Truly A New Beginning!

Each year I plan so much but much is left unfinished,

but,

this year will be different

I am finally in Homer! After years of planning I finally made it!

This pic is from this blog

I met with a small business planner to help get it rolling and the "problem" moving forward is my lack of cash... yeah, that is why I go after loans to do it! He said I will need to either get a job to show income or sell my sci fi trilogy called "Starfleet Alyeska".

Right now for shiggles I did a kickstarter because I miss my fiber art studio and it will be months before I can buy a house and get my stuff out of storage in Anchorage! It needs to reach the full funding amount since it is "all or nothing" and I have one backer so far. I hope more people become interested but I can totally understand my not having current pics to show! Also, it is not urgent as I have the supplies but in storage. I just do not want to wait around 6 months to be able to handcard wool, use my drum carder or blending board to create rolags or batts, spin yarn or weave yarn or most important of all: nuno felt yarn!

Many of you know i broke my hip at the beginning of 2025 and that changed a lot of things for me. It made me want to truly work on my mobility and strength this coming year! Not where i do it once a month but try to do it consistently. so that is a main goal for this year for me! my inspo is this girl:

And I plan to take her course sometime

. So things are looking so good poised at the start of a New Year! I feel this is the year! Course I feel that at the start of each year but this year I am in Homer and going to make it happen! hehe

so if you would like to help out a bit, my kickstarter is up for a bit. It is not urgent, just me being impatient to create Art!

Kickstarter sharks

wow, I had not tried kickstarter for ages and decided to give it a go since I would like to create between now and when I get a house and can bring all my fiber art studio and unpack it all!

but right away after I lauched it I got a $10 backer and he messaged saying he has lots of friends and we can email about it all... I said thanks for the support and if he knows anyone wanting an original work of wearable art definitely tell them about my campaign... he wrote back he likes my project and displayed lots of insterest and all of that then mentioned all his friends prefer talking through emails.. so I let it go uncommented figuring "yeah, scam alert" and he withdrew his $10! So beware, what was it one K-Drama said "does meatpie fall from the sky?" when something seems too good... I bought a crochet hook and yarn to keep me busy and creative! I am currently making a pullover sweater for my daughter. the first one I started the cats kept eating the yarna and I realized I had like a dozen joins and thought over time it would loosen too much so began a new one... So I have something to keep my hands happy between now... .

Kickstarter . I have old samples of my work from ages ago, I have not filmed or photographed much lately, I have plans to revive it very soon!! . . .

. I do have what i need for a fiber art studio, I just want to do some creative work now through these 6 months of so before I can move into a house! It would be great to get either some raw fleece and hand carder or a drum carder and materials, that much is true though... it is not urgent and many things happening around the world are urgent, that I understand... it would be nice to felt and spin too! It is not urgent but it would truly make my heart sing! #fiberista #fiberArtist #handmadewithLove #DIY #fiberArtStudio

I miss my fiber art studio!

Wow, so I am finally in Homer but most of my life is in storage in Anchorage until I can buy a house in 6 months time! I do not want to wait that long to work with my hands so decided to try a small kickstarter to get some tools and materials! I loe working with my hands and miss the feel of wool between my fingers. I hope to raise about $25,000 but asked for only $2,500 as that is more realistic and more likely to be reached! I hope other fiber artists have a little left over after the holiday season to help a fellow fiber artist! . Kickstarter #fiberarts #fiberista #handmadewithLove #wool #handcarding

Finally in Homer!

 

crochet is fun but I want more...

 

the good news is I am finally in Homer, the bad news is all of my stuff is packed in storage until we buy a house in about 5 months!

 

I decided to try a small fund raiser to get some fiber art tools while I am waiting... I do have crochet hooks and yarn but I do so much more then just crochet!  

 

I miss hand carding wool 

 

I miss blending on a blending board or drum carder to create fascinating color combos and turn it into rolags to spin or batts for nuno felting

 

I miss sewing

 

I miss spinning wool into yarn

 

I miss nuno felting outfits and purses 

 

It is not urgent, nor will help us save the world, but it will help save my sanity  :p

What I love about the Internet is helping and caring for people we will never meet...

 It was a friend of a friend who asked for my help setting up a gofundme for his hometown's school.  He was born there when it was still Yugoslavia and it is now Macedonia.  There were many children back then but now it is only 9 because the school has fallen into disrepair.

 

So, I will never go to this village,

I will never meet these wonderful and curious children

but I can help show we care from around the world 

by posting this Gofundme around.

 

so if you have money to spare it will really help but if money is tight because of the holiday season, you can still share it around!

Pretending to "empathize" yet..

So what do you do when you are an indigenous person and they hide you???

 

 

 

 

 

 

I commented and eagerly waited to hear responses about it.  Except none came...  so I checked and I am hidden...  but here is my proof I posted...

 

 

It is a shame they treat indigenous away, but they truly just do not want to give up all the land and natural resources so create ways to make the indigenous seem to be the haters and evil ones...

 

 

 In case the video gets blocked here is a pic of her page so you can find it yourself:

 

 

 

here is what I said:

First thing I would try to remember is the indigenous ARE living a genocide, as you read this... 

 

You can pretend you are not a part of it, but you are here on indigenous lands without their permission and you ARE benefiting off of their suffering. That is fact, so no matter how kind you think you are, you are still a genocidal war profiteer at best, do you understand that? 

 

This is not me hating on you, but you hating us, can you understand that? You may be kind and say you empathize yet.. we are STILL living a genocide, this whole half of the world is and you pretend you can not see it... 

 

 Next, how long have europeans been living illegally on these lands? Why do you expect us to be "polite about it?????? More come all the time as well, and invite other Peoples to come as well, to benefit off of the genocide. 

 

Truly, enough is enough already?? There is absolutely on justification for living on these lands, none!! 

 

You showing genocidal war criminal "laws" to use against the #indigenous is, how do I say this politely? very rude! and remember, I like your channel and think you do great videos! that does not mean you are not ALSO a genocidal war criminal... 

 

You want to support the family, truly?? then say nonstop:

 

 "the ongoing indigenous genocide of this whole half of the world must end!" 

 and take action to bring it about... but do not decide for yourself what the best action to do would be, consult the indigenous and if the answer is "move back to your own Home first", do it!!

 

 I am disappointed you made this video and call those living and suffering a genocide "racist"... how dare you, truly!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 As you can see, I was not hating on her, just telling it like it is.  Genocide is wrong, period.  How many trillions of dollars do they steal a year not to mention the vastness of half a world...

 When you hide people because they do not support your racist slander of a People's living a genocide, it is not us who are being racist.. 

 

 

Remember they spend decades building trust to learn #indigenous knowledge then exploit Nature brutally once they learn it... 

You can hide me from your viewers but you will never hide me!!

 They are dedicated to helping the "displaced" peoples of the Near Islands, the Saskinax̂ Peoples of what is currently called the alaska maritime wildlife refuge.  

Exciting news, I heard they found the place they plan to move to but are short a bit of cash and need some money to make it happen so this fundraiser on gofundme will help!!

thanks so much, for the price of a week of coffee you can help save a tribe that has not lived as a tribe in over 80+ years!!  It matters so much!

 

 

I have been slacking on this blog! sorry!

 I am just so busy doing real life stuff that I forget to come here to let everyone know what is up  ;p

I will hopefully write more later on...  I am half tempted to start doing affiliate link ones though  :p  but dont like commercializing what is just my chit chat with you all...

hugs to all who need them

Crochet

 I have begun to crochet again, most of our stuff is packed away since we plan to move very soon, but I have been working on some projects.

I havent got pics yet, but will upload them once I do!  been working on a cardigan and trying to get it done quickly!

arm warmers

I crocheted a cute blue/grey striped arm warmers that go up past the elbow for one daughter who gets cold working at her desk and wanted some crochet ones (she has felted ones already  :p  )

beach cover

this was more practicing different stitches then being a beach cover  :p  but I plan to use it in a film where she is wearing it and looking at herself in the mirror and whoever comes up and asks what she is doing, they need to go.  She says she loves it but needs a new one so will stop and get more yarn on the way home...just to throw it into a film  :p

cardigan

I am making a cute cardigan for another daughter who lost one of her sweaters (may have gotten thrown into the donate box or packed away by mistake).  It is more colorful then I intended as I had planned it all the main color but then thought "why not" and threw in 1 stripe then a grey one then another  :p

hooded vest

the last one I am making is a sleeveless cardigan but has a hoodie, that is next.

I got some exciting crochet kits from a lady who does such gorgeous work!  I am applying for another individual artist award for crochet and hope I get it.  It will be so incredible to be able to afford the yarn to make the costumes for the films!  

I hope everyone is working toward their dreams, even if it seems like super slo mo and baby steps!!  Never give up!
