Felt - Tumblr Posts
second patch for today. I used a little bit of this paisley quilting fabric in the middle, otherwise it's felt and embroidery thread..
if I was a sincereist, this is probably the heart I would be wearing on my sleeve. working small has been fun, but I should plan out something nice and complicated tomorrow.
Today I made a Christmas ornament. (and also did muh nails)
it is a snowflake made out of felt. I stuffed it with the little scrappy bits of felt that I had leftover so it's a bit of a little pillow. it looks good and is now hanging on my tree.
Yes, I copied the design off something I found on pinterest. because I am a hack. you'll note I didn't do as good of a job of it as Jody Bishel does, so I don't feel too bad about it.
Cascadia flag patches.
done by me in cotton DMC thread on post-consumer polyester felt.
I'm feeling derivative tonight. so sue me.
also, these are Christmas presents, BUT FOR WHOM??
I made a case for my old DSlite. at first I couldn't think of what I wanted as a design that would be cultured and urbane, sophisticated yet speak to a general audience. and then I was like, fuck that, why not an icecream cone?
I think it turned out rather nicely. it's made out of craft felt and embroidery thread. I might make another one later.
I made another thing. it's a felt box for my tarot cards, so the symbol on it is a pretty classic an anti-evil eye ward. These are fun to make!
also my hair looks fab today. art selfies, amirite?
I made a finger puppet.
Why? Because sometimes the muse moves me.
amanita, muscaria coaster. I like it much, it turned out rather nice.
the white is secretly glow-in-the dark. shushhhh.

Do you think people used to have ADHD Text Reply Anxiety back in the day. Do you think there was some girl in the 1870s going "Oh, a letter from Esther, how delightful! I must make time to write her a reply this evening!" And then later she was like "It has been 5 months since Esther wrote me, and I am yet to reply. I fear I have tarried far too long, and if she receives a letter from me now it will seem terribly rude and she will want nothing to do with me. And yet, it is ruder still to not write her at all! I fear I am the only one to blame for my current predicament, as I am most terribly forgetful. Ah, but what a fool I am! I shall pray this evening for guidance from the Lord"
Behold, the fella!
Made him kind of flat on purpose so he doesn't take up too much space and end up leaning forward a lot. ( he still kinda does but oh well ) Mainly made because I thought "hehehe what if I made it so that it could stick out of pockets or something, that'd be cute."
anyways! HIM! It's kinda fuzzy; I know. Could've worked on it a bit longer to refine some things but it's better than nothing. The eye with the spot looks especially rough but ya can only redo the eye so many times until you just kind of give up. I want to make a Cat one too but I ran out of the yellow felt, sadly. Curse you, small felt portions from kits!!! Didn't plan on adding the stray hairs at first but I salvaged some string from another thing in the kit and tried by best.
sometimes i think i’m a fantastic writer and sometimes i think i deserve the death penalty for sucking so bad. no in between
feltmega!
me, crying while scribbling angrily in my diary: jungkook was cute again today
Really wish people could see into our brain, but that also comes with the con of people being able to see into our brain. Ya know man? - 💕
Here's the thing I keep trying to articulate and possibly failing: I don't actually mind characters who are terrible people. I have enjoyed many. What I mind is characters who are terrible people while the narrative keeps trying to say that they are wonderful, often contradicting what the narrative shows us, with no self awareness
