One day, I shall sew the family heirloom. In the meantime, I'm practicing.

Almost everyone I know is sick right now.
They’ve got a “bad flu” or a “nasty stomach bug”.
Almost no one will utter the word Covid.
It’s not too late to start wearing a mask.
It’s a great way to practice community care while keeping yourself healthy.
Ideally an N95 or better!

Let's be very clear that one of the major effects of the CDC no longer recommending various vaccinations is that it becomes much harder for folks who still want to be—or want their children to be—vaccinated to get their insurance providers to cover those vaccinations.

The quilt is finished! Please ignore the chalk lines and stray threads. It’s already in the wash, and I’ll take porch photos tomorrow.

This DOJ behavior is absurd. The court held that Halligan is not legally a United States Attorney. There is no need for a further order to implement that. Her name on a brief, indictment, etc. is graffiti. Any “US attorney” action taken by her is invalid because it is the conduct of an imposter.
We know you said we're behaving illegally, but you didn't tell us to stop, so ...

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.

It's an actual game plan on the right. They use it for book bans as well. They start with something easy: no porn in libraries. That hooks in the low information folks. Then you slowly broaden the scope until you're yanking any YA that violates Christian nationalism.
one of many parallels between anti-vaxxers & those who oppose gender-affirming care: they start by pretending they have a very specific concern (MMR vaccine, puberty blockers, etc), but once given any sway or say on the matter, they quickly strive to eliminate all of it
Kennedy's zombie ACIP panel just voted to restrict hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Experts say it will harm children for no reason. www.ms.now/news/rfk-cdc...
ACIP member Dr. Cody Meissner:
"'Do no harm' is a moral imperative. We are doing harm by changing this wording. And I vote no."

Did you know that disabled people are far more likely to experience domestic abuse or be trapped in violent relationships?
There’s an imbalance of power when you’re depending on others for activities of daily living.
Disability also keeps you below the poverty line.

We have enough money to feed, house and provide education & healthcare to all.
We don’t do it because the 1% oppose it.
The billionaire class benefits from keeping the rest of us in poverty.
They hoard the wealth and blame immigrants & marginalized people for economic hardship.
Tax the rich.

Wall quilt 22”x24”
Foundation paper piecing. Made for my dad’s wife soon after he had passed this Spring. I combined elements of two patterns and made the cat to look like her beloved cat, ItsyBitsy whom has since passed as well. ❤️

Table runner from Block Party Quilt Co kit for white elephant exchange. Imperfect, first go at free motion quilting. Big puckers on the back and no time to pick out and redo. Skills gained, lessons learned. #quiltsky #beginnersewist #sewingsky

The quilt was delivered, I can post photos now! It was a gift for my mom. It’s a little lumpy in this photo bc I had to finish drying it draped over the dining table/chairs.
