#deltarune seam

Update on me.

I have recovered Considerably but I’m still not out of the tunnel yet. I have more energy, my mood is better, and I’ve been able to keep all my food and drinks down.

I’m at a place where I can work on crochet things again, though my Etsy shop is currently on vacation and when I reopen it I will be running it differently in that I will only be selling completed items rather than made to order items. This will most likely be temporary though. I am preparing for an event in mid June where I’ll be putting my crochet things in an art show and letting people buy them if they want them and I need to be able to work at my own pace as I have a list of about 15-18 things I want to make for it. After the event, I might start doing made to order items again.

I’m hoping that soon I’ll be able to get back on making positivity posts for y'all. Thank you to everyone who has supported me during this trying time.

Here’s my latest creation!

I just finished this doll of Seam :3

Sound on! They squeak! (using they/them because in the Deltarune stream for the 6th anniversary of Undertale Toby said “they are a good character” when the dads playing the game met Seam)

They’re bigger than my usual amogus so I used a bigger squeaker that I just happened to have after my doggo Zoe murdered one of her toys.

I used like 5 different crochet hooks to make them. 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.75mm, 3.5mm, and 9mm.

And yes, the hearts under their feet were necessary.

Debating whether to sell This One. I might keep them for reference purposes but I’ll definitely make more to sell in the future.

I spent hours on this project and worked my hands to the bone but i’m very proud of my work here ❤️❤️❤️

Text reads: Compulsive skin picking can make you feel awful about your appearance and make you feel like you’ve lost control of yourself. It might seem hopeless, like you’ll spend the rest of your life tearing up your skin, and you may not be able to believe people when they tell you that you’re still beautiful, but I want you to know that you are not a failure for not being able to control it, and no matter how you’ve damaged your skin, you still deserve to be treated with kindness and respect.

This is something I needed. I’ve suffered from excoriation disorder(also known as dermatillomania) since I was a child. I got made fun of a lot for all the scabs on my face and every inch of my body I could reach, and my mother(truly a nasty piece of work if I’m being honest) used to tell me to wear makeup because it was embarrassing to be seen with me with my skin looking like that.

For the last week I’ve been so stressed from my ongoing migraine that I’ve been picking more than usual and my face looks like a train wreck. I’ve covered most of the right side of my face with liquid bandage to help it heal without getting infected. I look terrible.

I know there are resources out there to help one stop picking, such as a site called Stop Picking On Me that one of my first therapists told me about, but I either keep forgetting to look at it or I just don’t have the spoons.
