don't worry, there is blue, black and grey, they are just much more abundant

very satisfying but now I have to figure out where it all goes

I got one box emptied out and it's been claimed

oh hey it worked?

I'm alive but she's annoyed by my incompetence

I have been working on this spinning project for months and all the singles are finally done and now I have to ply it all together. or I could start something new instead 🤔

got it fixed with some help and indigo extraction #1 of 2026 has begun. moved from 70qt bucket to 70 gall stock tank (it's not full)

I checked for leaks and didn't see anything, filled it up and now it's dripping. fuck.

I'm thinking of getting this little one, so I don't have to borrow the one that the farm workers use. you can flip it over for kneeling

I finished sewing the different dress last night! Going to pick up thread for the pants and other dress, so I can start one of those tonight. but first i have to do real "work"

I think we're going to be 0/2 today and that's fine!! we had a nice long lie in and I'm probably going gorp today and that's boring imo.

also went to the thrift because I was close by and got a lifetime supply of cotton sewing thread, sock needles and and a fun old burda pattern

I went for 2 colours of embroidery floss and some perle cotton but couldn't resist this paint by number. it was on clearance.
