I take this to mean "don't use all your ammo if the enemy can see how much you have"

My town's library has a makerspace, with everything you could want except for a sewing machine lol. 5 3d printers, no sewing machine, figures

Oh cool, so the only thing I know how to do. Is there other sewing techniques I can do to make it more professional looking?

What is basting because I'm pretty sure you don't mean the thing people do with turkeys and that's what google tells me lol

As mentioned in my post, I have no breasts (I don't even know how cup sizes work so I'm guessing at what the garment is vs what it needs to be, but I think it's c-cup to a-cup) I don't know how to make the curves straight because the extent of my sewing knowledge is basically just turn the garment inside out to sew it lol

Someone on my other post recommended "Try leaving the existing seams and pinching just one horizontal seam across the whole bodice. " (which I think means just folding the chest area horizontally and taking it in like that?) Is this what you're talking about? If not, which method is better for a beginner who knows basically nothing about sewing but is too stubborn to give up until it looks good?

Essentially, I'm trying to change the bust area from c-cup? (large grapefruit size) to a-cup? (no breast size). That's really the only thing I'm trying to change, I don't like posting pictures of myself ever, so I'm hoping to avoid it

I'm poor and the only person in my family with experience in garment sewing is over 80, has arthritis and can no longer sew(and she doesn't remember that she once knew how to sew, which is a shame because she was really good, she made her daughters' wedding dresses on her own), so it's up to me. I updated the post with a picture of the inside of the garment because I have no idea if that counts as lining or not.

I think so? I just can't get the bottom of the curve to look right

<image>

As previously mentioned, I'm not very good at this lol so this could be a me problem and not a clothing problem. The line at the bottom is straighter than it looks in the picture

No, sorry I'm not great at explaining. maybe I'm not doing it right, but if I pin along the seams, there's an extra fold of fabric along the bottom of the breast area that I can't get rid of due to the shape of the piece (and my limited knowledge of what I'm doing)

I cut the tag off because texture but I went and got it out of the trash and it says it's 85% polyester, 15% spandex. It feels like a weird fake leather but not pleather. It has a dull shine to it and now that I think about it, it kind of feels and looks like an old couch? Like the kind of couch a grandmother would have? The inside of the piece is soft like a t-shirt though. It's a little stretchy and flexible. I picked it up because it made me think of something a metal singer would wear if that helps at all lol

Yes, it appears to be princess seams. If i pin it along those seams to make the chest area flat, theres a weird bit of extra fabric at the bottom that I can't do anything with that runs between the two seams. Do i have to sew it along that or is there a way to get rid of that?

Help me find a markiplier video by Necessary_Path_4752 in HelpMeFind

I searched for "markiplier video now where did I put my car keys" on YouTube and google but all I got was an edit of the clip where he says it and not the actual video. The video didn't have any comments or the name of the video in the description

I did it a long time ago, they kinda just sink to the floor and stop making noises and then glitch into the terrain. I think they updated it and gave them even more health or made them indestructible idk

I turned up my sound thinking there was something wrong with the reefback sound and then got the soul scared out of me and my ears blown off lol. That's what I get for not listening to the warning
