For my birthday this year I finally made this dress wearable again!
I made this dress a couple years ago and accidentally made the elastics at the waist too tight (which made the dress very uncomfortable to wear). I sometimes really dread alterations and keep procrastinating on them for no real reason.
I only removed the elastics from the waist part and haven't added new (less tight) ones yet. The dress is already wearable as is, though I noticed another problem: I didn't have lots of fabric when I made this dress and the patchwork bodice is a bit shorter than usual for this pattern. So now this annoys me and I think about elongating the bodice somehow... sigh... would be a lot of work though!
[id]5 pictures in total.
Picture 1: a group selfie featuring three young white women (including OP). Two of them have brown hair and the third one brightly dyed red hair. OP is in the middle: a fat woman with glasses, wearing her brown hair open with two small decorative braids framing her face. She's wearing a green patchwork dress, mixed with cream coloured fabric with pink roses on it and white fabric with pink/violett hearts and green ornaments on it. The bodice is finished with cream-coloured lace bias binding. She's wearing a flower crown with green vines and white, pink & magenta coloured flowers on it (a birthday present from a friend from some years ago).
Her brown-haired friend is a bit chubby as well, with a short braid. She's wearing a cheerful yellow top with white daisies on it! She's wearing fancy brown macrame style earrings. Unfortunately her beautiful tree necklace made with buttons is not visible in the picture, you can only see the leather string of the necklace.
The third friend is thin and slender, but also sharing something with OP: she's also wearing glasses. She's wearing a pink bow in her red hair, as well as a pink "tattoo style" elastic necklace. She's wearing an off-white crochet shawl lent to her by OP over her white shirt.
The women are all smiling, it's clearly a happy day!
Picture 2: A close-up of the patchwork dress turned inside out. It shows the middle part, made of green gingham with the too-tight elastic still sewn into it.
Picture 3: A close-up of the bodice and waist-part of patchwork dress being worn with the too-tight elastic removed from the waist.
Picture 4:
An almost full body shot of OP: a young fat white woman with glasses and long brown hair. She's wearing most of her hair open and it falls in a wave over her shoulders. Two thin decorative braids frame her face and give her an elven look. One of the braids is tangled with the strap of her sand-coloured crocheted bag in this picture. The bag is decorated with a green bow with a floral pattern on it! She's wearing a flower crown with white, pink and magenta coloured flowers on it, they are made from wire and nailpolish (an old birthday present from a friend of hers). The star of the show is the patchwork dress: made out of green fabric with a gingham pattern (there are darker green patches and lighter green patches), green gingham patches with flowers printed on it, creme coloured patches with pinkish roses on them and green patches with pinkish roses on them. Mixed with it is a white fabric with violet coloured hearts and green ornamental swirls on it and a cream-coloured fabric covered with strips of lace. The lace fabric has also been turned into bias tape for the binding of the neckline and the arm holes of the dress. The dress is decorated with side gores made out of the white fabric with violet coloured hearts on it. The gores are decorated with a thick green lace. Yellow lacy sleeves of a shirt are visible under the bodice of the dress and a amber coloured bracelet can be seen on the left wrist. The woman is standing in front and among some lush greenery (trees and bushes), adding to the elfen look of her outfit.
Picture 5: A full body shot of the above described woman. She's standing on a path next to some hedges and trees. The picture is blurred - like you were trying to take a picture of some otherwordly fae perhaps...?[/id]

I was in the mood for a cheese pizza, a favorite of mine since I was a child. Being as there are no good pizza places close to me, I made my own. It came out great!! The dough was tender, light, and crispy, and the cheeses were ooey gooey. Perfecto mundo. It's so easy to make a pizza, and it only costs a couple of dollars to do it yourself. I love making pizza!!! I wish I had NY water so I could make pizza like they make there, but this is, definitely, the next best thing to NY pizza 🍕 😋😋😋😍

There's a post that's been hanging out in a ship tag I follow that has been getting under my skin for a day now. It was a post basically stating that "they would like a ship more if there was less (insert whatever) in the fandom." And, I was going to try and keep ignoring it, but it's just there, and I have to keep looking at it. So, y'all have to hear me complain about it.
So, here is my unbridled response:
If you aren't finding the fan content you like in a fandom or ship, then make it yourself.
I mean this with a degree of gentleness and a degree of harsh reality. Creators aren't here to bend to your whim because you don't like some of the things you see, or because you feel like there is too much of one thing in a fandom, or even if you feel like there isn't enough content that caters specifically to your identity or tastes or desires. If you're not finding what you want - make it yourself.
"But I can't draw/write/create!"
Bullshit. No one starts out perfect, expect that without a shadow of a doubt, but you are going to be creating something that you enjoy. You are creating something specifically for you. You are creating the content you want to see in a fandom. You are engaging in a way that is meaningful to you, and that is what is important. Skill will come with time and practice.
Don't be upset because your specific wants aren't being met in a fandom. Don't throw an entire group of creators under the bus because you aren't seeing what you want to see. Get around and do something about it so your wants are represented - by you.
Because, fan content isn't created for you, it's shared with you.

I have recently been converted to the coffee lover cult. In order to not break my wallet buying coffee everyday, I got the stuff to make it myself!
And I mean I got the least fancy coffee stuff I could get: the biggest containers of instant coffee and hot cocoa mix I could find at Sam's club.
I don't even have creamer, just milk and sugar. And sometimes not even milk. However, the iced coffee I made for myself this morning was absolutely delicious.
I love being able to control the ingredient amounts so its the right level of caffinated and sweet.
My PSA for today: you don't need anything fancy to make good coffee. You don't need to shovel money to coffee shops like Starbucks to get your fix. Sometimes the simple and cheap option does work.

Sunday pasta and Monday Ssooouuup.
The soup was all made from organic and fresh ingredients. The HERBS I have are all from a garden. Nothing better then fresh.
Coconut milk is base, BACON , and potatoes.
SO YUMMY. I’ll add in the details on what’s in all this later.

I am stressed and tired and working too much so I just spent two hours on a sundress.
Hopefully I’ll finish it this weekend.
