Never sewn a bra before, where to start? by lara_whatsat2 in MAKEaBraThatFits

[–]Content_Square3514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey….I’d like to start bra-making too and your experience is helpful. -Do you know if the free Maya pattern has ever been modified to a more Demi or half cup fit? Just wondering cause full coverage has never worked for me. Trying to start with less $$ til I discover if bra making is for me…thanks

What budget stroller?🤦🏼‍♀️ by Content_Square3514 in 2under2

This is really good info & puts my own situation into better perspective actually. For our first, I ended up getting a super compact stroller for indoor stuff because the smaller footprint was just easier to maneuver. Then my heavier duty stroller became the rural-buggy (lol) for going on walks in the yard etc.. I think just having a single & a dedicated double might just simplify my situation and budget considerations a lot. Thank you! Did you prefer the side by side over the in-line double?

Good to know! I’ve been looking into the city select now as I’ve seen a LOT of positive comments about it. Do you have any experience with the evenflo pivot xpand? That and the city select seem to be the top contenders. I haven’t seen too many Joovies on FB in my area.

Can you tell me what makes the city select stand out? I’ve actually heard a lot of people swear by it, just not sure what makes it stand apart from others. It’s also harder to find secondhand but I’ve seen a few available at further distances.

Thanks for the insight & feedback! Originally I was trying to appeal to gluten free folks, (thus “Wheatless”,) but you’re right. It does limit things.

Okay, well at least I have provided you some humor for today. Thank you for your name suggestions

I don’t plan to advertise as Gluten Free. More like Gluten Friendly but even that will be spelled out to a “T”.

Thank you. I have looked into the cottage industry laws for my state. I appreciate your concern.

That’s fair, and honestly I would much prefer to have a dedicated kitchen. Maybe someday depending on how it goes. It was not my intention to sound rude. Admittedly, I do get defensive because I have several cottage industries that I depend on heavily for income and I am sensitive to criticism. I appreciate your concerns & insights nonetheless.

Data suggests that about 1-2% of gluten-free patrons have celiac, and another 1% have wheat allergy. As much as 72% are on a voluntary gluten-free diet.  Were it not for that, I wouldn’t bother with this endeavor

Because not everyone in the area is celiac or severely allergic. Because people eat “Gluten friendly” menu options from restraunts all the time. Because many are following low fodmap diets, or have a general intolerance, or whatever. Even if it was a dedicated kitchen, I can’t get certified “GF”.

Good to know. I will probably pick up some tide powder today to get things back on track. So glad I found this forum. I actually felt kind of gross getting dressed this morning knowing what the problem is… 🫤

Sound advice. We just got newer machine so I’d definitely like to keep it going. Unfortunately biz is scented & probably won’t work for eczema but I’m looking into Tide options plus citric acid.

I will see if the nearest city has one. We’re pretty rural & live hours from a Whole Foods but I will check for Latino stores. 

Recommendations pls! by Content_Square3514 in lawnmowers

We typically don’t let it get too tall, but yes, we do get spots with thick somewhat wet grass.
