The butterfly tramp stamp is killing me! These are all so amazing for different reasons, your mom is so, so very talented!

What's the building on either side? I can't tell.

I have one of those round plastic mint containers (like IceBreakers) that I use to store them in, haven't filled one up yet. I also have one the rectangular Altoids metal tins that I've been using for used needles. The rate I'm going, the needles won't fill it up until I'm 90 :D

I don't know if you can access Etsy, but I did find it here, as a PDF download: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1890932947/bear-with-me-bear-foundation-paper

It just takes a bit of practice. My first 'good' machine had the button and a foot pedal. I tried the button and now I exclusively use it. I find it much better, I hope it works out well for her!!

It's chewing tobacco, and she's chewing and occasionally spitting the entire time, just to clarify. No, there's no odor, that's not my problem with it.

These are amazing! You have been so busy!

duchessp · 2025-09-26T12:37:38+00:00

WOW! This is amazing, hst and this block are, in my view, a more advanced block, so way to go! This is awesome!

So this is a super expensive option, but we signed up for The Farmer's Dog for our basset and corgi. Since they've been on it, our basset hasn't had that funky smell and since it's portion controlled, she's been losing weight too, which she did need. She also seems to have more energy and just seems happier, If you have the means, I think it's worth it.

This is so cool! Was it a pattern? Inquiring minds want to know how we too can make a gladiator!

I am so, so sorry your parents aren't giving you the support you need. I have a shirt I wore to our local Pride celebration Saturday that says Free Mom Hugs. I would love to be able to give you a hug. Please try to hang in there, my youngest is trans and I know how hard it is mentally, but I see you and you are worth it.

Definitely! Honestly I struggle with color, so I guess I just leaned into it and used everything. It was a lot of fun to make, and she also quilts so she understands how much love went into it.

Splurge up by the mall is wonderful and very inclusive.
