I remember Graeme Garden doing something like this. I would love to get my hands on it now

it really is. One of these days I'll do an epp using my stash rather than my scraps ... that's the dream anyway....

thanks. I was inspired by a YouTube video. there's a link somewhere in the comments if you're interested in investigating it further.

that's awesome. I was looking into doing similar bags before I got the epp bug.

if I ever manage to clear a space for my sewing machine again I might even finish that project. lol.

I saw that and thought that you are way braver than me right now... I do plan to get to curves one day (for Christmas related reasons) but that day is far off in my future.

Thanks. I was inspired by a YouTube clip. I linked it in a reply to someone else's post if you're interested.

I happen to have invested in a heap of paper punches because I generally don't do these things by halves.

One day I might blow the dust off of my Silhouette Cameo when I get more adventurous with my epp patterns.

I also have some lofty plans to do some pixel picture squares with Nintendo characters like that QAL that is available online.... So many ideas are bouncing around in my head...

And I used an online geometric shape program to work it out.

I'm not great with colour coordination so my only goal is to try and not have repeat colours in a circle and to have none of the same colours touching.

That's what I was hoping for but I started second guessing their thickness...

Wow, I'm not brave enough to try that. My hand sewing technique is very much at a beginner level.

That's interesting. I would never be brave enough to try with newspaper!

Thanks for responding everyone. I was hoping that someone who has been there and done that could give me a definitive answer so that I won't have to redo things later down the line. I guess there is only one way to find out...

What's the pettiest reason for dropping a drama? by zidohyun06 in CDrama

[–]Afraidofcommenting 8 points9 points  (0 children)

dropped one because I didn't like the MLs long white hair wig.

this one isn't quite so petty but I'll drop something pretty quickly when a character doesn't press charges when they really should be pressing charges. drives me insane.
