This quilt has a massive split near the edge that I am repairing with cluster of flower appliqués.
It is getting a new binding too, but I think I need to stabilize the edge a bit with the patches first.
I am going to have to make so many flowers!

ID: [A 20 inch quilt made out of yellow and purple fabric, with a larger center panel and an outer border made of squares. In the center panel, silhouettes of people sitting at a picnic are appliqued on, as well as the text "Has this ever happened before?". Image 2 is a zoomed in close up of one of the appliqued figures.]
final project for my feminist disability studies class that i made in 3 hours today! I illustrated a scene from the film Every Body that has archival footage from the first ever meeting of intersex society of north america, where there's these ten intersex people sitting on a picnic blanket, openly talking about surviving medical violence and trauma and grief. and there's this really powerful moment of reclamation where one of the activists says "10 hermaphrodites in one place-has this ever happened before?" so i made this quilt and wrote an essay talking about systemic ableism, intersex is/as/with disability, and how feminist politics of crip futurity provide a framework for us to think about intersex futures and celebrate intersex joy.
literally procrastinated on this project for so long and did the essay and quilt today, so glad i finished it before the deadline. thought i'd share with the intersexy mutuals <3

This weeks quilt mending adventures include appliqueing a patch, cross-stitching for reinforcement over fraying seams with invisible thread, and re-doing some decorative embroidery on panels where it was partially unraveled

Community Garden
This 53″ x 46″ quilt was made for the 2023 Brooklyn Quilts! show put on by the Brooklyn Quilters Guild. It was completed in February 2023. It is mostly machine pieced with hand-appliqued triangles sewn on the borders. The middle panel is quilted with roses and the borders are quilted with leaves. The binding is a rainbow patchwork made with the same fabrics as the triangles. Over the last year…

Embroidery Journal: Quilting + Applique For Only-Vaguely-Nefarious Purposes
I've finally cleared out my commission backlog enough to start a new project for myself, and this is one I'm really excited to tackle: an addition to my personal embroidery collection in the form of a horror art panel by @barbatusart. I spent entirely too much time last year embroidering cutesy little souvenirs for my coworkers. I think I'm allowed a little fun for myself now.
However: The solid color blocks in the background gave me brief pause. So I decided to whip up a quick little test project to experiment with how to work them in using a combination of quilting, applique, and lots of really really painstaking work with an x-acto knife. Experiment, steps, and final results below!
Step 1: Collecting Materials
Texture and fabric weight do make a very noticeable difference in any fiber arts project. For that reason, it's important to do test projects using the same fabrics you plan to make the final piece out of. Lucky for me, I have an abundant stash to choose from.
Step 2: Design
Alternately known as the step wherein I began to suspect I was going overboard by hand-drawing original artwork just for one little test project. In other news, guess what y'all - I can free-hand sketch eyes now!
Step 3: Quilt The Background
Please excuse the cat hair. For this test I'm just going for two color blocks but I think it's clear how this concept would extend to the geometric background in the artwork we're building towards.
Step 4: Create A Stencil
The idea here is that we should create cut-outs in the quilted layer, from under which the white fabric will show through. My design is not ideal for this because it has a relatively light outline, so there's not much margin for error. However, looking back at the comic panel that is my ultimate goal, the outlines there are fairly heavy and bold. If I can make it work on my sketch, I'm confident I can make it work on the final piece.
Step 5: Cut, Bond, and Hoop
A spot of quilter's spray adhesive was adequate to fix the two fabrics together. A keen eye will note that the final stencil was just a bit larger than intended and didn't quite perfectly line up. This is where the thin lines in my design aren't doing me any favors. But - good enough for now.
Step 6: Hey Look, It Worked
Would you look at that! I think this did actually do what I wanted to.
Notes For Improvement:
Using stabilizer on the quilted layer will help reduce distortion when it comes to placing it over top of the base layer - probably very important with a bigger design
Double sided iron-on stabilizer might be the way to go to keep both layers nice and bonded and prevent wrinkles
Thick outlines on the design border are definitely a must
That maroon fabric looks ok in this picture but in poor lighting, it very quickly disappears into the black, I might need to pick a different fabric

I love mourning doves so much. I love their big round bodies and their tiny heads, and the weird noises they make when the take off.
Last year, before I was gardening on my balcony and there was more room for birds to land, the mourning doves nesting in the pine trees across the pond would fly up to my balcony with nesting materials looking confused, wondering if their nest was up on my balcony only to realize that no, no it was in the tree across the pond. They would waddle up to the edge of the balcony and rather than take off like most birds do, they would tip themselves over the edge in a lazy flopping motion. Then they would fly across to deposit their twigs. They would repeat that process all afternoon, each time coming to the balcony looking for their nest “did we put it over here? I was just over here… no wait, it’s on a tree.”
So I think my mourning dove patch will have to be nestled into the flowers along the edge where it will be easy to seen when I am in bed.

The Flesh Dress
All of the fabric for this was reclaimed from curtains, scraps, tights, discarded tule from a local highschool prom that I snatched up like a horrible little vulture. The boning in the bodice was done with huge zip-ties but I’m not convinced getting real sewable boning wouldn’t have been worth it. The channels on the reinforcement were a bit of a bitch. The swords I also forged myself, but this ain’t about them. A lot of (mostly fake) blood, sweat and tears went into this one and I’m super pleased with the results.
Huge shout out to @spoonbendersanonymous who was kind enough to lend me the fake blood, their anatomical text book, and had me sit down to watch Bride of Reanimator for inspiration.
Process photos and bonus photoshoot pictures below the cut!
Original sketches! A lot of me trying to figure out how to make boning look like bones while maintaining a classic shape. I said edwardian on the sketch but it honestly might be Victorian I'm really not sure.
This was a combined art project for one of my classes, the idea was using old fashioned mourning traditions and clothes in a modern and campy way, to complain about how much capitalism erodes our time to mourn. At least that’s what I told the professor, It’s really about making a weird and off putting dress first and foremost.
Tape pattern and paper pattern! This was my first time doing this so don't take thus as any sort of guide.
It worked though, as shown by the world’s worst corset fitting - the pink thing on my arm was where I was planning on putting the upper sleeve, I was trying to see if my poof was good since my sleeves were a lot thinner and a lot longer than what would have been optimal for the amount of poof I wanted, I had to do some work around with the fabric I had
Now I’m just bragging about getting eyelets to look clean and good for once in my life. If I was going to do anything different about this though, I would ad more eases in the back, because I need to contort horribly to get out of the bodice, I fit it too well
This bad boy was really the crux of the whole project. The entire thing was a pun so I could applique an anatomically accurate heart on a sheer sleeve.
This was was it’s intermediary stage, where I was suddenly very much out of time for the first deadline and had to put off adding all of the gore I wanted to, so the simple applique heart had to do.
The skirt itself was way less poofy than I would have liked, and didn’t quite give the silhouette I wanted. I ended up going with the train because the under skirt isn’t actually connected in the back. Thus is the nature of working with weird panels of curtains you’ve already cut into for a few other projects. God bless the thrift store curtain section.
The guts were made by sewing together sheer tights, and filling them with polyfill. Here they are, before they were stippled with liquid flesh colored latex and soaked in fabric paint - and after where you can see all that extra TEXTURE
I was able to use it for another project though, and I was very happy with the beading work here, although I did end up losing my biggest strand at some point.
Here’s my makeup test! I played around with doing some blood red lips but decided the blueish corpse look was better. Fun fact! I drove home wearing a sweatshirt that says “I heart corpse desecration” on it through the snow storm, and pulled over to offer some guy a hand with his car, forgetting I still looked like this. He turned me down.
The face of someone who can definitely be trusted for road side assistance. - Also I was posing as the two of swords tarot illustration for the final gallery exhibit.

Why the AG dolls are dolls, in universe
So, since Courtney has a Molly doll, that makes American Girl dolls canon in the universe they themselves exist in. Why, then, were these girls chosen to become dolls? What about these people made them the ones to have their stories canonized?
Kaya: Kaya lived until the 1830s, and had a number of children. One of her granddaughters was recorded speaking the Nez Perce language (Niimi'ipuutímt), singing, and recounting stories from her childhood. In universe, American Girl went looking for stories of young native girls in heroic situations and found the audio recordings of Kaya(at the time, Swan Circling)’s granddaughter telling stories of her grandmother’s escape from captivity, and did more research.
Felicity: As an adult, Felicity married and moved to Massachusetts. One of her sons became a fiction writer, writing serialized stories in newspapers, and turned his mother’s recollections of the war into short stories for children. These stories were later adapted by AG’s writers.
Caroline: Caroline’s story waxed and waned in popularity. Her family’s story was well documented and two books have been written about it. In Sackets Harbor, there is an Abbott family statue. She was a natural choice for AG when deciding to write about the War of 1812.
Josefina: Josefina succeeded in her goal of becoming a curandera. She later moved to Mexico City, where she had a long career of working with children in need. She was honored with multiple awards for her work throughout Mexico. When AG looked to release a Hispanic doll, a Mexican born researcher suggested Josefina Montoya, with the caveat that she was from Mexico. The team later realized she was born in a part of Mexico that would later become the United States.
Kirsten: Kirsten lived into her 90s. She became a schoolteacher before marrying at 25, and then spent much of her time quilting. She won numerous awards for her work, which specialized in applique. In her 80s, she created a quilt portraying the journey of immigration from Sweden through fabric- embroidery from Sweden to quilted panels from America- and was filmed discussing it on a local TV station at age 93. In that interview, she told the stories of Marta, Sari, and Singing Bird. She recorded her life in a series of journals and stories, which her family catalogued and published in a book about Swedish immigrants to Minnesota, giving AG lots of information to work with.
Addy: Addy lived most of her life in Philadelphia. She became a teacher, temporarily retired to raise three children, then returned to teaching. In the 1920s, she was recorded on audio telling her life’s story. AG was searching through records of formerly enslaved women, and chose Addy’s story because of her recollections of Janie and Ida Bean. Ida Bean was preserved by Addy’s family, occasionally rented to museums, and later used to create the Ida Bean doll that was sold with Addy. Her photograph hangs in the hallway of the school she taught at, along with an Addy doll in a glass case.

Rouge Raxxa, the Aldecaldos' upgunned Basilisk
The XT 451 Basilisk is a cargo hovercraft built by Militech between 2058 and 2063. The vehicle saw use by Militech and NUSA forces during the Unification War in 2070. By 2077, this vehicle was considered third rate, and obsolete, at least in the NUSA.
Rouge Raxxa is the name given to an upgunned and re-engined Basilisk stolen by Panam Palmer, V and a group of Aldecaldos in or about May of 2077. Among the modifications were a QianT dual 25mm autocannon, anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) launchers, and an upgraded powerplant. Visual inspection of the vehicle's final form also indicates that the Aldecaldos affixed panels of applique armour to the vehicle, to enhance its survivability.
By default, the Basilisk comes unarmed. An example of such a Basilisk can be found in an abandoned Militech display in Night City, alongside a showcase of luxury sportscars. However, some variants have been seen armed with a 20mm autocannon.
It is not established whether this Basilisk, which can be found in the EBM Petrochem Stadium in Dogtown, is a real Basilisk or a mock-up.
