Heartache Kits
@hsticka.bsky.social
I just wanted to fix up a house and now look at this.

I have no money to give you, even when I want to.
Fuck crypto and the trumpsterfire.

This is my yelling hole. Don't like my posts. I'm just yelling. Or do. Idc. YELLING.
I DID IT.

I saved an old phone box, AND THE FOUND A PERFECT USE FOR IT.

This is not a new concept, ffs.

Okay. I don't want to think about this anymore.

Blue matches the silk lining of the earpads and pouch.
Warm violet is my fave, but not repeated on the headphones.
Periwinkle is a lovely compromise, but then it *almost* matches the blue silk.

Thoughts? #craftsky #artsky #HandEmbroidery #Embroidery

Omg I can't with how these boys constantly smile with their little cat cheeks.

After a week of doing things for everyone else, I stood firm against my instincts and did embroidery for myself today. These bouillon stitches are more tedious than french knots! I was thinking of adding blue flowers that match the silk and opalite, but I keep wanting purple in my heart.

I may be broke, waiting forever to be fixed up enough to look for work, and struggling with self perception after late Audhd diagnosis, but good-got-daymn if I don't live in a fantastic castle and feel at home in it for the first time in my life.

Post something random or you'll have an awful December

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I think I have to redo the #HandEmbroidery and everything, all because I had a tremor in my lymphy hand hard enough to shake the earpad while I was trimming the extra fabric.

I thought I was going to be done tomorrow.

Peri-M is apparently choosing violence this week with random manic panic attacks. (I see it.) I couldn't even play an Rpg to shut down because I picked up my phone @ every load screen. Plugged in Focus Friend for 20m and got a lot more put together than expected. Thank you @hankgreen.bsky.social!

I mean, this guy very obviously loved his dog. Doesn't make him less of a murderer.

Today is cleaning day and I am angry bunny stomping because LOOKIT THESE SHROOMIES.

All this momentum and my spine takes me out. I AM SO CLOSE TO SOLVING THIS SHIT. Basting was the key. #SewingSky #HandEmbroidery #Embroidery

Embroidering skeletons being slowly eaten by forest floors and recovering my headphones with them. Also, embroidery of jewelry.

#sewingsky, @dieworkwear.bsky.social please help

I need to sew an oval into two layers of silk. The oval will be cut after and used as the earpiece cover on my embroidered headphones. I want the double layer to reinforce the silk edge, but I keep getting boobs! How do I make this stay flat?

All the pieces for my first home assembled zipper have arrived. I broke down and used etsy even though they treat sellers like crap because idk how else to find these things in less than industrial gross amounts otherwise.

Now to decide which pull for the iPad case...

Except please do because as I've aged and my skeletal disease worsens, I've become enamoured with skellies.

My response was too long, and it lost the right tone when split.

I'm blue af, and I'm pissed at my neighbors because I voted FOR their interests even though they voted against my rights. That said, a ton are seeing the light and we need to have the patience to teach them how the light is good.

Tonight is the last warm night before the first cold snap. The moon is huge and yellow, my window are open and candles lit, and I finished four #HandEmbroidery jewelry sets. It feels so nice to have another project completed. Tomorrow, I do more experiments with the silk for my headphones!
November 8, 2025 at 2:25 AM
Did you find a lap craft? I've been thinking about sending you an embroidery kit, either pre-made or just stuff in a box and a link to my pinterest board where I get all my stitches. I mean, you can do this!
November 6, 2025 at 4:04 PM
Today I finished my first #HandEmbroidery jewelry set. Lily of the valley on hand dyed cotton velvet scraps!
November 4, 2025 at 11:48 PM
It is! Look at the match to that stone! It's the lining of my earpad on my headphones and the inside of the iPad sleeve I'm making.

I'm going to request USPS or stfu.

Did I mention that I'm building a custom zipper for my #HandEmbroidery project? Bought the blue and bronze zipper tape to match the opalite silk, a skull zipper stop, and a Hamlet skull zipper pull. I've not built a zipper before, but I'm sure I'll figure it out. I always do.

Omg I love embroidery.

He's in pain. Dentures clenched, eyebrows pinched, eyes tight, smile more strained than usual.

Good.

Sure!
