My four year old cat has JUST discovered chasing her tail. Such fun. In the middle of the night. On my bed.

I thought I knew everything there was to know about the female reproductive organs, given I’ve possessed a set for 45 years, but I have JUST learned that the fallopian tubes are NOT physically attached to the ovaries. But that’s not the big news! (1/2)

When you buy stuff from a small business on #Etsy, the shop owner smiles. Does a little dance. Announces the sale to everyone in the room. Calls their Mum. It’s the best 😊

In the process of switching from an iPad Pro to a Windows laptop 2 in 1. Part of me HATES that I’m doing this but all the good cross stitch software is on Windows 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Just changed my Etsy shop name to Lynette It Be Stitched but now I’m having doubts. Lynette It Be. Is the pun too much? 😂🪡 It could have been worse. I could have gone with Lynette It Be Sew 😮😮😮 #crossstitch #Etsy

I added this to the images on my latest Etsy listing. What do you think? Is it useful? I know I can put this stuff in the text but who reads that 😂 🪡 #crossstitch #crossstitchpatterns #crossstitchdesigner #etsy

Recently I missed a couple of weeks of posting my photos here due to really bad mental health but I hope to make up for that. I design my photos using recent research into the shift in brain activity from fight/flight to rest &relaxation triggered by looking at plants/at something we find beautiful.

Had to delete Octopath Traveler for being too addictive. Great game but 40 hours in a week is detrimental to my mental health. Time to step away 🙈😛 #gaming #nintendoswitch

I made some digital collages from vintage illustrations and forgot about them. Just found one and decided to see what it would look like as xstitch. Can’t believe how blimmin’ good it looks. It’s also MASSIVE so if I ever finish the design who knows if anyone would be brave enough to take it on 😂

Why is Octopath Traveler so good and why can’t I stick to a single game? 😂

All these posts about The Witcher 4 I’d seriously better get on with 3 but I keep being tempted by Palia 😮

The answer to, “Can I dunk my mince pie in my cup of tea?” is, “Yes!” For science.

Well pleased with this design. I actually want to stitch it myself! Usually I’m sick of the sight of it by this point 😂

But of a steep learning curve but enjoying Palia on the Switch so much. Can’t wait for the Switch 2 version 👀

In a very big departure for me I’ve started making cross stitch patterns. After a lot of trial and error, here’s a mockup of my first finished design. What do you think? I’d love feedback from #crossstitch peeps 🪡

It turns out the people who make the tumblers and the people who make stanley knives are not the same people and I can’t explain why this is disappointing news

What a lovely game Wylde Flowers is on the Switch. A cosy farming game with a witchy twist. Love that the dialogue is all voiced. Completely charming ✨

My mum passed away five years ago and I’m finally getting round to sorting out all of her old devices. Six tablets, four phones, two games consoles, three hard drives and numerous memory sticks, several laptops… Not bad for a 75-year-old!

Just had a moment when I saw a gelli plate described as a gelatin plate 😮 It’s ok, it’s synthetic! Vegan art is an absolute minefield 🌱🎨

I’ve just ditched Goodreads for StoryGraph thanks to Bluesky’s enthusiasm. Would love some friends! I’m @bluenettle and I enjoy mysteries, thrillers and literary stuff, but open to anything 📚
