What’s Happening in October 2025?
Family
I’m gearing up for Halloween, inspired by a DIY costume I found on Carbon Costume. It was mostly an excuse to add a bomber jacket to my wardrobe and I’ve accessorized with vintage Snoopy earrings to make it abundantly clear Who I’m Supposed to Be.
Home
I attended the Pacific Northwest Stitch Summit in September 2025 (Table 21!) and had an amazing time. Finally finished FlossyFoxShop’s Night of the Frost Dragon after more than a year and am delighted to send it to its home.
Work
I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to teach and to work with students in credit-bearing courses and extracurricularly. Teaching has been a bright spot during a very difficult year at the University and the Libraries.
Culture
In honor of spooky season, I’m listening to Jaime Loftus’ Ghost Church, a history and mystery of American spiritualism. I’m several episodes in to House of Guinness. Its anachronistic soundtrack keeps me from taking it too seriously, but it’s terribly entertaining. Really looking forward to Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein! I never get tired of adaptations of my favorite story. 😍
