I was listenin' to the ocean
I saw a face in the sand
But when I picked it up
Then it vanished away from my hands, down...

sometimes i think i'm not that much "my dad but a lesbian" and then sometimes my dad unpacks my old baby toys so our baby can play with them and literally all of them are the same brand as the toys i've been favouriting on vinted for the last few months

I’m still mad Kishi showed us Rin reuniting with Obito (and ofc shes acting like the perfect gf bc gods forbid this 14 yo child soldier has any feeling or opinion abt her best friend murdering half the ppl she knew) but not Izuna and Madara. I just want to know what the fuck Izuna thought of all this bullshit bc from the little we’ve seen of him he seems to be quite reasonable and level-headed like I just want to know how he reacted to Madara setting the world on fire SEVERAL TIMES OVER for him.

this week because i had so few orders i brought my quilt stuff to work on at work and i got three hours of work in yesterday and five in today. then i was so stoked i spent three hours sewing this evening. my body hurts so badly and tho i did the math for 1/4" seam allowance i misjudged the size of my presser foot and sewed at 5/16-3/8" which amounts to a heartbreaking amount of size lost.
okay i did the math and actually my initial estimate was correct i only lost two inches which is frankly impressive and not difficult to supplement with the border i was already planning to do

lighthouse painting quilt planning bc @humblexwanderer is a terrible, terrible influence <3
(less planning and more rambling every thought i have about this i am So Sorry. i am always like this)
i must preface this that ive never made a quilt before but i do sew and have the gay audacity to believe i can pull off all these hard seams with 0 experience
the plan here is to buy nothing except thread and maybe binding. im gonna steal the fabric from my works scrap bin so i will be a little limited on what colours i can get- half the reason im considering going through with this is i keep remembering theres practically a whole roll of fabric in the scrap bin that i could use for the back of the quilt, and thats basically all the extra encouragement i needed
here's my general plan (blocked colours arent supposed to be accurate, more representative of which areas will be the same fabric)
and a lineart plan- ill be printing this out and sticking it together to make my pattern
im calling this a quilt but really im /thinking/ its gonna be more of a blanket- the fabric ill be getting from work is upholstery weight wool, thicker than a coating, so itll weigh a lot as is and have some decent chonk without any batting.
im undecided on the size right now- not sure if i should go for a single blanket size or limit myself to a bed runner kind of size. i think the design is one that gets easier the bigger it is, and itll make a better blanket if you can wrap yourself in it, but i imagine most the time ill be displaying it on the bottom of my bed and id like to be able to appreciate the full design.
for reference: single bed size is: 150 x 200cm (60in x 79in) a bed runner is around 100cm x 50cm ( 40in x 20in ) these are approximations as id obviously be trying to keep the design in ratio. (the design is about twice as long as it is wide)
my quilting plan is probably to just follow the seams, maybe add a motif in so i get a nice design on the back? perhaps some light from the lighthouse (this'd also help quilt down those big patches in the middle!
ive got a few bits im totally undecided on: whether ill do a kind of afterquilt on the back on just leave it entirely plain, how im gonna do the fine details on the lighthouse (im thinking maybe a button for the top? or even just embroidery?) im also debating if it should have the white border like its framed or not- i think itd probably look nice, and would be great to have brown binding to represent the picture frame, but white is probably a really hard fabric to grab from work sooooo
if you read all this i am giving u a forehead kiss <3

spent the evening wondering why i was SO determined to install or build some kind of shelf for the laundry room or bathroom before my roommate gets back from the business trip she’s been dreading for over a month and only on my car ride home did i realize it’s because acts of service and gift giving are high up in my love languages esp when they coincide into a labor of love
