The "I'm still here!" posts usually happen after a lot more than one week of inactivity, don't they

I am working on a sewing project--I actually thought it was finished several days ago, but I didn't photograph it immediately, and that gave me time to not only acknowledge that I made some Bad Decisions on it, but it also gave me time to decide that it was worth fixing.  So, it's currently in the state of having had many stitches picked out, and only some of them re-sewn.  I'll get there.

Also!  In December, I finally started putting stuff into a print-on-demand shop, which is here: DollsAhoy Shop on FourthWall. So far it's mostly stickers with graphics related to doll customizing, creative positivity, Halloween, and food, but I do have the Unwise Sewing Adventures badge available as 3"/76mm stickers in a range of colors.

I do have at least one more sewing-specific design idea, and I'll probably have more, eventually.  However...the time I'm taking to work on the designs is definitely coming out of the time I would otherwise be sewing.  I am having fun working on the designs--I have loved working with vector graphics for literally decades, but have always had a problem coming up with ideas.  There's a little more motivation now.

FourthWall shops also allow you to sell things you physically possess, so I plan to add doll clothes I've made, eventually, and maybe also some things I've made for me but decided didn't really suit me--and because I photograph everything I make for this blog, that means I wouldn't even need to take new pictures of the stuff.

Another deterrent to sewing: plain ol' winter cold.  It's a lot easier to work on the computer while bundled up in a blanket than it is to work on the sewing machine while bundled up in a blanket.

Finally, there's been an occurrence in my life that I may never go into more detail about on this blog, but it's requiring adaptation that I am absolutely choosing over sewing right now.  Things will smooth out, I'm positive.

I'll probably still end up posting another year of a ridiculous amount of projects, but, if I don't? It's because I'm putting work into other things.  Some of which may be available as stickers.
