I hate when avatar sites shut down, but I also know I was inactive for like 2 years, so I wasn't exactly helping... >.<
So sad though!

I miss Syndrone a lot because it had such an interesting style that was different from other places. And it closed so suddenly.

@FUZZY: Your avatar is looking amazing right now! I love the monochrome OuO

@Wildfire: OMG! Hi! How are you!

@milkshake: Oh yeah, a new born would totally take up a lot of free time.
I hope you are enjoying being a parent though!

@Qiqi Agatha: Wow, that's wild! There really shouldn't be anything AI generated on etsy.
From what I've seen of people trying to get AI to do crochet patterns, it really doesn't understand what it's doing. I follow someone who makes the patterns exactly as they are given, and it's not at all correct. Like the AI is just spitting out random numbers.
If it was closer to accurate and then they modified it to make it better. Like they made the thing and then made adjustments. Then I guess I wouldn't mind if they were selling it. If it was just a tool to get them started on the pattern.

@Qiqi Agatha: I love finding cute stuff on Etsy. These days it can be hard to tell if it's actually homemade or if it's something they bought to resell. But I try to find them on instagram and that usually tells you if they actually make the items.

The little tongue is so cute!!

@Qiqi Agatha: I think sewing is one of the hardest crafts. So I'm always so amazed when I see people who make their own plushies or something. Even the design side I don't understand, but to make it too! That's like magic!
I love getting handmade things at conventions or craft fairs.

@Qiqi Agatha: I think sewing is a million times harder than anything I do! Hand and machine sewing are both impossible for me. >.<

My fashion lately is oversized tshirt and I've been rolling up the sleeves and I took a day to sew the sleeves rolled up, and it was amazing how frustrating it was. I was like "it's just straight lines, why do I suck??"

I recently popped onto Gaia to see if old friends are around. I'm not in on the gossip and I'm so glad I don't know any of the drama. I used to live in the Gaia community discussion and looking back, it was a lot of drama..

We all knew it would happen again. There was a look of mischief there. lol

@Qiqi Agatha: My mom and grandma are/were both serious crafters, so I grew up with crafting around me. Cross stitch isn't that hard, it's like easy embroidery. you just make Xs on fabric to form a pattern. It takes a long time but it's pretty easy really. So like, its a heart:

I do little weaves on a baby loom with regular yarn, to make like little tapestries to hang on the wall. I've only done it a few times so far, and I can't seem to keep the tension even... they all get more narrow at the top. >.<

@Qiqi Agatha: I mentioned crafting in Fuzzy's hangout thread, but neither of you seemed to notice that I posted in there.
I do crochet, latch hook, cross stitch, weaving, sometimes jewelry.

@CV01: My sister joined, I think Caedon maybe... and posted like 2 times and was like, no thanks.
But she's the one who made me join a role-play forum when I was like 11, and started this whole forum thing to begin with! She could at least still be here with me. ¬_¬

@CV01: That's fair, I think it's a specific type of person who likes to be on forums. I keep trying to get my friends to join, but they never really do any talking or posting. lol
