The longer you’re in Star Wars fandom, the more you learn about The Deep Lore, the more you understand the complicated narrative intentions behind each scene, the more you reach the ultimate end goal of truly Understanding Star Wars, the more you realize: “Honestly, it’s not that deep, just enjoy it or don’t.”

gffa

This isn’t even a slight against Star Wars, it’s not saying “ha ha Star Wars is dumb and never had a Thought in its life”!  Star Wars has had many, many thoughts, some of them terrible, some of them actually pretty great.  It’s just that, by the nature of the structure of how the story was told, which parts are the foundations everything else is built on, the way George Lucas cared about certain things more than others, and just the sheer Passage Of Time Until You Realize What’s Important To You, Random User On The Internet, is that ultimately it’s just a story and fandom whips itself into a frenzy over fandom just as often as it does about the space dramatics, and you don’t have to dance with fandom on that. You can keep doing your twirly-whirly spins on your own in the corner instead, it’s not life or death, enjoy something in the story or don’t, I’m not your mom.

the front panels of a button up shirt cut out of embroidered floral tulle and overlapped such that the embroidery pattern is continuousALT
the halves no longer overlapped so that the individual button bands are visibleALT
the back of a button band; the front is a pale pink that shows through the tulle, but the back is multicolored small floral printALT

due to factors such as "time pressure" and "tulle is of the devil" my expectations for this shirt are not high. but i spent a lot of time imagining these button bands and they turned out pretty nice

sleepnoises

The back piece of a shirt made from floral tulle. The yoke (fitted part around neck and shoulders) has five panels, the seams of which are very visible because the tulle is layered multiple times.ALT
A collar, not attached to a shirt. It has cut out bits of the tulle with embroidered leaves on them stuck to it.ALT
Close photo of the collar, fake-attached to a shirt on a person, held on with a pinch to the front. The person is also wearing a green blazer.ALT

progress on this includes:

  • attached the back and the yoke; did the yoke with wonky little panels for reinforcement(?), as it's not double-layered, and for a fun symmetrical piecing moment
  • attached fronts to back at shoulders (not pictured)
  • constructed a collar and collar stand and arranged Leafs upon it
  • started hand stitching down leafs. it would be more elegant to do this before assembling the collar, but i can't visualize how both the seam allowances and the crease in the collar work + the tulle is itchy if misplaced

have yet to do sleeves, side seams, finishing hand stitching on collar, attaching collar, sleeve plackets (on tulle??), cuffs, Buttonholes (evil to me)

Tulle shirt with floral embroidery hanging backlit in a windowALT

Shirt's done except for finishing the collar handstitching & touching up some of the buttonholes (used a friend's fancy machine with varying success). Lots of things wrong with it that are hard to see from more than three feet away

No pictures of it on me because I have yet to obtain a suitable layering piece which is a really funny problem to have!

Finished the collar! If you want to make embroidery you cut out of some tulle look like it is On There For Real this is what I did

  • roughly cut out and place embroidery. baste with glue stick (glue sticks to the back of the embroidery and not the tulle)
  • tack it down with a color matched running stitch (or whatever) along the stems and centers
  • cut off more tulle from the edges with tinier scissors
  • tack down the edges. with, in this case, a different thread color, do a faux chain stitch where you grab the very end of a stitch from the extant embroidery
  • like so
needle poking up through fabric a little beyond one of the stitches on the tulleALT
needle poked through the end of a stitch on the tulleALT
needle returning to the hole it came out ofALT
finished stitchALT

this has the benefit of kind of squashing down any tulle that didn't get trimmed

Shirt collar with embroidered fern-like leaves stitched to itALT

and now it moves with the fabric and doesn't stick up at the edges!

life actually gets better when you leave the house consistently btw like im serious

if you don't know where to go, just wander! go to the store and don't buy anything, go to the library just to sit and do whatever you were going to do at home, go to a park and just walk around/sit outside for a bit (weather permitting, of course)

just put some headphones in and walk around the block a couple times if you really have nothing else to do, just getting a bit of air and change of scenery is so good for you

when i was a teenager it felt very revolutionary to be cruel to myself. like some kind of slow passive protest against how much everything hurt. i starved myself of sleep and food and tenderness because it felt right. it felt sharp and angry and radical and i wanted to be those things. adulthood is the realisation that the world is already working to cut into you well before you learn how to do it yourself. caring for yourself and others is the real protest

Cody: *Sitting down with a sigh in the medical bay* I think I pulled a muscle.

Helix: Remember my rule about not waiting a full day to bring in sex related injuries? We had a whole ship-wide meeting about it. *pulling out hypos and helping Cody get on his stomach*

Cody: Sex related???

Helix: Yeah? You stayed the night with General Kenobi last night? I assume that’s where it happened?

Cody: Where, yes, how, no. I was reaching for a data pad that Obi-Wan was trying to hold out of my reach so I would go to bed.

Helix: …you guys were doing flimsiwork?

Cody: You guys think we have sex? The naked touching? Ew.

Helix: …are you leading him on? Clearly holding a data pad out of your reach was an excuse for flirting and getting busy.

Cody: His fangs imbedded in my shoulder said otherwise tbh

Helix: heifheodbre WHAT LET ME DISINFECT THAT WTF

Cody: lol
