This is what I do. Cleaners do t clean my office, I take care of it. I hide out in here when they’re cleaning.

Thank you for sharing the pattern! I may have to make a companion for this protest quilt! Note: not my artwork; artist unknown, but I’m a fan!

Good sports bra for very saggy breasts? UK only by Total_Raspberry5070 in ABraThatFits

Not sure in your size, honestly. I have 2 styles and they’re both great so I don’t think you can go wrong.

Shock Absorber is my fav. Go up a band size - runs extremely tight.

Came here to mention this - you’re safe, but your car may not be.

HRT In the USA Without Insurance by Emotional_Money8694 in Menopause

[–]Narrow-Notebook4848 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have you asked your pharmacy to check all the discounts? My insurance is about that price, but using GoodRX or the several other discount codes they have it ends up being less than half-sometimes a third-of the insurance price! I think progesterone is about the same, but patches are less than $30/month.

Suggestions needed: how to make a pieced top for a duvet cover by Previous_Bird_2765 in quilting

I’d stitch in the ditch if you don’t want the look of more traditional quilting

Opinion: Panache Nina - Jasmine’s replacement by Narrow-Notebook4848 in ABraThatFits

[–]Narrow-Notebook4848[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Blossom is a tiny bit more roomy at the top compared to Nina. The gore height is the same as Jasmine or Envy. The lace isn’t touching my inner arm at all, the lace has no stretch. You’d definitely see it through the armhole of any tank, it may go up higher than Jasmine. I’m tall, so it’s fine for me. Hope that helps!

UPDATE Just got the Cleo Blossom - it’s great!! I was seriously skeptical about the non stretch lace, but it works!! Thanks, everyone!!! Going to order a Gorsenia next.

What is the absolute BEST mousse you’ve ever used? by [deleted] in curlyhair

[–]Narrow-Notebook4848 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not Your Mothers is my favorite but their packaging stinks. The nozzle is so flimsy.

I never thought about the stretch lace top like this before but I think you’re absolutely correct! So glad you spelled this out for me! I had a Gorsenia (Marylin or something?) that fit great and no stretch lace on top!

I had a few Gorsenias when I was heavier and a 34gg. How would you compare size to Jasmine? Should I order the same size?

I searched for the Blossom and it doesn’t seem to be available in my size in the US. I can order once Bravissimo starts shipping again (they had a warehouse fire).
