Stellarium Dress

My original plan was to paint a planetarium dress with the Solar System as the main focus, but I got so carried away with making the dress go woooosh that the composition no longer works for a Solar System lol. I'm still happy with how this one turned out, and I still get to paint the actual planetarium dress later ahahaha The full hours long video recording, HD image, and PSD file will be DMed on my Patreon on March 3rd

it's so funny how tumblr rolls out updates because i keep seeing a slowly growing number of posts about how terrible it is but your tumblr is the same. it's like a slow going zombie apocalypse. there is no escape but for now you're alive

It is done!!!! I finished sewing (see my earlier post) and managed to get a nice sunny picture of the whole blanket as well 🥰 incredible. I haven't measured it but I'd say it's more than the envisioned 2m in length 😅 not dramatically more though and it's a really nice length as well, so I'm very happy ❤️

This doesn't mean the blanket is finished though. First order of business is to clean up the sewing. There's places where either the seams have come undone or I forgot to weave in the end or the end is tiny and I now have to magic knot on a longer end to properly secure the seam - as well as the edge seams that have come undone quite a while ago. I've already started on this in the afternoon (after taking this picture 😁). Second order of business is to crochet a border around the whole thing so a) the edge is really secure and b) it looks more cohesive and finished (like it's framed 😃). Both of these make it kind of hard to have a cat in your lap while you're doing it though, so let's see how well Tilly lets me progress on this 😁 I still have to look up which crochet stitch will look good for this and then probably practice a bit before committing on the blanket. I've dabbled a bit in crochet before but it's not really my thing, so I'm not super great at it. Any suggestions for edging stitches are welcome!

To celebrate this milestone we have two Tilly pictures in the blanket 🎉🎉🎉

I started sewing this together on 14.08.2023 and finished today, 06.04.2025, which means this took me 1 year and almost 8 months. In the grand scheme of this project, that's nothing 😁

Thank you everyone for your enthusiasm for my little project, it's really nice to see other people being excited for this thing I started almost 10 years ago ❤️❤️❤️ Here's to finishing it off by November! I'll keep you posted 😊

As always, the pattern is "Puzzle Pieces" by Megan Ellinger and can be found on Ravelry. Find my other progress posts under the tag "#puzzle pieces blanket".

'No, YOU scared it off!' 😡😡

every day i think about how wild vaporeon would live mostly in the water but come to shore to have their pups (eevee), and then would probably groom their pups in a special way to trap air bubbles in their soft fur to make them more bouyant so they can float unaided on the water. and then as soon as the eevee have control of their little legs they're being taught how to swim, so you could come to a lake at a certain time of year ans see a vaporeon swimming around with a tiny soaked eevee paddling along behind it like

Two recent knits I finished. A cute little cable le hat and a giant shawl!
