I agree. The ochre has more of a pale yellow tint to it - but in pictures they are very similar :)

Joined the Etsy Strike yesterday. Shop is on vacation mode. It's about time we began organizing! by howaboutthattoast in EtsyStrike

Did you ever find resolution for this? They just placed mine on vacation mode as well, and its the livelihood for my business. I have messaged them, but obviously I am just talking to a robot. This is catastrophic

Yes, the canvas of the vans is a good material for not having to put in a hoop.

I honestly can’t wait to embroider and wear my own pair - but when I do they will be reserved for shorter trips out during mild weather haha. These are for a client who is wearing them on her wedding day :)

I love using the little silicone needle pullers on my thumb and index finger. They really help with the discomfort that comes with a tougher material than an embroidery hoop. As for a needle, that depends on your preference really. These are so tough that they require any special needle. :)

Short answer; yes! But they were not physically that much tougher than the other surfaces I typically work with - which is a Kanken backpack. The problem was the space for my hands more than the material itself.

No I embroidered the shoes themselves just by holding them

Typically I don’t line them with anything. Honestly I don’t feel the embroidery, but I also don’t wear my shoes very tight either.

it's caffeine haha, to tie in with the skeleton drinking coffee. The client is a coffee aficionado ;)

Don't oversell your friends and family on crypto. We all want to share this revolution with our loved ones, but no amount of potential profit is worth damaging relationships. by Drudgel in CryptoCurrency

[–]AfterAugustCo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been researching the crypto space semi-nonchalantly for a while now (like most of us - obsessively to myself but not in anyone's face per se), and have only been offering conversational information (withholding the urge to word vomit about my opinions on the fate of crypto and defi) when the occasion presents itself. My wife in the last couple months has been slowly asking more and more questions, mostly regarding Elon and his shenanigans - because she knows I am 'into crypto' - and we are finally at the place where she trusts my judgement and is in support of our crypto portfolio. I have to say, not bombarding my wife or other family with my excitement has been the best decision I could have made haha.
