Wow, getting a lot of crappy ads now in Craftiverse. As soon as it says embroidered or something at all crafty, yay, it's a craft and belongs in craftiverse! But it's an ad from a Chinese purveyor of mass-produced commercial goods.
A pock marked tree trunk stretches up to the blue sky. It wears a tuft of branches and leaves.
My favourite tree at #carkeekpark, a big leaf maple.
Nice! I missed getting sunset on the peak of Mt Constance a couple of days ago due to cloud/smoke. I'm a bit further north than you.
A sunset-lit strip of cloud floats over Shilshole marina in Seattle. It is reminiscent of a picture of the Milky Way. It is reflected in the water along with the masts of the yachts moored there.
This place. 😍 Shilshole Marina, Seattle, USA.
No. BIG urchins!
The sun is just peeking over a distant mountain range. The sky is yellow and orange and is reflected in Puget Sound.

It's been such a long time since I saw the sun set over the Olympics. It's been very cloudy until recently.
Go to my LYS for a new knitting needle, come home with new yarns! Stripy rainbow yarn! #alwaysbekindyarn
Sad face. My team lost. By almost the smallest margin possible. First game of the year. On the other hand, their opponents are supposed to be flag favourites so.... #melbournefc #godees
I finished something! Hooray! This is "Like, Totally Quilt", a pattern by Louise Wackerman, a block of the month with Seattle Modern Quilt Guild. I chose a royal blue (Riviera by Kona Cottons) along with yellow, orange, lime, teal and red as the contrasts. #finishedobjects #modernquilts #quilts
Yellow daffodils leaning over, looking down. A bit glum.
Sad daffodils.

I finished knitting #westknitsmkal2024 #gogodynamo way back in November, and then immediately left for Australia. Finally blocking now nearly 3 months later.
No chance to be anxious knitting that, you have to pay attention to every row! #mindfulknitting
Why won't bluesky remember me on my laptop? And my browser doesn't remember my password so I'm stuck using the poxy phone, which loves to auto carrot every second word.

Belly rubs for Pooper. She has murder paws.
Happy Pooper.
I couldn't work out what this reply was responding to - bsky wouldn't tell me, so helpful. Oh, the kookaburra! Yes, maybe I'd have a nice sausage or something for him.
Been hanging close to "home". All of the socialising caught up with us and our novid status is no longer. Ah well. Went for a short stagger and saw some roos. Didn't want to get closer with that jacked male grey watching me carefully.
Kookaburra sitting in a gum tree. Merry merry king of the bush is he (or she).
Kookaburra! (Cook-a-burra) Sitting in an old gum tree.
The Yarra River passes over layers of rock forming tiny rapids. Grasses and bulrushes line the banks with gum trees in the background.
The Yarra River near Warrandyte. It's good to be home.
I go to Japan and buy Liberty of London fabrics. Go figure.
Gingko trees in their full yellow autumnal splendour in Shinjuku Gyoen National Gardens, Tokyo.
Not Seattle.
Sounds nice! I mostly buy quilting fabrics. I did indeed buy a set of Tula Pink fabric. I will see it in Feb when we get back from our big trip.

Seattle turned on a lovely afternoon for us! Even got to see the sun set, a rare treat at this time of year. #sunset #seattle #pugetsound

Couple of pics from the other day. November is being pretty grim here in Seattle, the last reasonably sunny day was 11 days ago.
I have not bought fabric for umm.... nearly three weeks! Unless you count the interfacing I bought to finish a project with. I think I shall go buy some Tula right now before it all sells out.
You devil! I agree.
Bias towards certain Victorian teams, certainly.
Another pic. Chum salmon, plus one pretty red not chum at the local park. It's a really good run this year.
So why do Carlton, Collingwood and Geelong get to do so little travel?
New place to hang out! Still plugging away at my #westknitsmkal2024
