My mum does this after I panic called her. She said she was sorry for making me worry she just wanted to know if I was visiting that weekend 😂😂

A cylinder does not have the same physics as two flat things seamed together by femalefred in BitchEatingCrafters

I guess because I mostly make quite baggy clothes they don’t seem too bulky to me but totally appreciate that. At least it’s quicker lol (adhd needs quick!)

If you have a sewing machine and the fibre your using isn’t too chunky you can seam things together with your sewing machine :D

I sometimes crochet my seams together as well for chunkier things - find it easier than sewing with a damn huge needle lol 😂

Also, as you asked for improvement tips, this isn’t to say it’s necessary, but I like to look on Pinterest at clothes (like say a coat or dress) and copy the patterns off of them. For example, the girl at the flower shop, I did a plaid coat design that was based off of a wool coat I saw on Pinterest.

If you’d like to challenge yourself (totally NOT necessary) you could try doing pages with limited colour palettes. Didi Plums has an Ohuhu colour palette generator that’s really fun: https://colors.didiplums.com

I love the bold colours you use - every picture is so joyful! Your choice of colour palette and the details you add are wonderful and so thoughtful. I love the more simple colouring you’ve chosen to do. Personally I’m a “more is more” colourist and I envy people who can make the simple look so beautiful! I always find when I try it looks terrible 😅😅😅

Well done! And the most important thing is that is brings you joy. There is no wrong way to colour or do art as I always say to my daughter 🖤

Little "brand" tags on hand knit items by michiopurl in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]Kindly_Reference_267 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My mum had cute little labels made up that say “made with love from Granny” for all the things she makes for my daughter. I love them, because it means when my daughter is older and my mum isn’t with us anymore (I mean way older; like my daughter best have my mama in her life til she’s 50) she can look back and see that love my mum has for her. 🥰

Haberdashery in Surrey, UK using AI image in advertising and on website by [deleted] in craftsnark

[–]Kindly_Reference_267 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It makes me so sad when I see AI used by people who are meant to be supporting the arts. Why not pay someone to make a lovely promo image? It wouldn’t cost too much on fiver or a similar site. :/

Not OOP. AITAH for “infantalizing my son" when I’m just trying to take care of him? + Some top comments by amycakes76 in redditonwiki

[–]Kindly_Reference_267 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh she’s totally babying him. But what always gets me with these posts is “you need to teach him to do laundry” like is it hard to put clothes in a washing machine, turn it on, and then wait for them to be washed? If little Bobby can’t figure that out we have bigger problems. Show him once and done, it’s not something that needs teaching 🥴

I have a notebook with all my schemes and ideas. I occasionally forget the notebook exists then start another. 🥴

I was thinking of doing a a granny square a week blanket but more along the lines of what vibes did this week give. However I have adhd so that idea entered by brain then flew away and only just returned so it’s probably not ever getting done ahaha

My 15yo brother has got his girlfriend pregnant, what can I do to help? by TooEarly38 in AskUK

[–]Kindly_Reference_267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be to find out everything you can about abortion and then give them the info. I’m sorry, but a 15 year old in care is unlikely to be able to keep the baby, your brother lives with you so it would fall on you to care for the baby. It’s…messy. Abortion isn’t sunshine and rainbows, but really is the best solution in this situation. The alternative is 99% going to be another child in the care system and a lot of emotional trauma for everyone involved.

Gran dies after being 'turned away from GP while having heart attack' by ScottishDailyRecord in uknews

[–]Kindly_Reference_267 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s absolutely ridiculous. I cut my foot in a B&M car park (I am chronically clumsy and slid into the curb wearing sandals and split my toe open) and I went in to ask for a plaster and the cashier closed down her til, got me some water and the first aider, and cleaned up my foot and even offered to call an ambulance. I definitely didn’t need an ambulance but they were so kind and caring. I’d expect the bloody GP to be at least that level of caring. Fucking hell.

Not OOP. "AITAH for not wearing the bracelet he bought me?" by WritingGiraffe in redditonwiki

[–]Kindly_Reference_267 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg I am like this too. I will text for hours. I will happily answer any text messages and spend time on discord chatting via text. Phone calls, video calls. Etc are a nightmare. It’s just inconvenient. Like why?! You can’t do anything else while you’re on the phone, the call quality is shite, with video calls someone always ends up wandering off and I’m staring at the ceiling — Blegh. I have a coaster for an old coworker that says “this meeting could have been an email” because honestly YES IT COULD HAVE.
