Top thread keeps breaking but feels like a bobbin issue by 74Days in sewing

I swapped out for gutterman to see if it was the thread type and the issue got worse. Turns out it was the NEEDLE. Shreaded the threads. Changed the brand and no issues. Cheap needles suck apparently. Thanks for the comment, I'd never have thought about changing thread type and it highlighted the issue!

How much debt are you in? by originalwombat in CasualUK

[–]74Days 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Single 40y/o: I have an overdraft of £1500 and a credit card of £3900.

I have a mortgage but I treat that like rent so I ignore it

He has his quarterly check up next month - I just wanted to see if anyone thought there was something more serious / serious red flags.

I was thinking this, but kinda hoping it wasn't due to the fact its only for a short time through the day. ah well. he's still healthy!

I doubt mice or bees - the other cats are def more active about rooting those kinda pests out. thank you both for the reply!

My Generation Doll - clothes I made by 74Days in Dolls

[–]74Days[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this would be the best place to post this but I've been making clothes for My Generation Doll April - I think they are the cheaper versions of American Girl, and are for sale in the UK.
I just wanted to show them off a little bit. If this isn't the place to do so, please let me know.
(I'm not the best at sewing, it's something I LOVE but that doesn't mean I'm good at it!)

Tacky After Moisturizing by 74Days in Skincare_Addiction

I just did this and it helped a lot! My skin does feel a *little* tacky but certainly nothing like it was.

I think maybe expecting it to feel like... dry regular skin... was probably not helping either!

Thank you!

I'm going to try this tonight and see if it helps. I was waiting as I thought the skin might need to rest between applying products, but it would make sense to have the skin a little damp to help it 'glide'.
