Hands up if you too were wronged by 1980s Tory policy 😢 We survived, the milk did not. Some of us are still processing this. This one’s for us. Click the shop link in bio for the pattern. #CrossStitch #CrossStitchPattern #FuckTheTories #BritishPolitics #SchoolMilk

Here is the kitteh version of the plant labels. The whole thing is a bit thicker to make it less wobbly, and the black layers are supported from behind by solid white layers. I’m quite happy with them. #3DPrinting #CAD #Maker

Designed and printed a two colour plant label. Needs a little tweaking but I am very happy with it. This is in PLA but will use PETG for the final one. #3DPrinting #Gardening

This afternoon my sinuses are feeling really weird, I am sneezing and have a pressure headache above my eyes. Ugh.

So the last thing that I fixed was a loose machine screw, circled in red. It was interfering with the colour change filament cutter. Successfully test printed four different coloured bobbins in one go. Happy with that.

Fixed two things on that customer return printer I was gifted. Now running a four colour print as a test. Fingers crossed we are successful!

More jalapeños again tonight. Definitely feeling more like myself again.

Me and @aelfida.bsky.social have our own lyrics 😁

13 years ago me and @aelfida.bsky.social did a ‘nerdscape’ photo. Still quite relevant but it turned out Dawkins became a twat.

I want to make a nice Easter #CrossStitch pattern, something that goes back to its roots as a fertility festival. Triple hare maybe?

Oh, decided to reacclimatise myself to spicy food after all the exploded insides. Had some burgers with jalapeños to start easy. They were fantastic.

WIP Wednesday Hey! It's me, trying to see what you're stitching! Share your cross stitch projects below! Maybe find a new stitchy friend. I'm prepping for the upcoming Steotchalong. This is a throwback with Winston helping me. #crossstitch #StitchSky #WIPWednesday #craft #FiberArts ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Nothing to show for #WipWednesday #CrossStitch. Hopefully get some time at the weekend. 😭

People don’t want to hear it though, it’s cognitively easier to blame the current scapegoats.

Banging headache today. Been a long day though.

Just been gifted a Flashforge AD5X, a fairly decent 3D printer that can use up to four filaments at once. The gifter said it boots up but can’t test it. Can’t wait to try it out, well excited! #3DPrinting

Have any of my followers tried my Stituation Critical #CrossStitch pattern editing software? If so, can I get some feedback on it please? I am going to create some documentation for it soon as well. ❤️

Someone I know and who I am always keen to impress has taken a shine to painting by numbers. What better time to make something to turn photos into paint by numbers. Hopefully she might hit me with that smile ❤️

I have no idea how to promote my KoFi without it being spammy or whatever, but then it’s just for fun so probs doesn’t need promoting.

Feeling quite yuk in the mental department, would like it if this year could start getting a bit better please. I don’t even have the mental energy to make the dice I have been planning. Meh.

Here is the mushroom pattern! #CrossStitch ko-fi.com/s/23e8b94200

Finished it! Going to update the pattern with the colour codes and then post to my kofi. #CrossStitch

#ThePersonBehindTheAccount Here is me, sans commie hat.

#WIPWednesday #CrossStitch here is my mushroom progress, just the cap to go before I turn it into a pouch. Going with a straw kind of colour to represent a chestnut mushroom.

New commie hat! Drogo also says hi.

Started a mushroom today, this is going to be another silica gel pouch. #CrossStitch

Happy to announce I am watching Star Wars whilst wearing my TNG bridge officers top. Just wish I had a Dark Star coaster for my drink. #MixingMemes @aelfida.bsky.social

Hey peeps, free pattern for you all! Because sometimes cross stitch is self-care, and sometimes it is… whatever this is! ko-fi.com/felineandfloss #CrossStitch #CrossStitchPattern #SlowCraft #Craftivism #FuckICE

Today’s random music has started with PWEI, followed by Inspirals and The Wonder Stuff. Strong start from Alexa today.

If I add back stitch support to Stituation Critical, would an import and convert SVG be useful? #CrossStitch

Could the fracturing of society and the rise of fascism be partly due to no longer being able to talk to those who lived through it? In the 80s and 90s we opposed them and we could talk to people who were there in the 30s and 40s. Now they are gone, we only hear of it as history.

I don’t get it, is the internal wound from my appendectomy hurting again, or is it diverticulitis?

This is one of my favourite tracks, from my favourite band. Still relevant today, perhaps more so. In the 90’s we knew how bad it could get, we could talk to people who survived the horrors. I hope we aren’t destined to repeat it. youtu.be/76wSk1j02_4?...

The Challenger disaster is something that stayed with me for a long time. I have always been a bit nerdy and loved space flights, so to see it unfold was quite traumatic as a child. Space flight is risky, but it was sold to us and routine and the first civilian in space was exciting. 1/2

QTP with a ship that’s not from Star Wars or Star Trek

Thinking of making a new vinyl cutter. My other one I made was an attachment to my CNC so takes up a lot of desk space.

Oh, PWEI came on our random playlist. Such a shame.

When will people learn? All English people want is - no fireworks, no noise after 8pm, no unexpected visitors, no phone calls, no noise before 8pm and the sweet release of death - is that too much to ask?

I was going to do this with some highlights, decided to try with single block colours. I think it came out ok. #CrossStitch

Mini crème eggs have a poor fondant to chocolate ratio. No further comment.

I am loving the colours on this!

Started off today’s music with Vic Reeves and The Wonder Stuff. This track stays with me because I was working for a games publisher and ‘Dizzy’ was our signature character, so we all loved it. Of course, I love The Wonder Stuff for more than this one, but this is special ❤️ youtu.be/BZzsi1y82Y8?...

Been out the house again for another hospital trip (nothing serious) but it is still so exhausting! Anyway, sat reclined on the sofa now with my chilli pepper #CrossStitch whilst @aelfida.bsky.social is enjoying her #painting. Bliss.

Filled in a bit of the colour today, not loads but on and off during the day. #CrossStitch

This migraine is keeping me awake, I just need it to stop.

Finished the outline, migraine starting to affect my vision now so that is it for the night #CrossStitch

Outline of the pepper in half stitch, going round again to full stitch. #CrossStitch

Finally got the mental energy to break out a #CrossStitch, just a simple hot pepper. Also, new needle minder!
