Brumma left for a bit, so I managed to sew a couple of patches on the jacket (one on each shoulderblade), but now she's back...

This is my life now.

a tortoiseshell cat is lying on top of a denim jacket on a bed. right below her in the image you can see a pale human belly, indicating that the cat is on top of the person's thighs. two patches are visible on the jacket's left lapel, a pride flag heart saying "love is love" and a trans flag that says "trans rights"

I got my brother to pick up my package (after walking him through the steps of picking up a package with a QR code for the first time), so I am now the proud owner of a vintage skirt hem marker!

And Brumma has a new cardboard box to play in!
We are both very excited.

in the front right of the image is a skirt hem marker with a red base and a red chalk compartment, and yellow air hose and pump. a small bag of chalk is leaned against the base. to the right of it is the blue box for it. the left half of the image has a big cardboard box full of crumpled up newspapers, with a tortoiseshell cat in the middle of it.

And, in little hat: Yesterday put on the brim wire and petersham. You could do this by machine if you were willing to get annoyed at the million clips and/or pins you'd need, but I just did it by hand.

Close up photo of the process of sewing on a clear brim wire to the brim edge of a black linen hat with a round crown. A bit of whipstitch is applied around the clear plastic, pulling it snug to and affixing it to the edge of the brim. The stitches are not incredibly dense. A needle with black doubled up thread is poked vertically through the brim. Sini's hand with many silver rings holding onto the brim of the hat.

A photo from farther away, now in daylight, of the top side of the hat and brim. It's wonderfully smooth and there is a curved bit of petersham ribbon, also black, affixed to the brim edge. The texture of the black linen is a bit obscured by just so much wispy cat hair, kindly lent by both of the cats loitering in the background. A ginger tabby and a white and brown classic tabby. The latter is looking a bit annoyed that his route is blocked by cat and hat.

Kitty pls, I was trying to do sewing things.

At least I could unpick the old patch (sorry Commodore Hustle patch, Outer Wilds deserves the best placement) without her protests, but I can't reach the thread and scissors.

a denim jacket has been draped over my legs and my homemade Outer Wilds Ventures patch has been placed at the top of the right sleeve. below it is a she/her cross stitch patch and a pride flag. on the other side of the jacket is a tortoiseshell cat who looks bothered by my presence

#SewingWithCats update. Cats have participated.

A selfie camera shot of Sini sitting at her desk, with the makings of a jacket in front of her, and a ginger tabby cat in her lap... And a black and white tuxedo cat sitting at her elbow, mostly leaning into her forearm which she is using to brace her cheek. She is looking at him, with a sort of affectionate could you fucking not type of smile. Sewing things, keyboard, hand cream, a little tripod and a coffee mug on the desk.

Meanwhile, in #SewingWithCats. Open for a short clip of me in unflattering house clothes, messing about with unpicking a seam, as Karvinen experiences small kitty bliss.

Today in #SewingWithCats - a double cat sewing experience. (Contains footage of me working around two cats in gif form.)

Ah yes, a double-cat on my sewing. Quite effective! I couldn't pick between the photos so just put together all three of the best ones.

Three photos side by side, of two cats sitting snug together on a piece of white fabric, upon on a desk. On the left a ginger tabby cat and on the right a mostly black tuxedo cat. They are leaning lightly against each other, and in the three photos doing different cute cat expressions. Mid blink in the shot, doing a little head tilt, affectionately headbutting the other cat. They are quite adorable, all soft and so primly sitting, whiskers pointed towards the camera, politely making demands of Sini's time and attention. Completely and fully stopping not only the sewing, but also the watching of the screen behind them, where a woman with blue hair on YouTube is doing a video essay. The lighting is a mix of cool winter sunlight and warm yellow artificial light.

And in #SewingWithCats - Karvinen is helping me in disassembling this linen shift so I can toss the threadbare bits and repurpose the fabric that is still good. Invaluable assistance!

An adorable photo, on a Dutch angle which is to say artistically on the wonk, of a ginger tabby cat rolling around on and under white linen. He has crawled under a smooth fold of it, and has somehow managed to get one of his back paws also on a sliver of seam allowance being trimmed off. His fur is a deep caramel, with red and copper shadows, and some creamy nougat bits on his underside, which is seen here somewhat as he's on his back, curled up in a belly up croissant. His front paws are tucked into his chest, curled like bunny legs, and his forehead flat against the desk surface. His eyes are half closed and he exudes a sense of deep enjoyment, comfort and knowing how absurdly cute he is. There's a sewing machine and another pile of fabric in the background. Cold blue winter light attempts to cast him in cool tones and fails, he is radiantly orange in lamplight.

I decided that I'm done embroidered through felt for this project, so I'm adding a lining fabric to my "skirt sack".
I only got halfway though, because even if the fabric is just a foot wide scrap, it's still perfect for Brumma to sleep on apparently...

a chonky tortoiseshell cat is asleep on top of pale green cotton fabric lying on a plaid bedsheet. the fabric is so narrow that part of her butt is off to the side of it. Her face is pointing downwards. close to her front paw is the corner of a wooden serving tray with legs.
