Still a weirdo, after all these years. Eastbourne, UK. Pop fandom, telly, fashion history, textiles, colour, collage... oh, and chronic illness. #MECFS https:// www.instagram.com/busstopgirl No TERFS. ๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐๐ค๐๐ค๐ค

It's a dress for Doctor Who's assistant in an ep where they travel back to Swinging London. #SewingBee
Patrick's looking deliciously tanned. #SewingBee
Oh I liked Orla's tartan top, what a shame she got marked down for not finishing. #SewingBee
I think Glendora is this year's 'conventional but technically excellent' contestant. #SewingBee
Yes! I want a closer look at the details. I expect its by one of her students. #SewingBee
Me too!
I would LOVE to go for an Irish coffee with Esme. #SewingBee
I can't think of any body shape it would flatter!
This blouse looks like 1980s maternity wear. #SewingBee
I think I'd find gathering 2m of fabric far too suspenseful (is that a word?). The thread can snap at any time! #SewingBee
He was just covering Sara's maternity leave ๐ผ
Very impressed by Orla's high kick. #SewingBee

Here's a lovely photo of a plethora of hand-sewn fabric art creatures. There's a watermelon creature with a red face, eight black seed-like eyes, and a wide mouth with five sharp teeth. There's a white ghost trinket bag covered with purple embroidered flowers. She has a gray face, sparkly black eyes and a little frown. There's a strawberry creature with three bulbous green eyes. There's a watermelon ghost, a strawberry ghost bag, and a black creature with sharp teeth. There's a white egg with yellow embroidered flowers and purple eyeshadow and purple lips. All the creatures are sitting on green fur and there's a galaxy print fabric in the background. The watermelon creature and the watermelon ghost are sitting on metal doll chairs.
I'd love to sell one creature today. All my little guys are designed, hand-sewn and hand-embroidered by me. Each takes many hours to make.
If you're interested in my fabric art, I'd love for you to check out my new Big Cartel shop.

My student loans have been cancelled! Since graduating, I have never earned enough to trigger repayments, and after 30yrs they have given up on me.
The education I got with the Wachowskis for 10 years of making "Matrix" movies was that everything matters. They would watch the fashion channel every day at lunch. I caught them watching it one time and asked what they were doing, and Lana was like, "Look at the dress, look at how her hips move, it changes posture," and I never forgot that lesson. You never truly bring the characters to life until they are in the wardrobe. Keanu putting on the suit for the first time in the movie, he's becoming John Wick.
Love this on fashion and sci-fi - what the director of John Wick learned working as a stunt person for 10 years on the Matrix movies www.businessinsider.com/john-wick-ke...
For particularly the younger trans and non-binary individuals out there, but everyone though more generally, I can't tell you things will be okay. I can say that there is so much support for you, so much love. That's what drives change. Just look at this and not the bigots today ๐ 1/
I found this a helpful, enabling and - yes - depressing primer on the UK Supreme Court judgement. Maybe you will too:

A light blue diagram depicting the sea, with the water's surface at the top, and just below it is an outline of the Mary Rose, with the depth (12m, 40ft or 6.7 fathoms). There is a line showing the seabed, which takes a rapid dive into the vertical...
On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked,
"If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?"
