I'm still getting my head around this Mastodon thing, (my last post was 2 years ago)...my millennial brain seems to only compute with Instagram and Facebook marketplace at best - but I'm keen to share my work here as it seems like a welcoming space.

I make things - mostly freehand machine embroidery pieces. I'm fascinated by lichen-like forms - nature's ability to hold and transform is humbling in these current times.

In February 2024, I was in a car crash. My nerves from my spine to my hand were damaged.

#OpenSource and #Embroidery helped me imagine a more resilient future:

I wanted to give back to the #FreeSoftware community, and the Conservancy staff and contractors who supported me. So I made an embroidery of Conservancy's logo for our fundraiser.

The top donor to Conservancy's fundraiser (from Monday, Jan 6 until AOE Wednesday, Jan 8) will receive my embroidery.

Please donate today:

sfconservancy.org/sustainer/

If you can only afford to give a little, we appreciate any support you can give!

If the top donor doesn't want the embroidery, a random donor to Conservancy's fundraiser will receive the embroidery. The random donor will be picked from anyone who donated from the start of Conservancy's fundraiser in November until AOE Wednesday, January 8.

If my journey inspires you, please donate to Conservancy's fundraiser:

A work-in-progress embroidery, featuring a stylized tree similar to Software Freedom Conservancy's logo. Over the tree canopy are the words "Grow Software Freedom." Below the roots are the words, "2025 Sustainer."

Embroidery and resilient software freedom in 2025

I spent most of 2024 recovering from a spine injury after a car accident. Iโ€™d love to share my new insight into free software accessibility, and how both free software and embroidery helped me build resiliency.

So.. @juliette is going through some of her grandmothers old (1980s / 1990s) xmas themed sewing & embroidery magazines and, frankly, what the fuck:

Here's a start. Some patterns that are surely candles.. right? Unrelated: a magazine named "Christmas Quickies"

As described in the post. The magazine on the left. And on the right the two patterns with red candles (horizontal) in a setting of green bushy stuff

Really happy with how my latest embroidery project turned out. I used a pattern from a magazine (credit to www.lucyfreeman.co.uk) Learned some new techniques, my favourite being sewing with multiple different colour threads on the same needle to blend colours together!
