Whenever things get really bad I watch The Birdcage.
A little warning to anyone only perceiving in three dimensions, this mashup is a bit of a doozy

I think this one's my favourite
Ke Huy Quan got best supporting actor!
As a teenager, after his huge successes with The Goonies and Indana Jones, Ke Huy Quan was forced to stop acting because non-stereotypical roles for Asian men simply didn’t exist. What a massive waste of talent. So happy for him to finally be getting the quality roles and attention he deserves.
So far no one at a fabric store has asked what I'm quilting so I haven't had the chance to whip out my phone & be like well u see. this.
Okay SO this is a longer answer than you asked for but let me regale u with
The Story Of Hubris Quilting
- It is two months ago
- I am so fucking cursed and trying desperately to find crafts I can actually do while lying in bed with no brain and a -4 penalty to my dex mod
- I am also just sort of rewatching Mob Psycho 100 on loop bc I am in love with it and it gives me Content without needing to expend much brain power
- Important background information on me, Scribe: When I love a piece of media very much I feel a deep and abiding need to create some sort of wearable talisman about it.
- Anyway, I am rewatching Season One for like the third time when I notice this shot in the opening:
- Haha, I think, that looks kind of like appliqué!
- My brain, which is actively dying for want of a craft project, goes Oh?? Appliqué you say???
- Oh man, I think, I bet I could sew that! And maybe some, like, objects from especially significant scenes! I could do it as the design on the back of a quilted vest; that would make a fun talisman!
- (Had I stopped here it would have been a large but reasonable project. However, I am filled with hubris even when I also have the physical stamina of a cup of jello and the brain power of a particularly dim slug)
- It's a shame there's probably no way I can quilt his aura, I think.
- (This is a stupid thing to think because going "this is probably impossible" about a craft project is a surefire way to summon The Hubris)
- No really, I think. There's no way I can quilt Mob's aura.
- [Various McElroy voices] Unless . . .
- . . .
- I stare at psychic aura screencaps for many days.
- I come to several emotional character revelations. I also come to the conclusion that what I want to do is, technically, possible.
- To start, I'll use English Paper Piecing to sew together a bunch of tiny triangles into eight-part rosettes to recreate the 'spinning disc' effect of the aura
- Then once I have enough of those, I'll remove the basting and the paper pieces, press them, and re-baste them to clamshells (making sure they're all in exactly the same orientation)
- And THEN I'll appliqué all those clamshells together into rows to make a solid piece of fabric
(These are just laid out, not sewn down yet)
- And then I'll tilt that fabric at like a 20-30 degree angle and finally I will have successfully quilted Kageyama Shigeo's psychic aura!
- And that will be the background of my vest :)
- After that, I'm going to teach myself needle-turn applique to decorate it with significant objects from every scene that's made me cry! (there are . . . many of them)
Anyway. This is the plan I came up with 864 tiny triangles ago and it's going great so far!
