As @fosis.bsky.social says, this print is very bright in person! (True dayglo ink is a bit challenging to photo, brightest in daylight given extra UV response)
Oh yeah definitely the one thing sci fi and fantasy has been missing is the male gaze

#Skystorians it is not too late to book for this in person summer school course, in London 8-12 June, where we cover the basics of working with medieval manuscripts. Ideal for graduate students, #librarians, or anyone with an interest in medieval books.
It's 10pm on a Saturday night and I have just finished writing an archive catalogue for an imaginary photography club for uni.
The time has come for us, as an organisation, to boycott @pinknews.bsky.social.
Despite reservations about the company, we have sometimes worked with queer and trans reporters there to tell stories we thought were important for our community - the same as other outlets.
That ends today. Why?

Fun Saturday night applying for a project archivist job... Fingers crossed for me please 🤞
Trying to catch up on archives masters study on a Sunday night because I've been too busy with overtime in the archive & slow surgery recovery and may have written an annoyed rant about local authority archivists being overworked and over capacity on a discussion board, oops

Please keep your fingers crossed for me that I didn't mangle trying to explain how I feel about gender roles in embroidery and motorsports
A magazine wrote an article about my F1 art and have been kinda crappy about sharing anything with me so I've been super anxious about whether they wrote something that I feel actually represents me, I'm finally getting my copy of the magazine tomorrow so I can find out what it says 😂
I didn't know that, interesting! Love the quilt.
One colourway, two variations!
And as promised... it wasn't a 100% Honse. But Ferrari still could have done better. Enjoy! #F1

Photo of 3 sawtooth star quilt blocks in cream, pinks and oranges
Start of a new quilting project - I have 7 colourways, each with 3 variations, and making 3 blocks of each variation. Adding sashing as well to make a full king size 100 inch quilt with double layered batting, no idea where I'll lay it out to make the sandwich or how I'll fit it through my machine 😂
If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!
