anyway i'm thinking about how i'm only like one generation removed from the women in my family who made clothes because they had to/it was the cultural norm and here i am teaching myself these skills for fun via internet tutorials because there wasn't any reason to pass them down. the fashion industry has changed so much in the past like 50 years and making a garment from start to finish and seeing the actual monetary and time costs play out has reaffirmed a lot of my previous beliefs abt fast fashion & given me a frame of reference to compare store-bought clothes to. idk. i'd encourage anyone to try their hand in making a piece of clothing for themselves because it just teaches you So Much along the way. and i really hope that this is just the beginning of making clothes for me :))) hopefully the next thing i make doesn't take me three years to finish, but even if it does i'll gladly take it lmao

First woodworking project in many years! My teakettle was living on the floor for a little while, so I decided to make a small table for it to sit on. The lady who runs the makerspace was very helpful; she showed me how to use the machines and let me use some plywood they had in storage from disassembled library bookcases.

I have finally overcome my fear of commitment and put some of my precious Clayfellow stickers on my green sewing machine. The question is, to oof or not to oof?

me about other people's cosplays: Who cares if it's not 100% accurate? Nobody cares about little details! As long as you're having fun you're doing great!
me about my own cosplays: I can't use a zipper in this cosplay because I don't know if zippers exist in the world of teyvat. I see no evidence of snaps either. Guess I have to learn to sew a button hole. For accuracy.

Oh the sewing machine finally stopped fighting me and works smoothly now... hopefully *knock on wood*
I am just sewing stuff for my friends though, using the straight stitch. I am scared what is going to happen with the zigzagg stitch, like I need to change the needle and all, never done that that is scary((
(Also a reminder for my self I need to buy more spuls)

Sewing machines come in a lot of different styles and sizes, so choosing the right one might be tricky. Our lives require the ability to sew in many different contexts.

A/N: i am back from the dead after months. And it should’ve come as a surprise that I absolutely loved Hobie. Looks like a rockstar and is an absolute punk. My type in a nutshell.
I’m gonna be using some of these headcanon for future
Gal in The Chair — Hobie Brown x Artist!Reader
Tumblr media
I think Hobie would be the kind of guy to fall for someone who he’s known for a long while, that being said, you’d perhaps known him all of your life
Having grown together, the two of you shaped a lot of each other’s beliefs. So no wonder the two of you were so compatible.
After the spider bite, you saw the whole journey from Hobie freaking out at first, to him figuring out how to use his new abilities.
He designed his web shooters, being the genius he is with technology. You helped him with his suit, specially his mask.
You became his Gal in the Chair
You liked to fix up and personalise clothes. All of your pieces of clothings came from second hand shops and you gave them a make over doing all sorts of stuff on them to make them unique and yours.
You also did this with a lot of Hobie’s clothes. As well as teaching him how to use your sewing machine.
After graduating high school, you opened a small alternative clothing shop in with unique pieces, doing the same thing you did for your clothes on this one. As well as doing hand made jewerly like bracelets, necklaces and earrings. You also had a talent with plants, managing to almost magically bring plants back to life and reproduce them like crazy, you added selling plants into your small business.
As Spider-Man gained traction, he low key promoted your work to his followers and people who agreed with him. This in order to keep negative attention from falling on you, and keep bad guys from thinking and theorising that maybe you knew Spider-Man.
As a side gig, you educated yourself on coffee making, and learned about the different processes and types of coffee beans there were. It started as a hobby, but soon you also implemented that into your shop.
The fact that you were so versatile, made Hobie feel incredibly proud of you. You seemed to be so independent, and creative and that never ending curiosity and passion made him harvest feelings for you.
Eventually, the close friendship, and companionship grew into affectionate and romantic feelings.
Hobie was always flirty, but it wasn’t until now that you started behaving differently. Normally he played his electric guitar but now you found him playing his acoustic guitar more.
He showed you a song he wrote. And while it was unusual —however, not imposible— to hear a romantic song coming from him, it wasn’t until the first minute that you realised the song was about you.
That’s how he chose to tell you about his feelings.
He didn’t intend for it to be this romantic, he simply one day word vomited the song and used one free afternoon to add the music.
After hearing his song, it was actually you who grabbed him and kissed him.
More than satisfied with the outcome, he kissed you back, put his guitar down and pulled you over his lap.
You two became inseparable since. You already were, but now it was more evident.
You worked at home, doing all the creative things you did, selling them, helping Spider-Man with art shows and gigs.
Those who paid close attention, they were able to determine you were some sort of associate to Spider-Man. However, all of them were also punks and anarchist so of course they kept their mouths shut. Spider-Man was always looking out for those in need. They were going to help a brother back and not tell anyone whenever any authority or weird-looking threat asked if anyone knew Spider-Man, or someone close to him.
You became widely known between Spider-Man supporters, although none of them would ever dare to snitch on you.
After Hobie met Gwen, she brought her over, you two became close friends right away. Letting Gwen crash at your place more often than not. She even offered to help you with the dishes and the groceries as thanks for letting her stay.
“You’re Hobie’s friend, you’re welcome whenever you want,” You’d told her.
Pav was also a frequent visitor. He loved your coffee, he taught you how to make chai. And you had chai ready for whenever Hobie told you Pav was going to be there.
Pav also bought plants from you all the time. Most of them for his mom. He once asked you if you could make a set of earrings and a necklace for his mom.
The set was a success and Pav always told you how much she loved them,
Eventually Miles also came around. And it wasn’t until Miles met you that his suspicions of Hobie and Gwen dating dissappeared.
Miles saw the absolute pure love with which Hobie looked at you. He still made the same sarcastic and cheeky jokes while talking to you. But the way he looked at you was completely different to the way he looked at anyone else.
Hobie convinced Miles to buy a plant and some earrings for his mother.
“Listen mate, this is what my girl does for a living. Plus the world needs to learn to appreciate the handiwork of an artisan,”
Miles was even surprised at how Hobie still looked cool while being mushy and cheesy with you as he hugged you, kissed your head, or played with your hands or hair.
Hobie had zero fucks to give about what people think about him, he doesn’t give a shit about PDA. Gwen thinks it’s gross, Pav thinks it’s adorable, Miles is simply puzzled as to how he is still cool when seeing his parents doing the same thing would make him cringe so hard.
Hobie is amused by the different reactions he gets. Especially Gwen’s grossed out face.
He still loves kissing you every chance he gets. Whether if it’s kissing you passionately. A subtle peck. Sweet kissed on your cheek or your forehead.
