Suppose I should introduce myself. I’m Aislin, 34, exhausted single parent in England. I embroider stuff, I cross stitch, I parent, I try to survive and barely ever leave my house. That’s basically it. I’m not very interesting :p but hi anyway.
Pro tip:
When you’re done watching the eclipse you can use this thingy to drain your pasta
Follow me for more life-hacks 👍🏻
(Don’t actually follow me though this is just a stupid joke)

Finished the embroidery part on my son’s Pokémon jacket! Now for the washing part… that’s less fun
The colour change is totally intentional shading and not some idiot* muddling their dmc white threads… honest
*me. It was me. Shush. We love a good oops.

Two out of three panels finished (plus the collar embellishment). Just another “you should be” to do then my daughter’s Taylor Swift jacket is finished (and I can start on the boys’ pokemon jackets!)

And I’ve drawn up patterns for my sons’ jackets
The biggest lettering is going to be tricky… I’ll figure it out as I go!

There’s going to be more on the side panels, so when she raises her hands or puts them on her hips
Who’s afraid of little old me?

Every project, all year, I kept the off cuts of thread to make a bauble. I can see the glow in the dark pink thread from my jacket, the forget me not blue from my father’s memorial piece, bright rainbows from a pride piece… it’s nice to see the year’s work

Every time I put on my ironing hat, I think “I have an ironing hat, a hat I wear when I am ironing” sounds like a quickfire lie from Would I Lie To You #WILTY

This would be a lot easier if I a) had a sewing machine b) had any idea what I was doing 😝
WIP. My sunflower jeans wore out and I didn’t want to bin them so… attempting to make a bag! The elastic waistband tripped me up, so it’s a little wonky, but it’s not terrible!
Lining and straps next

And made myself some needle minders with cheap charms, magnets, and buttons
Tried to take the loops off and decided it looked messy/screwed the edges up so left on for the next two
