A small child in pajamas kneels on a black stool in front of a stove top. Two towels hang fun the oven door handle. One is orange, the other black. The black towel hangs between the child's knees.
Kiddo has been looking for the egg hidden in the towel at his knees for half an hour ๐คฃ
I do love the egg hunt!

This falls under #1, but search for every use of the word "that" and make the sentence more concise.
Ooh that's such a fun poster! โบ๏ธ I don't think I've ever seen a podcast related poster at a conference.
Lol fair enough!
Many sewists just sew in our underwear ๐๐คซ
A folded black shirt says "nice rack" and shows the inside of a computer track. Before the rack is www.atipa.com, HPC and AI system integrator
I mean.. this shirt was only a couple years ago...
You can get the rotary blades at hardware storesuit. Or Walmart or Amazon. ๐๐ป
A gray canvas wristlet sits on a wood desk. It's handle has basic color blocked embroidery to cover up the icky old gray
Spent my flight on the way to the @acs.org Spring Meeting embroidering my purse handle because I realized last night that it was ratty.
I'll be the one sewing during sessions โบ๏ธ

This made me giggle. A lot.

Happily he didn't throw up. I had a whole work day to myself today!
Have had kids home sick off and on (mostly on) for over two weeks. The little one just said he feels like he might puke.
I just finished my Sanna! And have plans to make at least one more. Definitely going to make one of those t-shirts as well ๐
This is SO lovely ๐
A white woman stands in an office workspace. She is wearing jeans and a bold striped shirt. The stripes are blue, red, Grey, and gold. The shirt has a dropped shoulder and 3/4 length sleeve
The back of a woman standing with hand on her hips. Her shirt is covered with bold stripes that match perfectly across the keyhole details in the shirt.
An arm wearing a 3/4 sleeve shirt and teal watch. The shirt has bold stripes and a pleated detail mid-forearm that gives the shirt an interesting shape.
Finished the shirt! All that pinning for the pattern matching was worth it ๐ I love the sleeve pleats!
Next time I make the pattern I'll move that middle keyhole a bit to cover my bra strap. But the little patch is just fine.

A stripey piece of fabric lays in front of a sewing machine. It has about 30 pins attaching it to the fabric on the other side
A shirt sleeve showing a variety of blue. Gold, and red lines that perfectly match up at the seam. Perfectly!
Who is this sewist and what has she done with my cavalier attitude toward pattern matching?

I made one. I almost never wear it because the pattern was poor. Sleeves are ridiculously wide, etc. I need to fix the dress to make it wearable and have just never gotten to it.. the mood one looks great though!
The shirt dress? I really thought that was cute too.
It feels so nice! It's really soft ๐
Thank you!
The short sleeve of a shirt. The fabric is light teal with splatters of dark teal and burnt orange. It has a faint silver pattern printed over it. The body of the shirt has a flower pattern and the sleeve has a lattice pattern.
The bottom hem of a shirt. The fabric is light teal with splatters of dark teal and burnt orange. It has a faint silver pattern printed over it. The body of the shirt has a flower pattern and the hem has a polka dot pattern.
A selfie of a white woman with brown hair wearing sunglasses. Her shirt is short sleeve with a v neck. The fabric is light teal with splatters of dark teal and burnt orange. It has a faint silver pattern printed over it.
Finally finished this shirt! It's a gorgeous Nani Iro double gauze with faint silver patterns printed across it. I used the polka dot edge at the hem of the shirt and the lattice print on the sleeves.
Got it at the Portland Fashion Institute shop this summer as a souvenir.

Thank you! It was super fun to make, and the kids all loved it.
Rice krispie treats arranged on a platter. Chocolate with green frosting for grass blocks and a castle made of red blocks. Various Lego Minecraft characters are placed around the scene.

Minecraft rice krispies for my kiddos birthday party. The red bricks don't look quite so meaty irl.. birthday kid added the drunk guy to the scene ๐

I'm not "that kind" of doctor. ..unless we're talking about stuffed animals. In that case I'm practically Doc McStuffins lately!

Do you like your Fibremood subscription? I've considered getting one..
Let me know if you need help! I know a good coach who can work with you on that ๐
Oh for sure! I spend a lot of time working on that too.
Also, sometimes at that level what seems like hubris can be a cover up for imposter feelings.
Are you feeling like you're not good enough, you only got here by luck, or that โtheyโ are going to figure out you're a phony and take it all away?
Do you find yourself doing any of these things in order to avoid those feelings?
