酔芙蓉

2022.10.20

花の文化園で酔芙蓉を撮ってきました。

今の時期、公園などに咲いていますよね。見たことありますか？

朝咲き始めた頃は花弁が白いが徐々にピンクに変色することから、酔って赤くなることに例えて「酔芙蓉」と名付けられたんですって。

ピンクに染まっていくシステムはここでは書きませんが、植物の不思議をかんじませんか。１日のうちで色が変わるんですよ。

はじめて見た時は、一つの花に白とピンクのグラデーションがキレイだなぁって感心したものです。八重咲きの花が可愛さをアップさせてますよね。

可愛いなって思いながら、なかなか撮らなかった酔芙蓉。だってそのまま見た方が可愛いですよ。撮ってる側が言うのはなんですけど。

What makes Sonamy not just a “Standard Couple” to you? What is the uniqueness in this relationship? I’m talking officially and in multimedia.

Such a big question… woof! I think… the reason Sonamy will always be the standout OTP is they represent pure love to me. Pure love is happiness. Love is meant to be fun!

I think Sonic and Amy have this wonderful dynamic that is so playful no matter what life throws at them.

Sonic is a free spirit and he feels the most joy when he’s running. I think he really enjoys the cat and mouse game that he and Amy play. He could easily outrun her, but whenever she chases him around he always stays within arm’s reach. In his own weird, quirky, not-good-at-expressing-my-feelings-kind-of way, I think this is Sonic’s way of sharing his joy with Amy. I don’t see it as “I’m running away from you.” I see it as “Run with me.”

I’m also always just completely overcome with emotion with Amy’s dedication and love for Sonic. To cherish someone so genuinely, to give your heart to someone unconditionally and without the expectation they’re going to reciprocate those feelings, that's real love. And in canon she's not this pained thing for doing that, either. She just loves freely and openly and is her happiest self when she's showing affection. I think her constant flirting and (though she doesn’t do this anymore) marriage proposals are just her rascally way to say “I find you and your way of life and everything you do romantic. I’m not actually asking you to do anything different. Just let me love you for you.”

There are plenty of ships out there that are full of angst/heartbreak/DRAMA/etc and believe me, I’m here for it. And I’m even here for when people apply those themes to Sonamy (I do it too!). But I think why I’m so naturally drawn to Sonic and Amy’s dynamic as it’s portrayed in canon is because it’s usually so fun and playful and happy. I think the world needs more of that. That’s why I always refer to them as my cotton-candy couple, not just because of their colors but because they’re so sweet and bright! 💙💖

ON THIS DAY - MAY 1st

♡ Samwise Gamgee marries Rosie Cotton

'And so it was settled. Sam Gamgee married Rose Cotton in the spring of 1420 (which was also famous for its weddings), and they came and lived at Bag End. And if Sam thought himself lucky, Frodo knew that he was more lucky himself; for there was not a hobbit in the Shire that was looked after with such care.'

took a stab at what i interpret rose and dave's fusion to look like from this fic written by @red-elric

#gemstuck #homestuck #hs #rose lalonde #dave strider #it was a fun challenge taking a stab at a “first fusion” design vs. the more complete/finalized ones ive been doing recently #kept a little pic of cotton candy garnet up while doodling it #that was the goal/intention to pull across #as it was a “panic” fusion in the fic #also this is NOT ship art and if you tag it as a ship i will block you instantly

Lovely purples for this summer outfit, pairing a shells pattern obi (abalone, conch, starfish, sea urchin), with a fuyo (cotton rose/hibiscus) mixed with smaller kikyo (Chinese bellflower) and nadeshiko (pinks).

I love how this kimono seems to have been altered to fit a taller wearer. The added white area will be covered when worn with an ohashori (waist tuck, done by women to wear a kimono nowadays)

How to Build a Fabric Stash without Breaking the Bank

Fabric can be expensive but it doesn’t have to be. If you are not stuck on Name Brands or Specialty Fabric Store Exclusives here are some ways to build your fabric stash without costing an arm and a leg. I have made many beautiful quilts using various fabrics from various supplies. And I believe that the quality is not just in the fabric you use but also in your stitch work and seams sizes. If your seams are less than a ¼” they will not hold (personally I prefer to use a ½” seam allowance). If you are not securing your thread ends, your stitch work is going to come undone. So be sure to watch these things too.

Look for fabric at your local Thrift Store (Goodwill, Value Village, etc.)

I have found some wonderful fabrics in various sizes, notions, storage items and more at my local Thrift Stores. I have even found unfinished quilt tops that I have brought home and added a backing to then quilted. Remember that almost any size fabric remnant can be added to other remnants to make some wonderful scrappy quilts so save your own remnants after making a quilt, you may be able to use it later in another quilt.

Look for local Fabric Sales held by Quilting Guilds in Your Area.

We have 2 near me every summer.One charges $2 per pound for any fabric. The second one charges $2 per yard for any fabric. Both also sell batting, notions, books, machines, tools, and more.

Look for fabric on Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor and other sites.

I sell extra fabric on Marketplace and Nextdoor. I have also found several ladies near me selling fabric that I have purchased. And some I have purchased with shipping to me.

Look for older 100% Cotton Sheets at your local Thrift Stores.

Back in the 1800’s and early 1900’s, Quilts were not show pieces. They were real functional blankets that were made from any and all fabrics they could get, usually used clothing. I think there is no reason why we cannot still do that instead of buying expensive fabrics. I have often used clothing, sheets, curtains, and other linens to make some wonderful, usable quilts. And there are some wonderful patterns you can use for quilts in bedsheets from the 1980’s and 1990’s. Note: I always wash anything from a Thrift Store before I use it.

Watch for Fabric Sales and Coupons for Joanns, Hobby Lobby and other Fabric & Craft Stores.

I know some quilters believe that the fabric from Joanns & Hobby Lobby is poor quality but I have not found any bad fabric from these stores. We do not have a “Quilting” store close to me and because I’m handicapped, I will not drive an hour or more just to buy expensive fabric. If I did that, I wouldn’t be able to afford to quilt. I will also buy fabric from Walmart but I am more careful with my selection there as most fabric at Walmart is good but I have had one or two pieces that I felt were poorer quality.

Watch for Fabric Sales and Coupons for your Local Quilt Shop.

Quilt shops will also have occasional sales and/or coupons so if you prefer to shop at these locations take notice of when they have sales. Also ask if they ever give discounts to seniors or military.

Use New or Older Clothing.

I have made a lot of beautiful Memorial Quilts from a loved one’s clothing and T-Shirt quilts. I will use jeans, work shirts, uniforms, flannel, cotton, polyester and even some knits. These can be a little trickier to work with because they are often stretchy fabrics but they will add a wonderful texture and visual variance to your quilts. I recently found a pair of cotton pants with Mickey Mouse on them. I fell in love with them because they were so colorful, and I love bold colors. I found several other cotton fabrics that matched the colors in the Mickey pants and made a bold colorful quilt!

Rethink Your Backing Fabric

No one ever said your quilt backing had to be all New Cotton. You can use Fleece, Flannel or Bed Sheets as well. On many occasions I have found some wonderful fleece blankets on clearance and used these for my quilt backing. Joanns right now has a great clearance sale on Flannel fabric. The best part about using some of these is that you can get then in a wider width so you may be able to make your backing in all one piece instead of 2 or more like when using regular cotton (unless you want your backing to be in various colors/patterns). You can also use new or older cotton bed sheets for a quilt backing. Again, you can make your quilt backing in one solid piece with a sheet!

Check the Clearance Section for Your Favorite On-Line Stores

I have several on-lines stores that I love to shop from (e-Quilter, Missouri Star, etc.) but sometimes they can be expensive so I always check the clearance section of these stores. There are times I will find some beautiful fabrics on clearance so will purchase it then look for matching piece everywhere else so I can get the best deals. Also check for on-line sales from Joanns, Hobby Lobby and other on-lines stores that sell fabric and/or sheets.

Check Out Your Local Garage, Moving and Estate Sales

I have found some of the best deals at moving and estate sales because often the seller is willing to bargain with you. I once found an estate sale where a family was selling off all their mother’s quilting and sewing items because she had passed away and none of then sewed. There was more fabric and notions than I would have used in a year so I found lots of thread and items I purchased at a great price.

Note on Batting

I know that many quilters believe that the only batting you should use is expensive cotton batting. I disagree. There are many forms of batting. Cotton/Poly blends, Polyester, and Fleece. I love cotton batting but cotton will break down quicker than polyester and I want my quilts to last a lifetime so for most of my quilts I actually use Polyester more often than not. I have taken the backing off many older quilts to do repair work and the cotton batting inside was all balled up and a real mess.

Now when I am doing the Quilt-as-you-Go method I use a Fleece batting. The fleece can be cut into smaller pieces, fabric added to the top and then sewn back together to make wonderful quilts. And the batting doesn’t get stuck in my machine.

Shop Around for your batting to find the best deals. Sometimes Joanns has a sale on batting but the best price I have found so far has been Walmart on-line. I can buy a 96” x 9 yard Bolt of Poly Batting for just $30 on Walmart on-line. This bolt will make 4+ quilts depending on the size of the quilt and I will have lots of left overs for smaller projects like pillows, etc. For me the best part is that because it’s 96” wide, I don’t have to piece together my batting before I can sandwich my quilt!
