Beyond being buried in work + RSI lolsob, mostly I have been in Waiting For Fabric And Notions To Arrive from Mail Order Hell. XD

I hand-sew mended, very jankily, a leg that FELL OFF my poor kitsune plushie, but in fairness, while the pattern/design of the plushie is quite sound (I used to make small plushies), the hand-stitching is legitimately terrible and my stitches are (a) buried in long plushie fur (b) much more SECURE.

(My mother compulsively cricitized seam construction in every terribad Sears garment she ever bought, haha.)
