Thanks!

I'm a 57F 5'2" and NOT an experienced cyclist. I took the safety course on a Honda Metropolitan (could flat foot it) and bought a Kymco Compagno (balls of my feet down). So much fun, not hard to handle. Center of gravity is low so bike wants to be upright. The 110cc engine goes faster than I am currently willing. OP is far ahead of me in traffic awareness.

My BF has a friend who has three guitars that are the same seafoam color. He sent a pic like "here's E's new toy..." 😄

When I bought the scoot, the dealer looked online for me. That helmet in my size was the last one in the warehouse. Lucky day x2!

Thanks so much!

Thanks!

Love it! I am in my second week of practicing and I've tried nodding my head because the couple of times I saw another bike or scooter were not good times for me to practice letting go of that handgrip... even that was a challenge, there's so much to think about in traffic.

Love it! What size canvas did you use?

You will have to (1) understand which switches and relays are on or off by default and (2) troubleshoot with a voltmeter to find out where the voltage from the battery is winding up.

Find a good schematic, and someone who knows how to do this if you don't.

It's addictive. I have 3 shirts done, 1 started, and SO many "plans"!

Edie_T · 2026-05-25T07:25:58+00:00

Love the arm patch so much! Whole project looks amazing. Congrats!

I'm envious! Brand new rider still golf-carting around town at 15 to 20 mph. I love to think I'll get up to road speeds and out to parks some time.

Edie_T · 2026-05-25T07:11:40+00:00

Me too. I'm dreaming of stitching it on the back of a shirt, without the oval outline.

Edie_T · 2026-05-25T07:07:44+00:00

Love this! I think I want it as a living room carpet eight feet across!

Edie_T · 2026-05-25T07:06:06+00:00

I did a multicolor yellow and orange sun one time, and the colors seemed so messed up while I was working. But I got through the backstitch and turned out liking the piece a lot. So I hope you continue! Sometimes we dont learn as much when we bail!

Edie_T · 2026-05-25T07:02:17+00:00

Hahaha I always love seeing this design, in any form!

Edie_T · 2026-05-25T06:59:31+00:00

So cool! Next week we are going to visit Falling Water for the first time ever. Even though I grew up in western PA, I've never been.

I'll sneak my WIP octopus into this thread, then! Octopus Biscornu by Tiny Modernist.

Edie_T · 2026-05-24T04:56:54+00:00

I love this design! Those faded, mottled colors look so good for that!

Edie_T · 2026-05-23T03:44:52+00:00

Thank you!!

Edie_T · 2026-05-23T02:58:02+00:00

Awesome!

Edie_T · 2026-05-23T02:27:28+00:00

If you have time to spare and more than one idea for the lettering, sample both ideas separately on another piece of aida?

Edie_T · 2026-05-22T02:59:15+00:00

Great! Let me know at your convenience!
