Never too cold for a Saturday afternoon #teslatakedown outside a showroom in Chicago. These protests tarnish the brand, but also drive home the point that an unelected billionaire is meddling with people’s livelihoods and critical programs like Social Security. Every little bit helps.

Wind and rain and determination. This is what democracy looked like in Chicago on March 4! Thanks for galvanizing these protests @50501movement.bsky.social #50501protest #protest

Chicagoans would rather freeze their fannies off and drink Malort than see Musk ransack our democracy. #TeslaTakedown in downtown Chicago today. #indivisble

When our grandchildren ask what we did during the Coup of 2025 will we be able to say that we had enough courage and fortitude to stop buying crap for one day? On Feb. 28, don't shop online, in big box stores, no Amazon, no Walmart, no Best Buy, fast food nor gas.

For someone’s first birthday. She could care less but her mom will like it! I used thrifted fabric and some vintage French ribbon I got on Etsy. #garmentsewing #sewing #sustainablesewing

Chicagoans turned out in bitter cold to demand that senators Durbin and Duckwirth use every tool available to stop the Mump takeover of our democracy. Thanks @indivisible.org @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social ! I have a feeling we’ll be doing a more of these…. #resist #protest #rally #indivisible

More gloom today, so donning my loud pants. This is @openstudiopatterns.bsky.social Shop Pant in heavy vintage velvet curtain fabric. Love the pattern’s deeep front pockets and subtle balloon shape created by a seam below the knees. #garmentsewing #sewing #sewsky #skysew

A grey day. Crossbody bag with a free Core Fabrics pattern. Cropped “Slipover” vest from Trine Kristenson on Ravelry, shirt with vintage fabric. I recommend the Lieslandco Classic Shirt pattern—excellent instructions and your choice of bust size. #sewing #Sewsky #upcycle #garmentsewing

Hello #skysew peeps! Today’s artsy crafty #garmentsewing look is a Folkwear Patterns Basics Pinafore in a lightweight wool. Blouse is Galicia from Itch to Stitch. In the second image I am subtly pointing out the hand done topstitching I did along the straps and pockets. Fabric and boots thrifted.

Today’s me-made plaidfest with @openstudiopatterns.bsky.social Shop Pant and a hacked Birch Vest from Scout Patterns. The plaid shirt is thrifted and the vest uses various thrifted wools and mismatched buttons. The pants are a lightweight wool that matches the vest front panels. #garmentsewing

Reminds me of some pjs I made from two different vintage sheets. Love those cheerful 60s colors.
