For this poll, textile crafts are including but not limited to knitting, sewing, embroidery, crochet, weaving, quilting, et cetera. I apologize if I have left out your favorite one, it is 4:30 AM. Please feel free to tell me about your favorite in the tags.
For this poll, "hobby" refers to a distinct activity in your own perception. A good rule for this is if you would consider it a distinct hobby in another person, it is its own, and if you would consider it only a part of another person's larger hobby, it would not be its own hobby.
I am running this poll because I am curious as to whether or not people consider textile artists to be widely versed in hobbies or narrowly versed in them. Please choose the answer closest to your beliefs, rather than the answer you think any demographic may wish to see. I am interested in the wider perception, and reblogging would be appreciated as I believe this poll will end up being shown mostly to those already fairly knowledgeable in textile arts due to the tags I will be using. Thank you.

Deepnest poem. I wanted to make one about this area for a while, but I could never find the ideas or motivation to do so. I like this place a lot, yet I also hate it. Love-hate relationship, the best kind. Thanks for reading ♥

BOTD: Village Weaver
Tumblr media
Photo: Peter Scholz
"A gregarious species of open habitats, especially weedy and agricultural areas; occurs in flocks of tens to hundreds. Note the red eyes, hefty bill, and relatively large size. Where introduced in the Caribbean, the bill shape and eye color separate breeding male weavers from oriole species. Constructs compact hanging woven nests, often in large colonies in or near towns."

Hi! Never done an ask like this before so idk exactly how it works, but I was curious about your Vex AU
Mind telling me about him/what he’s like/how he differs from canon Vex? I love me some AUs 🕺
(Well, It was simple really. When I first started playing Sackboy a Big Adventure Vex intrigued me since I love the villains. Each time I played and encountered him, it got my brain thinking. Why is he the way that he is? What happened in his past life that shaped him into how he is today? Thus my AU was born. My Vex is different because he has more emotions and powers than his canon counterpart. Yes, I know that Vex is sadistic in the games but I wanted to add more depth to him, to make him relatable to how a human would feel. Here's a little fact for you and a spoiler, Vex is part of the species called weavers, which thanks to their namesakes, can either summon dreams or nightmares, Vex being the nightmare variety. I hope this answers your question and thank you so much for the ask and the interest!)

"An average witch is born with a few natural gifts. But in each generation there is one woman who embodies countless gifts. Some say all of them. She is the Supreme."
I rewatched AHS: Coven last night and I just realized how Cordelia was describing Diana Bishop and Weavers in the All Souls Trilogy. Witches have their magical gifts but Weavers could do more because they see and interact with the threads of the universe. Diana's DNA showed she had the potential of all the gifts known to witchkind.

From A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness:
Miriam’s tiny, precise handwriting marched down the left side of the page, and the bars, some circled with red pen, marched down the right. “This is the genetic marker for precognition,” Matthew continued, pointing to the first circled smudge. His finger began slowly moving down the page. “This one is for flight. This helps witches find things that are lost.” 
Matthew kept reeling off powers and abilities one at a time until my head spun. 
“This one is for talking with the dead, this is transmogrification, this is telekinesis, this is spell casting, this one is charms, this one is curses. And you’ve got mind reading, telepathy, and empathy—they’re next to one another.” 
“This can’t be right.” I’d never heard of a witch with more than one or two powers. Matthew had already reached a dozen. 
“I think the findings are right, Diana. These powers may never manifest, but you’ve inherited the genetic predisposition for them.” He flipped the page. There were more red circles and more careful annotations by Miriam. “Here are the elemental markers. Earth is present in almost all witches, and some have either earth and air or earth and water. You’ve got all three, which we’ve never seen before. And you’ve also got fire. Fire is very, very rare.” Matthew pointed to the four smudges. 
“What are elemental markers?” My feet were feeling uncomfortably breezy, and my fingers were tingling. 
“Indications that you have the genetic predisposition to control one or more of the elements. They explain why you could raise a witchwind. Based on this, you could command witchfire and what’s called witchwater as well.” 
“What does earth do?” 
“Herbal magic, the power to affect growing things—the basics. Combined with spell casting, cursing, and charms—or any one of them, really—it means you have not only powerful magical abilities but an innate talent for witchcraft.”
Diana Bishop is the Supreme of ADOW/ALS.
