My first real solo quilt for my wonderful girlfriend. My mom taught me some basics when I was younger. I think it came out pretty well. She said her favorite colors were jewel tones and she likes to read so I knew I had to include the book page fabrics. I got most everything at Michael's besides the backing which I had to go to a quilting store. Shout out Yankee Pride Quilts in Essex, VT. I wish I had gone there first, they are so nice. It ended up bigger than expected since I mis-calculated my seam allowance, so it's \~92x92 instead of 84x84. Fortunately it still had plenty of space on my wide back material for my backing. I straight line quilted it shadowing the seams on the ...

Bunnies, pastels, and florals for Spring!! Because why do one when you can show all three? Pic one: Galison, 500, Spring Tea Party. Truly adorable if a bit overwhelming pattern and detail-wise, plus with a lot of shine from the foiled details. Love it anyway, never pass up bunnies and desserts. Pic two: Galison, 500, Easter Candy Shop by Michael Storrings. Pink and green overload! I love the Galison artists so much and this is no exception, its just a childhood dream of a store. Pic three: Galison, 500, Easter Meadow. This was from the group of TJ Maxx/Marshall's Galison puzzles from February or so, found when hunting for the Hobbry puzzles they were rumored to have. ...

Decided to take a break from *skilling* and test out some of the changes that were made to ship combat. Frankly i still don't like it. # The Positive * Putting two cannons on one side great no more wiggle garbage to hit a target with two cannons. * We hit harder * Weapon damage cap removed, great. * Ballistic attractor # The Negatives * Cannon attack speed is far to slow, 7 ticks even with the damage increase makes them feel terrible. Frankly i think this is my biggest negative with them. * Npc density, I feel like i can only sit on the outskirts of almost all the groups of mobs in order not be destroyed they need to be spread out we have an entire ocean why are we getting clump...

I feel I’m in need of a change in scenery -- to soak in the greenery surrounded by many trees; to stare at the Pleiades -- just make sure you don't lose your head. \- Ian T. Sielsch \*\*\*\*\* “You have everything?” “Yes mom, I have everything.” Sherry sighed as she knew the question was bound to come three more times before she left. “Do *you* have everything?” Sherry’s mother held up the papers and her keys to the house. “Yes ma’am!” “Then what do you have to do tonight?” Sherry still was getting used to talking to her mother like an adult. It had been eight years now out of the house, and still felt like a strange thing to do.  “Feed ...

Michael’s is the only store I can buy from aside from the very few local stores. But the small stores do not carry a big range. Frustrating as shipping to Canada is always expensive (and with gas prices rising…. Oh well, rip my wallet) I want to make some nice summer tops, shawls and coverups but my Michael’s only sells medium weight, (4 and up) yarn! It’s frustrating as I like to feel the yarn, but I’m out of options. I know there is hobbii and considered buying from them. Curious if there are other online stores. Please recommend some good light weight cotton yarn brands as well. Not sure what to pick from hobbii, or if there are other stores what some good brands are.

Starting off with I did NOT make the blanket and I could never take credit for that work of art. My (long deceased) grandmother crocheted this blanket while she was pregnant with my mother. Last Christmas I gave out “crochet coupons” as stocking stuffers because I’m sick of making things for people that they don’t like/want/use. My mom asked me a couple months ago to make pillows that match this blanket, even sent an inspo daisy pillow picture. We took the blanket to the craft store and color matched as good as we could. And here are the results. I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out despite their flaws. No pattern because I freehanded off the inspo pic. But good god I...

**TL;DR:** Survivor itself isn’t the problem — it’s great for keeping casual PvE players engaged and reducing frustration. The problem is that PvP has no equivalent casual-friendly option that still preserves meaningful risk and reward. Because of that, PvE players default to Survivor while PvP players default to zero-risk free kit spam, which removes tension, discourages bringing fun gear, and makes most encounters feel repetitive and low-stakes. A Safekeeper rework could help create a healthier balance without removing the accessibility the game already embraces. So before anyone threatens to kill my dog because I think their favorite augment is "broken", hear me out:...

This room is intended to be a lot more customizable as a concept and all of the features can be moved around if needed and wanted. Also for the lever interface, I was imagining it to be like the Managing Miscellania Interface and the physical levers are just there to add character to the room and be there as a more visual element.

I’ve always been chronically online, I don’t think I’ve ever know a life without social media. but back then, it was ACTUALLY SOCIAL. I remember making friends on MySpace, Facebook groups, tumblr, deviantART, etc. Over the last few years, it’s felt more isolating than ever. I’m sure my accounts have been shadow banned because of the politics I have lol, but it’s so lonely. I had a group of friends I met online that I would meet up with at a local bar where we would get together and crochet. But over the last year, it’s pretty much died out. I have a small group of friends I hang out with every week or so, but they are all disabled in one way or another and can’t hang out as ...

Inherited a shoebox of my uncle's cards last year. No idea what was in it, figured most were worthless. Took me three days to scan through everything with a phone app — here's exactly how I did it. \*\*1. Find good lighting.\*\* Not direct sunlight, that creates glare. Near a window with indirect light works best. I used my kitchen table around 2pm when the light was soft but bright. \*\*2. Hold your phone steady.\*\* Don't hover over the card — place it flat on the table and hold your phone about 6-8 inches above. Most scanner apps have a framing guide that helps. \*\*3. Tap scan.\*\* The app I used (SnapCard — free on the App Store) pulled up the card instantly. Wit...

i've been wanting to go for a while, and finally got to go the other day! its like a craft store and thrift store in one, its all donated craft supplies and you can donate your old stuff for store credit. just be aware that you cant use it the same day, you need to come back again to use the credit. everything is very reasonably priced, i got about 3 yards of beautiful pink upholstery fabric for $5. smaller pieces are $1-$2. i got $10 in credit from a garbage bag full of fabric + 2 grocery bags with miscellanous stuff. i definitely recommend if you're a crafter looking to destash and or find some new things!

I'd love to arrange a snack swap with a celiac snack buddy in Australia! I have celiac disease and live in the US. I traveled around Australia last summer and became obsessed with the "Freedom crafted blends" brand gluten-free blueberry muesli/granola they sell at Woolworths and Coles, which we of course don't have in the states. Nothing I've found here compares! Would also love to try any of your favorite GF treats. In the states, almost all our sour gummy candies (lollies?), hard candies, etc, are made with corn starch/ syrup and are naturally gluten-free so I'd be happy to share some of my favorite GF sweets or anything else you might have a hankering for...

Beta Testers Needed for the Crafty Planner App! I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO DO A YOU TEST MY APP ILL TEST YOURS! I built an Android app for Makers to track supplies & profit (and I need your help!) Hey everyone, I’m the developer at Tyriah App Studios. I’ve spent the last few months building Crafty Planner because I realized that most business apps are built for giant corporations, not solo makers or crafters sitting at a craft desk. I just got the green light from Google to start my Closed Beta, and I’m looking for 10 fellow makers or crafters to help me test it for 14 days. Why use it?
