🚨THIS IS NOT A DRILL🚨

Those wonderful people at the HWA have shortlisted The Wicked of the Earth by the brilliant A.D. Bergin for the 2025 Debut Crown 🍾

A massive achievement for a book the deals with some extremely difficult and often overlooked British history. Congratulations, Andrew!

I hate to talk about Christmas so early, but just a bit of a nudge to say that if you're looking to make a small cross stitched gift for your bestie, you might want to buy the pattern now and get started. Future you will thank you! 😄 🎅

Available on Etsy and Ko-fi (where it's cheaper...shhh😉)
I can't believe it's not...foamex

Knitters, you can whip out a simple frog hat in time for Saturday’s march. All you need is some green and black worsted weight yarn, some stiff white paper card stock, and a couple black buttons.

The Witch of the Woods is available to purchase from Cactus Gallery, Los Angeles.
She is a gentle soul, handmade, designed to look wonderfully weird and perfectly imperfect 🖤

Still listening to Medea by Rosie Hewlett - I like it, but it's starting to feel very long and I'm only about halfway through 😄I'm reading The Rabbit Hutch by Tess Gunty which I'm enjoying so far

SHOCKING: England just had its second worst harvest on record.

Farmers are paying the price of the climate crisis while fossil fuel giants keep cashing in.

Someone should tell Big Oil: you can’t eat money!
For all you mums who are just done doing *all* the things!

Also available as a downloadable pdf cross stitch pattern

I'm just wondering, for all those people who have been signing up for the #GreenParty in the UK in recent weeks, what's been your experience once you've signed up? Has your local party got in touch? Have you been able to find out about what your local party is up to and who the key contacts are?
