Thank You To All The Awesome People Who Came By My Table At Short Run And To The Mega Sweeties Who Gifted

Hey, your Bobby Hill comic was recently re-posted on Reddit, and it's the first time I've seen it since training to become a therapist. Do you have a background in therapy? Or a background of going to therapy? Because I have to say, the therapeutic style you used for Bobby in the comic is top notch. If you were a peer of mine I'd offer a few minor critiques, but really, amazing job.

Thank you!

I have been to therapy, and I do work in mental health. It's not something I talk about in-depth on this account (or any other account, honestly) due to the confidentiality of the work. Additionally, who I am on this account is not who I am in my mental health work; similar to how who I am at work is not (all of) who I am in my personal life.

Well, I may try to switch from Etsy at some point in the future... when I have the time to do that...

Etsy is somehow being even worse, do not click etsy ads

Etsy is now forcing shop owners to be part of their ads. We can not opt out.

To anyone who buys from etsy: DO NOT EVER CLICK THEIR ADS

They are rolling out a program where if you get a sale from an ad they put out, they’re taking 12-15% of the profit(probably on top of the like, 5%ish+ they already take). Even worse, if you have clicked an Etsy ad in the last 30 days ANYONE YOU BUY FROM ON ETSY IN THAT PERIOD WILL BE BILLED THAT FEE. 

So please, if you see an ad for something you like off etsy, do not click it. Just go on etsy and search for it.

This is somehow worse than what storenvy used to pull. 

Please go directly through an artist or see if they have their own storefront (I use bigcartel) instead of purchasing off etsy. And if you must, just please, please, never click an etsy ad.

Inktober day 5. Some faces and some class notes.

This tapestry has been worked on almost entirely while riding the bus.

It’ll be a hamsa, eventually.

Bag for a cousin, aunt of cousin scarf #1.

I’d never woven anything OTHER than a scarf, so I was kinda flying by the seat of my pants on this.

Another completed charity commission, this one a surprise gift for an old tumblr friend ;3

Experiment with making small squares and then weaving them together. MAJOR practice piece. May do more with this, may leave it as-is. Designs based on Paracas textiles.
