#ProtestDolls
Some official looking fair people in a golf cart just stopped us in the drop off line so they could take pictures of the #ProtestDolls 🥹

It happened before the fair started. No ribbons for #ProtestDolls, but when I stopped to visit them yesterday, they were fairly well displayed and people were taking pictures

I do expect y'all to make a massive public outcry if #ProtestDolls get disqualified

I no longer have finger prints on my thumbs, and I have a bunch of glue threads to clean up, BUT! I have three pairs of shoes!

Gone from no planned exhibitions to having work in 3 at same time. This is probably the best though & will resonate with people fed up of seeing their beautiful landscapes scarred by wind turbines, pylons & solar farms. @workersgallery.bsky.social #Craftivism #ProtestDolls #Wales #PlacesNotProfit

Now that #ProtestDolls are sent off to sleep away camp, I'm turning my focus back to #NaeKingsQuilt, and I'm determined to do it to perfection. I unpicked this row again and stitched it for the third time, and it was WORTH IT

Did a practice #ProtestDolls sign and it's passable, but I don't love it. So I'm going to play some video games about it

May have to bring back these sad little pussy hat/papier mache dolls....just can't seem to find the energy.

The #ProtestDolls are ready to be dropped off for judging. Each sign has alternate text on the other side. Wish them luck! I'll report back on opening day (8/21) with the results!

In hindsight, I'm still glad I set myself the goal of finishing all the sewing for the #ProtestDolls this weekend even though I fell spectacularly short. If I hadn't, I probably wouldn't have attempted the shoes for another week or two, and it would be an even more stressful failure.
I hate these shoes. I've purchased a new pattern. C'est la vie

My goal for this weekend is to finish the sewing for #ProtestDolls

This means:
🔳 Finishing flannel shirt
🔳 Making hoodie
🔳 Pair of Shoes 1
🔳 Pair of Shoes 2
🔳 Pair of Shoes 3

I'll worry about styling and sign making later. Once the dolls are all sewn up, I can start piecing together #NaeKingsQuilt

The plaids don't match. Will it affect the judging? Probably. But it's done. #ProtestDolls #DuckingCreativeDuck

It would have been so damn disappointing to show up with the #ProtestDolls on drop off day only to find out I want actually registered 😂

As it is, I'm already concerned they don't "fit the brief" of depicting a story.

Not so much about the #ProtestDolls... I do plan on having them done this week. But #NaeKingsQuilt terrifies me

"Duck, isn't that a lot of sewing?"
Yes, yes it is

"Don't you still have, like, a month to finish this stuff?"
Yes, but I have so little faith in my quilting that I want to make sure the #ProtestDolls are presentation worthy so if the quilt goes off the rails, I'll have SOMETHING to submit.
