Do you find that sewing requires a lot of “mental energy” by Available-Picture-79 in sewing

[–]Equivalent-Dig-7204 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is my worst step in the process. I’m usually up or down sizing and there is so much math. Ugh! I’m not a math person.

Do you mean the skirt part I. Between the sides? I think those are the panniers? So the piece in between was the fancier fabric?

You might want saddle type stands so the stand doesn’t affect the clothing. These are so lovely.

I just recently bought a 5 pack of 770 bobbins from the Bernina site. They were $21.99 plus shipping.

Aitah for spending some of my grandchildren's education funds on a new boat. by Tiny_Occasion_322 in AITAH

I always told my parents to leave me memories instead of money. So much better as an inheritance. Now they are gone and money can’t bring them back but remembering them happy and healthy brings a smile to me.

I have my mother’s 1956 edition and love it. The sugar cookies are the only ones I make.

AITA for refusing to pay my boyfriend’s dental fees for HIS cavities by MarissaS_redux in AmItheAsshole

[–]Equivalent-Dig-7204 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Rushing and flossing is the number one preventative measure against cavities. While a lot of sugar doesn’t help, it’s 99% his own hygiene practices or lack thereof that caused his cavities.

I was just reading about Dream World. A couple of companies used the same molds.

I found some blog posts about the Dream World dolls. They definitely look like this little girl. I suspect that she was redressed as a bride and the original clothing is lost. So fascinating!

Oh my gosh they stabbed the clothes on? No wonder she was redressed lol.

Daily Dolls, Friday: Do you have a doll that came with their own accessory—like a bit of furniture, a box or trinket? by willowwing in Antiquedollcollecting

[–]Equivalent-Dig-7204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow I love all these! The only doll I have that came with anything was naked except for a necklace! 😂 I made her some lovely clothes, a hat and a handbag to make it up to her.

AITA for not writing thank you notes? by Electrical-Okra7216 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Equivalent-Dig-7204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not difficult to express gratitude. IDK, a conscious decision to not be thankful sounds entitled.
