Fannish 50 #10: crafting
Mar. 25th, 2023 08:29 amMy first intro into fanworks was writing fanfic, followed in a few years by vidding. But sewing, embroidery, and other fibre-based crafts have been with me my entire life. In the past 10 years I've embroidered several fannish things, including spacemen and daleks.
I once spent a summer knitting a 10-foot long Fourth Doctor scarf.
But lately I've been wanting to try something different, pyrography or woodburning. The ultimate project would be a map of Middle Earth on a wooden plaque, but I'll tackle a few smaller things just to be a feel for the craft first.
