I took a needle felting class today. It was extremely cathartic and satisfying, and I'm pretty happy with the results.

It's taken A LOT of work to get it here, but I'm really proud of my veggie garden this year. It's a small thing, but in such a scary, uncertain time it's really satisfying to help nurture something beautiful and watch it grow.

My first attempt at spinning has been plied. This has been such a fun process to learn!

Arwen will never pass on a good nap in a comfy chair.

She is done! This was a very cathartic project to work on.

Finished weaving my first towel in green and white organic cotton. Creating something in the face of so much uncertainty and wilful destruction feels like an act of resistance at this point, however small. I hope you find those sustaining acts of resistance too.
