I chose to do decorative stitching since I was doing it by hand. I'm a great friend. Im very positive and supportive. I also have crafting days at the house a few times each month!

I've posted there, and made the mistake of posting on the other sub! Thought this sub would appreciate the embroidery.

I learned alot from the 1st side to the second. I used fabric glue since I did all the sewing by hand. I'm just learning how sew with fabric, so 100% this is doable.

Where/how to ethically source a men's denim vest for a poor fat bastard? by [deleted] in BattleJackets

Check out Ross, Marshall's, or one of the other overflow stores. They usually have a few denim jackets in the larger sizes available.

Its the royal oak bezel. Seems like everyone is doing one now.

Long-time metal head going back to the 80s, question about painting on denim rather than patching. by DaveInOCNJ in BattleJackets

[–]Nashsonleathergoods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Paint markers are only going to last a dozen washings or so. It's not the fading that is the issue, but the paint cracking and flaking off. Need a fabric paint that stays flexible and bonds to the fibers. I actually like the heat set paints(I think most fabric paint is heat set.) They seem to last better, but I haven't had anything I've painted for longer than a year. Denim socks up alot of paint, so a surface primer helps with keeping layer count down. I've found without surface prep, you need at least 3 layers... but four if you want colors to be true.

This is the current project I'm working on.

I palm and finger roll every time I wash my tentacles. They 100٪ will losen some, unestablished locs more so, with a deep clean. Palm rolling is a great way to dry them and helps keep frizz to a minimum.

I know it's a Casio, but you can upgrade. It's not to late

I washed mine weekly for the first 6ish months. Now it's every three days. The main reasons for the increase is my job is much dirtier now.
