Daily Doodles- Day 21- 06/05/24

I don't really talk about being a Christian on here, because ever since reading the Bible in full for the first time ever, I realised that I knew nothing about the faith that I was born into.

I don't want to be out here saying wrong stuff that would lead people to the devil instead of God.

So I'm just gonna stay quiet, read the Bible again, get back into daily prayer and like/reblog cool Christian posts on my blog 💁‍♀️

And make art of course. I have so many cool Bible-themed art ideas!

Just to let you know, if you've replied to a post that I've made and the first few words look and sound like fighting words, I stop reading and proceed to pretend like you never posted.

I REFUSE at my big age to fight on the internet. If you disagree with whatever I posted, that's fine, but it's also not my problem.

I used to fight on the internet when I was younger and it made me a mean, nasty and bitter person (only online, thankfully, but that nastiness stayed in my thoughts)

I'm older now, A LOT wiser (experience wise) and have got no time for internet BS! I came here to post art, read fan fics and occasionally post opinions.

Despite the foolishness that happens around here, I still quite enjoy Tumblr and I'm not letting anything ruin that for me!

Hand Sewn Three- Tiered Maxi Skirt- Part 1

Here | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5

Heyo! I'm back with a new sewing project and this one will (hopefully) be a garment that I plan to wear often.

I'm handsewing it, again because I don't really know how to handle a modern sewing machine and because I want the satisfaction that completing this will bring me.

It's also an easy project to start off with!

I'm making one of these!

A three-tiered maxi skirt!

I've been wanting one for a while and decided to get some fabric and make one.

I looked up some tutorials on YouTube, figured out the math

and drew my final pattern onto brown paper.

I have a waist band, which is the length of my hips. It was going to be a wide band at first, but I bought thinner elastic because I had a brain fart. You'll see in a few that I had to significantly shrink the width.

For tiers 1 and 2, I chopped the measurements in half and for tier 3 which is suuuupppper long, I had to quarter the measurement to fit it on the paper.

I had juuuuuusssst enough fabric to get all my pieces:

-1 piece for the waist band

-2 pieces for tier 1

-2 pieces for tier 2

-4 pieces for tier 3

I'm 5"1' and on the smaller side overall. I got three yards of fabric. I suggest you double that if you're taller and/or wider.

This is how thin my waist band will now be. The elastic is about 3/4 inch. I originally made this waist band to be about 2 inches and I had to cut off the seam allowance from that. I still have a generous amount left just in case I may need to widen it (hopefully not!)

I accidentally started sewing this like a left-hander, so when the thread is done, I'll start on the other side so I can finish this faster 😆

Drew another guy and tried to get some variety in there. His hair is my favorite part!

do you think jezebel deserved to die like that? Thrown from a window and eaten by dogs?

The woman who for thirty years openly defied the living God that gave her, a worm from the dirt, life? The woman who tried to murder the righteous man who served as a mouthpiece so that God could speak to His people—she tried to get rid of that? The woman who not only murdered a righteous man who only wanted to obey God by preserving his family field for his sons, instead of giving it to her worthless spoiled fool of a husband—and she didn't just murder him, she did it the cruelest way possible; by having his name publicly slandered and dragged through the mud so his family would be shamed as well as land-less after his death? The woman who helped introduced Baal-worship to the Israelites—Baal, the fake god who is worshipped through self-harm and child sacrifice?

Yeah. I do.

But who in the world cares what I think, or what you think, Jezebel deserved?? Who are we?

The God who invented our brain matter and wrote history and epitomizes justice said she deserved to die that way.

In fact, He decreed it. 1 Kings 21:23 "And of Jezebel the Lord also said, ‘The dogs shall eat Jezebel within the walls of Jezreel.’"

So who are you, to be asking this question? Who am I, that my answer to the question would matter?

Daily Doodles- Day 198- 01/11/24

I wanted to try something different, so I went wild!

The stuff I bought at the first con!

These cute earrings and necklace! I quite like this seller (cherry picked.tt on Instagram) The frying pan earrings are my favorite!

It was my mum's birthday the day of the con and we saw these beautiful turtle earrings that are exactly her style.

There were a couple of stationery booths and I got the transparent sticky notes that I see all over the stationery community. I got these two colours because they were the most pastel and I like the pastels

At the next booth, I got this cute notebook that I use for work...

And these cool pens!

The first is one of those multicoloured pens. It has ten colours! I think the character on top is called Kuromi.

The seconds is a covid vaccine pen! 🤣 I despise that 'vaccine' but this pen is too cute! It's not just a pen though. On the other side has a sort of squiggly stamp and at the bottom of the vaccine part has a covid virus stamp! I found these things out while fooling around with it.

The third is just aesthetically cute. It's, minimalist, pastel pink and has this cute removable heart charm!

I bought some stuff at the other con and I'll post that once I transfer all the pics to my computer.

I think the weird thing about politics right now, especially online, is how dehumanizing people can be.

I have a buddy on one of the discords and I added him on X and wow, he has some very radical left wing views and would absolutely chew me out for my beliefs in a different context, but because we first talked about books and stories, we can see each other as people.

I think a lot of the people online who are incredibly rude to me would be decent humans to me if we met in person.

We just get in mob mentality and plugged into the rage porn from the media and forget that just because someone thinks different solutions would work, doesn't make them evil.

And I think the fact that most conservatives I know don't feel safe or comfortable speaking about their beliefs kinda keeps people from realizing that people they interact with all the time don't actually agree with them on political matters.

I could see some of these in the Danny Phantom universe 👻
