Pairing: Harry/Mitch Rowland Rating: T Word Count: 3950 Summary: “What is that?”

“This?” Harry pointed his fork at the plate. “It’s poutine.”

The man gazed longingly at the heaped plate. “Looks good.”

“Go ahead and take one, bitch.”

All I've Ever Known

The disruption was small, but mighty. It came hitched to the back of a black Dodge Ram pickup truck one sunny spring afternoon. With its shiny gray metal siding and sparkling windows, it stood out like a sore thumb. It was a Tiny House.

The brand new tiny house was delivered to the empty lot at 28 Longbourn Lane, drawing a small crowd around the mailboxes. Gossip was a hot commodity in Princess Park and it had been ages since the neighbors had seen something so novel. Harry Styles could not avoid noticing the commotion, as he lived next door.

“Say Harry, I bet you'll know.” Mrs. Hurst turned to Harry, fishing for the inside scoop. At her side, a fluffy white Pomeranian popped its head out of her pink canvas tote and barked. Snookums looked much like his white-haired owner and they shared a similar feisty energy. Harry had never seen one without the other. “Who’s moving into the Netherfield’s lot?”

The Netherfields had called 28 Longbourn Lane home for over 40 years. But when the couple moved into a nearby nursing home, their trailer sat empty. Nearly three years of neglect took its toll on the old mobile home, until Harry and Zayn had demolished it, hoping the empty land would attract a buyer. It was a shame they couldn’t salvage it. Finally with an empty lot available, a buyer came through.

Harry shrugged. “I don’t know. Last I heard Mom had just found someone interested. I haven’t heard who, though.”

Harry’s mom, Anne, managed Princess Park and its 78 lots on the outskirts of Meryton, Illinois. Their family owned and operated the modest mobile home community since Harry’s grandfather purchased the plot of land along Longbourn Creek in 1952.

“Hopefully the new neighbors won’t be weird. You never know these days,” Mrs. Hurst said, voice heavy with skepticism.

Kacey said, “You were worried about the same thing when I moved here last summer, Mrs H. I’m sure they’ll be nice.”

Beside her, Mitch Rowland laughed. “It is a truth universally acknowledged that anybody that wants to live a tiny home must be lacking in both taste and sense.”

I was thinking through what else I’m looking forward to this holiday season and I realized I haven’t mentioned it on here, just on discord, but— MY MOMS BEEN MAKING ME A REALLY COOL ART THING??

I think I’ve talked about it before, but my mom has been a quilter for most of my life and in the last few years started doing these really cool fabric collages, and it was my turn to request one so I asked for a phoenix cause I’m obsessed with this one art piece I did in art therapy ages ago

Anyway, my mom has been working on it and THIS was the last update I got???

I’m so excited for it?? Can’t wait to see where it’s at by the time I get there this weekend

dude holy fucking shit???? this is. beyond insane. i also quilt, though i've never tried paper piecing - though this doesnt even look like that. this has surpassed any and every sort of traditional quilt work. i can't even imagine how this is put together. im just staring at it in absolute wonder. youve short circuited my brain with how beautiful that is, and 'beautiful' isnt a strong enough word for what this is

So, as far as I can tell, this is a technique involving cutting tiny pieces of fabric with the colors/patterns you want and pinning and using fabric glue, and then sometimes sewing over top depending on the size of the pieces (this is what I’ve gathered from listening to my mom talk about it, but I know she learned the technique from a specific artist I can’t remember the name of who sells books and classes). My mom also frequently uses tulle over areas with lots of small piecing, usually as a way to adjust color but also I think cause it’s easier to sew the tulle piece than try and quilt aaaaalll of the little bits and pieces.

Here’s some pics from the workroom when I visited in November, and some pics from in-progress pieces before they were finished, if that gives you a better idea of how it works ^^

And here’s some finished pieces!

Update! I asked my mom for the name of the artist who she learned the technique from! If you’re curious about this style, you can find more info on her website! https://susancarlson.com/

Apparently she’s very generous with free tutorials as well as having books and workshops

Update! Re:technique, it’s mostly glued at first, with extra glue as well as some free motion quilting on top over areas that don’t have tulle over them, and tulle stitched over some areas.

Also updates on the phoenix!

You can kinda see the metallic details on some of the fabrics chosen! I love them. Also a glimpse at some of the bits cut out to use in the tail!

I’ll sneak into the quilting room for more closeups of this and other pieces before I leave ^^

Updates! (First, oops I forgot to get more pics of the work room when I was home; family visits are always busier than expected)

I was given two options for background as my mom was finishing up the bird part—

I ended up picking the greener one cause I love all the gold stuff, and my mom added even more gold details for that mythical feel

So this is the current most recent form!

Pairing: Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson Rating: T Word Count: 2k Summary:

Niall pushes the bedroom door open. A huge mass of brown fur bolts between his legs. Louis startles with a hand to his chest. “What the fuck was that?” “Oh, that’s the stray cat I told you that Liam found a few days ago.” “Are you sure that’s a cat?”
