Recreating a bag. I had the plastic on hand and it’s good to change up the sewing from time to time. #sewing

🪿✨ Goose says: wear your values. love. empathy. compassion. inclusion. justice. kindness. 🌈 Because even a porch goose knows the world needs more of all six. 💛 #PorchGoose #GooseFashion #PrideAllYear #KindnessIsCool #LoveAndJustice #porchgooseofbluesky #PracticalyHMD

Thank you @wvpublic.bsky.social for documenting this event. Thank you for continuing to report honestly to WV. My quote: ““We need to speak up against the things that are happening, cutting our health care for our neighbors,” she said. “That’s not cool.” she said.” wvpublic.org/story/govern...

Even when everything feels overpriced and upside down, you haven’t stopped imagining something better.

Taking a break…having a fun fire at Holly River State Campground in Hackers Valley, WV. Job interview tomorrow - virtual 😳 - bouncing back home for that…what do you do to decompress? #sewing #organizers

It was too nice to spend the entire day indoors. Went for a paddle and pushed of the #sewing until later…my arms are sore! 🤣 #buckhannonriver

🌟 Big news 🌟 After 33 weeks unemployed in a brutal job market, I finally landed a job offer. Background checks begin. There were so many days I thought I’d never work again, with politics messy and the world on fire. But persistence paid off. Today, I got an offer. 💙 #NewJob #FinallyEmployed

The only platform my kiddo isn’t on! 😂 So I can share the bday sewing project I made for her, here. She got a corgi this year and loves her dog very much. She also loves mushrooms! I combined the two. This is a little extra something from her mama. #sewing #etsyseller #practicalyhmd #celebrate

Genevieve is ready for spooky season! In 81°F temps today. 🤣 #porchgooseofbluesky #sewing

🍄🌻 Woodland vibes for your porch goose! This sunflower + mushroom dress with a matching bow and apron is ready to bring some cottagecore charm to your yard. 🪿✨ #practicallyhmd #sewing #porchgooseofbluesky #etsyseller

Took some out today to update my logo. It's been over 5 years and while very similar to the original, just a few graphic updates to fine tune it. Always moving forward with an eye to future. #etsyseller #sewing #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofbluesky

🪿✨ Soft-sculpt wings finally getting their moment! ✨🪿 These plush little flappers have been an add-on option for a while—but I never really showed them off. Each pair is hand-sewn into the sleeves for the perfect cozy touch. #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofbluesky #goosefashion #sewing

🪿✨ New Goose Outfits Just Landed! ✨🪿 Fall is almost here 🍂🎃 and my porch geese are ready! Five NEW handmade costumes just hit the shop: 🐝 Beekeeper (2 styles) 🍄 Woodland Mushroom ✏️ Back-to-School (2 styles) 🦄 Magical Unicorn 🎃 Pumpkin Patch #practicallyhmd #sewing #porchgooseofbluesky #etsyseller

10 new goose dresses fresh off the machine! 🪿✨ I’ll be at a protest sign-making event for a bit, then coming back to take product pics and get the listings live tonight. Stay tuned—these won’t last long! 💛✂️ #practicallyhmd #sewing #porchgooseofbluesky #etsyseller

Working on some more costumes and accessories. Also working on some other accessories- mini backpacks and other minis. It’s a challenge sewing small! 🪿🎃 #practicallyhmd #sewing #porchgooseofbluesky #etsyseller

Took this guy for his annual checkup today. He’d been struggling — 16 years old — but I didn’t expect it to be his last. Today, Snowball crossed the rainbow bridge. An unexpected shock, but also the release of a soul in pain. A beautiful boy. The bestest boy. 💔🌈 #RainbowBridge #BestestBoy #DogLove

Neighborhood watch, but make it feathery. 🪿 This porch goose means business—GET OFF MY LAWN!! 🪿🔥 #porchgoosecustom #practicallyhmd #sewing #porchgooseofbluesky #etsyseller

This Noodlehead Patterns Buckthorne tote/backpack is headed to for raffle at our local Buchanan River Watershed Association Riverfest event being held on August 23 this year. 💦❤️#sewing #waterislife #BRWARiverfest2025 #practicallyhmd

Buzzing into summer! 🐝 This bee-themed explorer outfit is ready for your porch goose—complete with sundress, net, and flower glasses! Arms & goose not included. Handmade with love. 🧵✨ #sewing #etsyseller #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofbluesky

I got requests for sundresses. The small arm holes were so impossible! I switched to this crossover design instead. #sewing #practicallyhmd #etsyseller #porchgooseofbluesky

I got so busy with orders last year I was not able to dress my Genevieve! I’ve since purchased a second model. Today Gen is trying to stay cool! #sewing #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofbluesky #etsyseller

Custom baby goose karate outfit for a wonderful customer. There are four belts for it. It was a fun little project. #sewing #practicallyhmd #etsyseller #porchgooseofbluesky

It’s 90 million degrees! Sent goose orders out and escaped to the river.

Up in the shop! More bee keepers, a pride bikini and an orange citrus bikini to keep summer flowing. Etsy link in my bio. #sewing #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofbluesky

Rainy day. Good day for catching up on projects undone… #sewing

I was really lucky to get offered a retreat this past weekend at Jerry Run (WV) and it was amazingly restorative. The on-stage morning yoga was a treat!

In honor of my mama. Happy pride month y’all!

A friends mom asked for a bee-kini and I couldn’t say no! Knocked this out with a couple more designs to list shortly. #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofblusky #sewing #etsyseller

This an <in progress> outfit for our local food pantry, Parish House. The lead greeter was missing his mother’s porch goose, is fighting cancer, and deserves the extra joy his co-greeter baby goose brings. Now for a hat! #porchgooseofbluesky #practicallyhmd #sewing #findthehelpers #upshurparishhouse

Serving citrus sass and beach day class! This porch goose is summer-ready in her lemon bikini, beach ball in wing, and sunnies on point. Who needs the ocean when your lawn is this fabulous? #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofbluesky #porchgoose #sewing

The beekeeper is ready to decorate your front porch! In the shop, next day ship. #sewing #practicallyhmd #etsyseller #porchgooseofbluesky

Buzz, buzz…coming soon…cut outfits two weeks back and finally getting to them! #sewing #practicallyhmd

Measure twice? Ha! Finishing these VW curtains up. 😳

I get anxious with a first sew. Working on curtains for a VW bus. Should be completed with ties tomorrow.

This Mother’s Day, I’m not asking for flowers. I’m asking for change. I’m thinking of my mom—a lesbian who came out in the 80s during the AIDS crisis—and the courage it took to live and love openly. (1/2)

I want to thank everyone who is purchasing goosewear from me right now. Being traumatically terminated this year, unable to find work still…has been stressful. Each sale keeps me busy, adds hope to my day, and makes me grateful I have a little something to help me get by. ❤️ #sewing #practicallyhmd

Commissioned to make curtains for an antique VW bus. Prepping the fabric and giving it an extra UV spray coating. I am hoping it helps hold off sun fade. More goose costumes on order & due to ship. More costumes cut and ready to sew. Plus - job search! Busy, busy this week.

Because…I want better for the next generations and this nonsense right now? Isn’t about bettering…envision a general strike! Sign up for it! Mayday rally and march in DC yesterday. #50501movement #nokings

Added today! Patriotic goose sundress and accessories. #practicallyhmd #sewing #etsyseller #porchgooseofbluesky

Outdoor photos are the best! Really makes the colors pop. #sewing #practicallyhmd #etsyseller #porchgooseofbluesky

Fresh off the machine. Summer tie-dye fun! Coming soon to the shop. #sewing #practicallyhmd #porchgooseofbluesky

She’s ready! I am truly angry at everything that’s going on with our government and our safety nuts. I only want the best for all of us! I am so thankful, to have the chance to take some time out for silliness here and there. #sewing #practicallhmd #etsyseller #porchgoose
