company that voted to stay home & celebrates the benefits as one of our greatest advantages. I don't ever worry about being asked to return.

My brother asked me to repair this quilt for him after my nephew, his only child, died in Sept. It was made (terribly) by my grandmother, who wasn't always a good person. I am taking it apart stitch by stitch to re-quilt the top on to new backing. It's like I'm healing generational trauma.

Sewing friends: I found this address on another site. The Friends of Pine Ridge Reservation are asking for donations of fabric, notions, and patterns. If you're doing spring cleaning maybe consider these folks.

My thought for this Tuesday ☕️☕️☕️

Sentimental Moment or Why Did the Baguette Cross the Road? Don't fill up on bread I say absent-mindedly The servings here are huge My son, whose hair may be receding a bit, says Did you really just say that to me? What he doesn't know is that when we're walking together, when we get to the curb I sometimes start to reach for his hand —Robert Hershon

This wrecks me—every single time.

Train up your child in the way he should go, and when he is older, he will grow up and beat TTUN*

Update on the Bernina 730 learning curve. Use different backing, don't spray the fabric adhesive like aquanet in 1987.

Thank you, my friend. Maybe I'll make you one sometime & then you can have 2 scarves from me, 40 years apart. One for our youth & one for our beautiful boys.

I wish I remembered all the patterns I've used for these, but I kind of made them in a fog. I really like how the black one turned out. 🏳️‍🌈🧶

This is my grieving mama big girl britches week. I've been making these pride scarves off & on to donate to our local queer youth center in memory of my son. I've done a lot of work on unfinished conversations & letting go. It's time. 🧶🏳️‍🌈

This is pretty cool.

I want it to curl a little less. It curls up even more when I'm wearing it.

I love the herringbone pattern. Congrats on nearly being finished!

Malibrigo yarn in Frank Ochre, so insanely soft! And yes, that's my Progressive apron in the background, such an amazing company to work for, especially these days.

Opal & I are in negotiations about how close her princess bed should be to the space heater in my office. She won, obvi. 🐈

I'm loving mix & match loose layers lately. I even bought those puzzle piece blocking squares. Still haven't blocked it.

It's the me that notices that keep my therapist in business. 😁

I'm obsessed with it! I think I want to get it in the worsted weight & make a chunkier long sleeve sweater.

Diams pattern by Faïza Mebazaa Diams is an oversized cropped cardigan that is both casual and feminine, and a great layering piece. Its unusual construction and nice finishing touches make for a relaxing yet interesting knitting ex...
