“It can hammer faster and harder than ten men and it never has to stop and rest.” Through sheer determination, John Henry beats the machine. And he dies in the process.

Creative people, we keep going even with the machine coming at us. Even as our heart bursts. “Dying ain’t important. Everybody does that. What matters is how well you do your living.” ✨

Patron says “I like orchids” and this comes out of me in a matter of minutes. Everything I needed was right here… just waiting for the right prompt. 😏 It’s what .makerspace calls “Human Generative Intelligence.” 🧠

I lost a bunch of subscribers from my newsletter because of Pride. And that’s how it should be. This is a space for LGBTQIA+ people and allies. Also a space for immigrants, non-English speakers, disabled folks, neurodivergent folks, activists, SJWs, anti-Fascists. Non negotiable.

My platform is small but I’m going to use it.

I just found this donation in the supply closet. Thought it might make a handy visual aid for the homophobes couching their homophobia in “concerns” for the children. 😘

Please don’t throw out your watercolor paintings! Doodle on them, cut them up, punch them out, emboss them! I’m sharing some of my favorite paper punches here, including the best corner rounder. ✨

This Friday and Saturday at 7pm we're doing drop-dead-simple, first-time-friendly embroidery with a big impact: constellations! 💫

Beads and straight lines mean a custom starscape in under 90 mins. The hardest part is picking which one you want to make.

Feeling fancy? Add French knots and shimmery filament, background stars and words. But that's all optional.

As always: open studio is available with or without a workshop, come solo, BYO whatever, no reservations needed, 14+ ✨

Fri 6.12 + Sat 6.13 • 7pm: Constellation Embroidery
Sat 6.13 • 2pm: D&D Intro One-Shot
Sun 6.14 • 3pm: Q***r Rainbow Crafts

This might be my greatest creative achievement: a gacha that dispenses a tarot card sticker. Witchy AND kitschy. Just like me. ✨

Let the Shiba Inu of Destiny provide you with guidance at your next studio visit! 🔮🐕

Here's a visibility update on our Pay It Forward board as of Friday, June 5. We've received two new tokens and Doug's PIF token was redeemed (thank you, Doug!). That puts us at 5 PIF visits available for anyone who needs one!

James sent his over with the note: "People don't have money for groceries, never mind for crafting." 😂Truth, James. Truth. We need bread AND poetry.

How it works: you’ve had a great time at the studio and want others to experience it… so you buy a flashy token and stick it on the board. You can share your name or be anonymous.

Someone else comes in who might need some support to spend time here. They take the token off the board and redeem it for admission. No questions asked.

This is what community looks like. ✨

I got sucked into the process and a little zine was born. ✨
