Weekly thingy and still squishing clay.

Embroidery update first: tada!

I am also still making buttons and there are definitely way more than I need for myself now, plus I recently had to replace my home AC, so if anyone wants some unique buttons please go hit my Etsy shop! Right now I have a lot of different little leaves, flowers, mixed round and square shapes in interesting colour mixes, and heart shaped Pride buttons using the Philly pride flag colour set. Later this week I’ll be adding these (there’s still some finishing to do on them):

One of the fun things is seeing how I can use the offcuts from patterned mixes, so the Bi pride hearts are layered onto a sparkly black back; the excess from the hearts got marbled together and laid onto a lavender backing for the flowers, and then the scraps from those got chopped up and turned into the purple and black lacework patterned rounds.

Places to buy stuff!

Did I miss something?  I think that’s everything.

What’s making me happy this week:

I got to see a bunch of friends this weekend at two different art events after a long break of only chatting with them online, and hanging out with friends is great, especially friends who are in no way thrown when you bring your embroidery along to social occasions because you don’t sit still well.
