Jessi, 44

“I’m wearing an antique quilt jacket from Feur De Flea in Louisville, KY, vintage Evan-Picone pants, vintage Camper boots, vintage beret, and a secondhand H&M blouse. I love color, and mixing patterns and textures in a whimsical way. If it makes me smile, I notice others tend to smile as well. If I’m going to a party with lots of strangers, I tend to wear something that could be an icebreaker. Plus, I try to find everything secondhand! Then I’m more likely to be able to afford it.”

Thinking about the ghouls and their hobbies, how the handful of fiber artists meet up once a week to work alongside each other on their projects.

Mist is a knitter by trade, self-taught through vintage knitting patterns. The ghoulette spends much of her free time engrossed in her latest project, when she is not in the kitchen with Alpha. She loves to make for others rather than herself, many of the ghouls sporting sweaters or socks made by her.

Alpha is one of many sewists in the pack, but his talents are more practical. Each evening he settles in with his basket of the ghoul's garments that need mending or altering. The practical aspect of his sewing comes from years of working in the infirmary alongside Omega, the fire ghoul an expert at sewing small-scale wounds that leave no trace of a scar. The ghoul never complains at the task, using his mending as a way to come down from the stress of his day.

Aurora is another sewist, the ghoulette opting for intricate, handmade garments. When first summoned the art of pattern reading and hand-sewing was passed down to her from Cirrus. The ghoulette has begun to care her own patterns and designs, taking care to construct garments for the ghouls to their precise measurements. During element practice, Aurora had accidentally summoned a little lamb-like creature from the Pits. Upon her begging to keep the creature, she began to sew them little collars and pieces of clothing, treating her familiar as if they're a human woman's dog.

Cirrus, as mentioned above, is a quilter. She loves the medium and how you can transform fabric into literal works of art. Scary dog vibes in a fabric shop when on tour but the little old ladies love her, she's always asking them for fabric advice and complimenting work done in sewing circles. She's sewn every single ghoul their own quilt, some having multiple (Aether because Dew kidnapped his original one). Each Papa also has their own quilt, depicting scenes from their time as pope.

Cumulus makes bobbin lace, intricate patterns that take form from a seemingly meaningless shuffling of wooden bobbins. She has made lace runners for the mantle piece in the den for each season, and many holidays. There is a large lace runner along the unholy communion table that was created from a bobbin lace pattern written by Zephyr, who passed the lace making craft down to the ghoulette.

Zephyr is a lace maker, while the ancient air ghoul used to be proficient in bobbin lace making, he has transitioned to another method of lace making. He has taken up tatting as a form of lace making, as it is not as cumbersome as bobbin lace making, and can be done from the relative comfort of his bed. The air ghoul will spend his afternoons with his reading glasses perched on his nose, scouring his books for a new, intricate pattern to begin. Ifrit will dutifully prep the shuttles for him, as winding the bobbins is more difficult when the air ghoul is afflicted with stiffness in his hands.

mariners apartment complex feels like…

- stripped cotton v necks paired with distressed daisy dukes.

- barefoot dancing with a soaked crop top in the onslaught of the summer rain, humid air sticking your shirt to your skin.

- temporary tattoos that fade before they can even settle.

- cloud gazing on the front hood, lounging on the side of a car as if it’s a piece of furniture.

- malboro cigarettes paired with an open vanilla coke.

- tiny hoop earrings paired with a stud earring in double pierced lobes.

- knee socks paired with short shorts.

- worn and stained yellow converse with perfectly white shoe laces.

- cotton candy themed perfume, the scent so fleeting that it’s phantom scent lasts in the air longer than the actual fragrance itself.

- early morning baths, the water running cold once the sun rises over the horizon.

- floral sofas with decorative pillows that possess a rough texturized pattern and tassel string around the edges.

- smoking on a windowsill at dawn

- listening to the same bird song you’ve heard since childhood.

- dried mud marks on the side of a navy blue pickup truck.

- mixed slushee flavors from the small one stop shop with 4 gas pumps and a halfway convenience area.

- love hotels in the backends of alleys and under brushes of trees with heart shaped tubs and intricately threaded duvet coverings.

- fiddling with a heart locket while laying on a made bed in the mid afternoon between the hours 3 and 4 PM.

- napping against a tree, the summer cicadas and birds filling your ears

- tire swings in june.

- weather themed earrings.

- drug store hauls on a road trip.

- books bound with blue leather and gilded gold pages

- using a clothesline to dry frilly delicates and underthings

- sparkly heels with jeans

- glass coke bottles turned into candles

- posters with lipstick marks in different shades all over them

- fuzzy sounding vinyl records that still miraculously work after years of wear and tear

- waitressing at a small mom and pop establishment

- cheap booze spilt all over leather car seats

- frugal but meaningful gifts

- yellow vintage cars with modified rims and a drop top

- feeling all of those old feelings reignite after seeing someone you haven’t seen in forever

- sleeping with pillows and an old quilted blanket on the floor

- lukewarm coffee at 11 AM

- hotel pancakes and cereal ten minutes before breakfast closes

- riding in the passenger seat with your feet sitting out of the window

- drinking your cold soda on the curb in front of the gas station

- diamond stud belly rings.

- fur covered diaries with locks and every crush you’ve had since elementary

Welcome to the flamboyantly colorful home of creative consultant Max Hurd. It's a redone London Victorian terrace home. Just look at this entrance hall. It's a contemporary take on a country home that Max did in collaboration with designer Benedict Foley.

The drawing room adjoins the library at the front of the house.

When Max bought this house, it was painted entirely in white.

From the library is a clear sight line thru to the kitchen.

The carved table is Burmese and I'm not sure if it was originally red or if Max & Benedict painted it.

Max kept the original kitchen, but may redo it in the future. Don't the tops of the cabinets look like a castle?

I wonder if this would look tacky if you gave it a castle theme.

The vintage chintz fabric on the banquette was found in remnants on Ebay and they've been intentionally placed not to match.

A guest powder room.

Circus-like painted doors to the bedrooms on the 2nd level.

The plaster shell holding the fabric above the bed came from Italy and the headboard was found on Ebay.

The wallpaper pattern is called "Tented Stripe" and gives a nod to the circus theme out in the hall.

The classic style toilet was found on Ebay.

Max's housemate's room has an American 19th century quilt on the bed. Another, damaged quilt, covers the headboard.

From Hugh's room the purple stairs to the attic are visible.

This rooms color scheme was inspired by a staff swimming pool in Hamburg.

And this is the owner, Max, sitting with his cat, Count Vronsky.

How the Companions would decorate their homes

...and how I would lose my goddamn mind wrestling with Tumblr's formatting nightmare hellworld.

sorry to anon who requested this, I deleted your ask while fighting for my life :[

Cait; The punkest of punk design; whatever the hell makes her happy. Would take interest in things she previously never cared much for, like music, or tinkering, or model making. So, you'll have posters and vinyls of her favorite bands and artists everywhere, tools and materials strewn about flat surfaces. Lots of reds and plaid/flannel. Likes big couches you can sprawl out on and thickly-knit, chunky blankets. Think of pop art with darker colors, chaotic patterns. Loves warm, bright lighting, dim areas remind her of the Combat Zone. Her spaces are messy, but freeing and charismatic. Her style is best described as rocker college dorm room. Reminiscent of Chloe Price's room, but more mature and with less teen melodrama. Would have lots of candles. Has a statement shelf with feature lighting for unique alcohol bottles.

Codsworth; Post-modern. Modern is medium-toned, neutral colored, and somewhat minimalist. Post-modern likes colors, soft shapes, having art as part of the house itself. Bright wood paneling, one-line artwork wallpaper, multiple colors in one room. It's very birds of paradise in color pallet. Brown suede couches are a classic. Lots of plants. It's inspired by 1950s, but with bouncier aesthetics, where 1950s can feel stiff. Codsworth wouldn't want anything too out there, though. Dani Dazey is kinda close to what he'd enjoy, but tone down the amount of color, go less crazy with the decals. But otherwise, bright colors, patterns, textures—that's the vibe. Just a less plastic 1950s, and it doesn't have the Great Depression's fingerprints all over it. I would have said something Colonial, or classic British, but I didn't want to think exclusively about his accent. Codsworth is chipper, he's friendly, he invites people over. Something fun, welcoming, and optimistic is up his alley.

Danse; However he got the house/apartment, it would stay that way. Danse does not provide for himself like that. It wouldn't be until he made friends that his residence would have personality. Nick gets him an orange-patterned bedspread that's a lot more neon than it looked in the store. Cait gets him a retro CD player and wall-mounted CD case displays. Preston and Deacon team up to repaint everything minty green and install walnut wood paneling. The furniture is gone the next day, replaced with lodge-style log-and-leather. Everyone pitches in something different, something from their own tastes. As a result, Danse's space would be a constant visual reminder that he's loved, and gaudy as fuck. Nothing matches. The colors are everywhere. Textures? A nightmare. You could kill Ty Pennington with this house. There's a giant mural of cats having mimosas and he isn't sure how or when it got there. Loves it, but...who...why...

Curie; I really struggled with Curie. I first went with French Provincial, then French Farmhouse, French Country, Rustic Glam, Scandinavian, Flemish, bauhaus, pastel bauhaus...I felt like I was trying to convince myself of everything. Nothing fit her. Eventually I settled on girly vintage. The thing with vintage is that technically, 'vintage' has like 70 years of vastly different styles. So...you get a little bit of Victorian-esque, a little bit of art deco, Hollywood Regency...imagine a really nice Barbie dollhouse. That's the vibe, just make everything blues, greens, and purples instead of pink. Curie has a bit of an older grandma vibe. Floral quilts, Wedgwood china dishware and cabinets, antique paintings. I imagine she'd repaint or reupholster her furniture, if not get it new. Definitely has white or blue painted furniture, rather than open wood. Ornate vanity, seashell wallscone lighting, embroidered curtains, kidney desks, corner cupboards...Curie's style is elegant, a little outdated, cherubic, and somewhat saccharine. Would have naturalistic wallpaper with flora and fauna.

Deacon; Like Danse's, but intentional. He's extremely fond of furniture made to look like other things. Mushroom ottomans. Fried egg light switches. Wall-mounted shelving/hangers that are open, grabbing hands. Toucan table lamps. Surrealist thrifter in style. Goes to yard sales, estate sales, those sales put by storage unit owners when a tenant doesn't pay. Grabs the weirdest shit he finds. A McDonalds sign from Thailand. A taxidermied rabbit. A Bigfoot track mold. His walls are never the same color or wallpaper. The kitchen is mint green, the living room is pink and orange, his bedroom is black and blue. Maximalist. There's a story behind every item in his space and good luck figuring out which are true. The least chaotic room is the bedroom, decorated simply with space/star aesthetics. Most chaotic? The empty hallway filled with wall-phones. Only one of them is real. The others go off only when the real one does. He won't tell you this before housesitting.

Gage; You'd think it'd be a Male Living Space. No. Gage is a mean, old, materialistic [sexuality redacted] man. He has tastes. He has standards. Will act like it's a Male Living Space keep up appearances, but his place is probably one of the more expensive. It's fine, money isn't an issue for him. Favors greens, yellows, browns, lots of swampy colors. Steals streetsigns and hangs them up. Weaved and leather furniture, linens, animal pelts, mounts. Worn teak wood, cream walls, travertine floors. If this sounds luxurious, consider that Gage lives here. Unclean. Has no bed frame, only a mass of sheets and pillows. The most pristine places in his house are the coffee maker's counter, and the spaces for his pet lizard, who roams freely like a small dog. The lizard is the only thing keeping him from smoking indoors. So many fucking books everywhere, all dog-eared to death. Has stolen something from every party he's ever been to. Keeps them on display. Has a worrying amount of wedding cake toppers.

Hancock; Psychedelic culture-nerd hippie meets a grizzled ex-starlet who moonlights as a show girl. Think Whimsigoth, without the victorian influence and a lot more drippy shapes. All light sources are lava lamps. Conversation pit that you could meet God in. Many colors, most of them moody and 'sleepy'. Stereo system through the entire space. Paints on his walls whenever he's feeling creative/high, they're constantly changing. Has to scrape off the paint every so often. Collects movie memorabilia, particularly horror movies. Has masks, outfits, props. His kitchen/dining room is unintentionally Japanese-eqsue in style, in that the table is low, and you sit on beanbags. Really not into dealing with chairs in the morning. Hancock's ideal furniture is made of moldable jelly, him being a cat in spirit. His office is a complete divorce from the other rooms. It's entirely 1700s luxury Colonial in style. Dark mahogany woodwork, deep reds and blues, a (electric) chandelier. Big library.

MacCready; Eclectic. This style is defined by maximilism, mismatched everything, lots of tchotchkes. The core tenent of it is that it takes whatever looks good from other styles. It's magpie core. It's how the gremlin thief in your DnD campaign would style a home. So, lots of different kinds of fabrics, many shelves for trinkets, posters of all kinds on the wall. You ever make a wall with just the posters, signs, etc in your settlements? That's what he does. In canon, MacCready likes midnight blue and leopard print, but I can see olive greens as well. Very messy and busy. Raw wood furniture seems like it would be a good fit for him. Would have a big entertainment center, very nerdy space. I think Rodrick Heffley's and Eddie Munson's bedrooms are a good way of getting an idea. Kind of basementy, kind of glamrock. He's 22, what do you want from him? Very much "baby's first place." Duncan's room would be more child-friendly, lighter colors and softer furniture. His drawings always get hung up wherever there's space.

Nick; Also struggled with this one...I didn't want to just make him Victorian/Gothic, that felt too obvious. But...it's obvious because it's correct. It just is. His name is Valentine. He has a neon pink sign with hearts on it. This man is modern Victorian meets dingy alleyway in a Hollywood noir film. So, we're looking at victorian settees and woodwork (which is when the walls are carved all fancy, by the by), lots of dark colors, leathers, a fireplace to stare into broodily with a glass of whiskey. We'll also need a bit of industrial to blend the Modern Victorian and Urban Night vibes, so some dark brick/stone, perhaps? Or industrial light fixtures. In terms of materials, the aforementioned leather, but also velvet and dasask fabrics, marble, and rosewood, possibly treated to bring out the red, or be made darker. This space is mostly dark and black, with pops of pink, purple, and blues. Would definitely need an LED indirect lighting for mood setting. It's not as dark like X6-88's home, though, it's more intimate and warm. Heavier emphasis on coziness and inviting auras. Nick's home is an older queer man's home, so obviously it's a little extra, a little theatrical. Has a sweet cocktail bar setup, will make you a martini while you unveil your tragic backstory.

Piper; Also eclectic, but brighter and with some intellectualism. So, more vintage, but bolder and more assertive than Curie's vintage. The best thing I can do it point you towards Arianna Danielson's blog, and ask that you imagine most of those pinks to be darker, or just red. Similarly, Dani Klaric and Tay Beep Boop's viral design. That vibe of confidence, a little bit of feminine rebelliousness, and generally just spunky. A crucial item would be book paper lighting shades. It clashes but Piper would be into it. I imagine she'd want the place to be fun for Nat, satisfy that little girl urge for Maximum Colors. Piper would have a messy as hell writing room, papers everywhere, red-string corkboards, coffee cups. Collection of vintage newspapers, lots of plushy rugs and pillows, probably has weird little knickknacks hidden about. The type to have rubber ducks in her fridge and refuse to elaborate. Don't question the writing process.

Preston; Walnut, shiplap, rattan, navy blue. Reeves Connally put me on this combination and now I'm spreading the propaganda. People have feelings on rattan but it deserves more respect, just like Preston. His style is best described as hygge with a beachy edge. Hygge is all about neutrals, extremely soft and squishy fabrics and furniture, warm ambient lighting, and worn wood. Fairy lights everywhere. Cozycore, really. Blue and shiplap walls, walnut flooring, rattan furniture. Blues + white + sandy + rich brown. Best combo. Fucking fight me. Chunky wool blankets, velvet for more decorative cloths, like drapery or the fabric of the seat cushions. For decor, you're looking at handdrawn maps, paper light fixtures/shades, plants kept in colored glass vases, nature photography, a reading nook filled with historical fiction and textbooks. I can also see hanging greenery. Preston's space is refreshing, energizing, but not bombastic. I imagine he has a kitchen island with stools, but no dining table.

X6-88; Dark modernist, hands down. Crucial item is the Zaha Hadid moon sofa, in black. Steel, concrete, and sparingly, brass/brassy wood. Blacks, greys, and with the brass, an inoffensive pop of color. It's a minimalist style that, when darkened, takes inspiration from Gothic and industrial styles, but doesn't lean into them. Also has some futurism elements. X6-88's home is clean, elegant, sharp. It's designed to not be overstimulating, like the Institute's stark white plastic and fluorescent lighting is. LED indirect lighting + metal-caged hanging lights, velvet and taffeta fabrics, glass tables. There is no better kitchen for him then the Modern Kitchen 2020 from Burak LACFI on Behance. For the bathroom, Anna Kolos' work, also on Behance. His bedspread, the Ithaca Sateen set from Sleep by Sānti. I spent three years designing this man's home for a 40k word fanfic and I will hear no opposition.

   I have a lovely cedar chest that my great-uncle made for my mom or my grandmother. Well-made furniture, my beloved. It’s functionally immortal. It had to be refinished in the 80s, but aside from that - pristine condition. And it’s filled with problems.

   I started quilting as a teen, and I just figured things out as I went along. If I’d had someone teaching me, they might have given me good advice like “Don’t put vintage fabrics in an item that’s meant for daily use” or “ONLY use cotton batting if you intend to quilt very heavily, because if you leave much room between the lines of quilting the batting will pull apart” or even “You need to know about mitered corners!”

   So I have several beautiful quilts that are falling apart one way or another because of things I didn’t know. It’s a shame. I also have one spectacular crazy-quilt top that I made as a gift, never actually quilted, and realized later that because of poor fabric choices it would never do as an actual bed covering. It would have to be for display only.

I was, um, bonkers for satiny and silky fabrics back then, and saw no problem with mixing them with every other type of fabric. It’s either magnificent or appalling, depending on your personal taste.

   I’d like to quilt again, maybe in a few years when I’m less overloaded. There’s one modern-style quilt I’d love to try made with uneven strip of fabric. I saw it once, loved it, and now cannot remember the name of the pattern or find ANY reference to it online. So, for anyone who might know:

It starts with strips of fabric in different widths. When you get all the strips sewed together, you then cut uneven strips the other direction (showed by the arrows). Offset those from each other by and inch or two, then re-sew them. (a simplified explanation, but you get the jist). It gives a neat, zig-zag appearance. Anyone have a name for this? I know how to piece it, but I could use some guidance on how much fabric to buy to begin.

Went to Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival today.

Had to get my annual photo with a sheep:

Here are the outtakes:

We got there too late for the shearing demonstration (which I've seen at least a dozen times before), but there are always newborn lambs.

And here's my haul:

Sheep socks and slippers, a sheep ornament, long sleeve tshirt with a drawing of a sheep called Betty and yarn from Sun Valley Fibers and Blackberry Ridge (both from Mt. Horeb, WI). I know Jannette and George from Sun Valley Fibers (my friends and I have been to their farm and we knit on their porch) and since I spent so much money, she gave me a leftover bag from her last retreat.

Spouse also got some pottery (a sheep figurine, a hippo planter and a Wisconsin ornament for me made to look knit) and a quilted placemat pattern with some vintage buttons.

All in all, a pretty successful day.

#spouse said there are no rules for sheep and wool #and the yarn buying rule is i have to have a project in mind #good thing i have 1300+ patterns in my queue #sheep #wisconsin #wisconsin sheep and wool #lambs #yarn #knitting
