When strips match up in your project, you can do a happy dance.

My 1810s Regency outfits for my husband and I are coming along slowly but beautifully. I can't wait to dance the night away in these outfits someday. His coat is 90% done His pants (breeches) about 50% done. My stays are done and the dress is cut out. 🧵🪡 #historicalfashion

I used to laugh at the "I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread" Bilbo line, but boy do I get it now

My love bought me flowers for Valentine's Day. He said that he knew from my florist career that if he waited until the 14th, there would be nothing left. ❤️ He is my love and everything that is good in my life. I love you so much, Matthew.

Today is the 10th annual International Day of Women and Girls in Science! Women have been making great contributions to science forever, and imagine how much more they can do if barriers to participation are broken down.

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money, an EARNED benefit!

The "peace candidate" Trump wants to force 2 million Palestinians from their homes, give another $1 billion in weapons to Netanyahu, and enact a "plan" to turn the decimated Gaza strip into a billionaires' Riviera. If this is his "peace" policy, I'd hate to see his war policy.

I know you’re going to tell me that I’m an idiot but I really am surprised that my former friends who became Musk fans aren’t waking up to reality right now.

Over on the other site Elon Musk said that DOGE stopped $50M of condoms from being delivered to Gaza which Trump the repeated several times but it turns out that was the number for all contraceptive support from USAID everywhere on Earth, of which none went to Palestinians.

Do you wonder why you haven’t heard much about this massive TB outbreak recently? Cuz the CDC can’t hold any press conferences or issue public statements of any kind. abcnews.go.com/Health/kansa...

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

Trump blames other countries for sending us criminals, and then he pardons 1500 ACTUAL CRIMINALS.

For those saying it wasn't a Nazi salute. Keep posting it. Keep sharing it.

BREAKING -- Trump RAISES prescription drug costs. He just reversed all the cost caps that had been negotiated for anyone on Medicare or Medicaid -- over 120 MILLION Americans. He's pro Big Pharma -- and pro Big Insurance. He doesn't care about you. It was all LIES.

Trump originally called for a ban on TikTok. Now, he’s counting on people’s ignorance to claim he’ll be its savior. When people know the facts it’s less easy to manipulate them.

Today, we enter a new era. He is saying it is the golden age. Golden for him and all his rich followers.

Welcome to my bluesky. I have been testing the waters on here. I'm boycotting all meta this week and maybe longer. I built such a strong community on Facebook. I'm not sure if I'll leave it fully. My name is Rebecca. I love sewing. Since 2011, I've been learning and exploring historical fashion.

Joann Fabrics if you don't want to go out of business you should probably open the store when you say it will be opened. This is the second time I've come close to opening and you're not opened. There are five cars of customers waiting.

I went to a garb resale event. It is weird to buy an outfit instead of making one but the coat on this early 1800s dress was to die for. It is nice to have a Regency dress ready until I can make mine because Matts outfit will be done soon. Now we'll be ready to attend events.

Missing my Lulu today. I miss coming home and her being so excited to see me. You were the best and I hope you knew how much I loved you.

What do I want 2025 to be? I want to create all the garments that I've been wanting for many years. This one has been in my head for about two years now. I finished it last weekend. I'm hoping to get some pictures of it soon.
