The Witch Of Babbling (blog thread)

oo boy! I'll make a dedicated OP later when i can think about it but.... for now... this is it. please read the title to the tune of this

 

Husband is watching Black Clover, the bad anime, and there's a character who's kinda goth and soft spoken and everyone keeps ignoring him and leaving him behind and forgetting about him and you know what? he's my friend now. none of you bitches deseve him

 

i am on shein saving a ton of pictures of stuff i wanna try to make when i'm better at sewing and like.... i Want. to learn how to sew. but all the online courses i can find aren't giving me what i want

 

If you can list what kind of things you want to learn I could probably scare up some resources for you. (Forever ago I went to college for fashion design so maybe I can be useful?)

 

!!! that would be awesome!! The one I found only taught me the basics of how to use a sewing machine and how to make one style of tote bag, which is good for, like, a free class on youtube. Other classes I found were how to make specific pieces, usually using other stuff as a base, but like... nothing much in between things? How to understand how a garnment is made, stuff like that - which i guess might be too much to ask from an online resorce. I found a few places that gave free beginner patterns but they were for people way skinnier than me, so something about plus sizing would be nice.

i really have no idea what i'm doing mostly lmao but the tote bag i am making is turning out pretty ok

 

The end goal is to be able to make the clothes i design for me, but that's a super long road and i'm not sure where to start, basically.

 

Ok cool, I can work with that for sure. I actually really enjoyed pattern drafting despite dyscalculia. I'll look to it in the morning - i should probs be sleeping rn.

 

Thank you so much!!

 

Husband is going to visit his mom until Friday, which gives me the perfect opportunity to tidy up the house to the tunes of all the bubbly pop he is tired of me listening to every time I do my part of the chores, but it's also the perfect opportunity to go to the mall and get bubble tea and holiday gifts because he hates going to the mall and I don't know which I do first. Tempted to go to the mall because I'm running low on soap and there's a lot of laundry to do and I could use the Walmart there as an excuse to myself, but today is Sunday and the place is going to be packed, which is. Not ideal.

 

Also today is set to get to thirty four Celsius and that's just way too many Celsius

 

I forgot for a second you are on the Southern hemisphere and just stared outside in horror because it super isn't summer temperatures here lmao

 

lmao i would be willing to trade, i am so not equipped to deal with summer temperatures. wed we'll have 37ºC with a predicted feeling of fourty fucking one and i am just crying

 

OH NO THAT SOUNDS MISERABLE

 

I Cannot believe... that my own cat son Garrus... would commit such a terrible betrayal... as to try to eat my shrimp.....

 

Ivy IT'S MISERABLE AND IT'S ONLY DECEMBER i cannot physically imagine how awful the end of january will be

 

Garrus trying to steal my shrimp. Fat cat Catniss lusting after the crab cakes. is there ANYONE in this house that would not commit vile matricide

 

Press F to pay respects

 

Garrus has a MIDI player with shitty elevator music in it instead of a brain but i get a plate in my hands and suddenly he thinks he's a master thief genius. I CAN SEE YOU SNEAKING ON ME, IDIOT, YOU ARE ON TOP OF THE TABLE

 

Rude cats!!

 

@Saro very rude!!!! I don't even feed them human food because Garrus has a sensitive tummy and this idiot continues doing this
