@debbie @MakersHour@cupoftea.social @makershour@a.gup.pe Totally agree with this aim. My resolution for the year was to finish at least one existing project for every new one I start this year. So far life has conspired to stall most efforts this year, but I hope things pick up for the second half of 2025. #MakersHour
@makershour Totally not my fault you didn't say "making dream project"! Seriously, I stand to lose thousands annually from these reforms because apparently needing help to wash and cook isn't disabling enough, and being an ambulatory wheelchair user isn't either. The current system actually accepts that all these things accumulate and make things more disabling than if they existed in isolation, but the new reforms do not.
If you're a UK #makersHour type, please, email your MP and say you know people who will lose almost all the money they receive. It's true. It's me.

@MakersHour@cupoftea.social @makershour@a.gup.pe Q5: What is your current dream project for 2025/26?
#MakersHour
Am I allowed to be boring and say making a veneered miniature sideboard? I’m a bit of a one tune piper, I’m afraid.

@hollie @MakersHour oh I get you, and I hear you. (Also an ADHD thing here, as I read it as the #MakersHour community but the question doesn’t say that!) Yup I have tried a few different knit and natter type groups and they quickly feel a bit of an insider/outsider thing to me - but then I have a ton of social anxiety

@MakersHour@cupoftea.social @makershour@a.gup.pe Q3: Some folks have one method for being creative, other's have many. What techniques or making methods would you like to ‘mashup’ into one project?
#MakersHour
Well at the moment I’m combining woodworking, mirror cutting and glass cutting to make my sideboard. And my formerly tidy (for me) craft room is looking like this

@hollie @MakersHour Is this an in-person experience more than an online one? Or are you talking about the hear and now? I don’t know that I bring it into my making very often, but I am not sure this community at #MakersHour would be ‘conservative’? 
if we appear so, we do need to do more about it … what would you think?
Q2: It has been suggested that the making community is not as inclusive as it could be. Why do you think that is? How can it be more inclusive?

Hello everyone!

I have almost finish my jumper that have have been knitting on and off for the last year
@MakersHour@cupoftea.social @makershour@a.gup.pe Q1: Hello Everyone! I am on holiday at the moment and away from my workspace. Are you still actively creating or making when away from home/work/your usual creative environment?
#MakersHour Yes! I usually pack some sort of craft to go when I travel, knitting or hand sewing work well.
@MakersHour@cupoftea.social @makershour@a.gup.pe I'm never away! But I've made nothing except printing a case I'd previously designed for my blue badge.
It's so hot I'm struggling to move around, never mind do anything. #makersHour
