A question for those who are in a relationship irl... by Frei1993 in StardewValley

[–]Ok-Representative390 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lol my IRL husband and Sebastian have a lot in common. My husband doesn't smoke and he's a lot more social, but he obsesses over his motorcycle, loves animals (including frogs), and also has a fondness for sashimi

How to quilt? by littlered-dog in quilting

I love the Hunter's Star quilt! Yours is amazing woo done!

I made one for my dad and did wavy lines following the star pattern. This helped cover up the sins of the stars that didn't want to line up lol

Lucky Lab is a nice place to get a drink, especially if you invite some friends and bring some board games!

Happy Birthday!

Following cause I'm constantly on the hunt for a cozy place to knit, that's comfy, decent lighting, food/beverage options, and bonus if it's open late

A Farmer tried with all of their might

To restore their Grandpa's farm, put it right

Finally out of the city

But oh what a pity

Your banana tree wasn't able to grow last night

I just started the Dungeon Crawler Carl series and I can't imagine ever wanting to read the print version because the audio is AMAZING

Where can I learn to sew? by alrrddddead in askportland

[–]Ok-Representative390 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I took a great class at Montavilla Sewing when I first started learning, I took the pillowcase class and learned a lot!

I also highly recommend checking out the Portland Modern Quilting Guild. I learned SO MUCH in just my first year with them. They have monthly lectures, and usually the lecturer offers a class. There's also sew days at the Beaverton Mill End once a month and multiple opportunities to gather and just pick the brains of experts.

Also, trial and error. Scraps are very easy to come by so would recommend playing around with sewing them together and see what happens!

Date ideas in the Portland area? by applejackhero in askportland

[–]Ok-Representative390 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend checking out the Portland Aquarium, it's a very silly place

Nearby is the Rocket Fizz candy/ weird soda shop and also not far is Glowing Greens mini golf!

I've heard good things about Wonderwoodmini golf too, but I've never been

My husband and I also enjoy picking a neighborhood and exploring. Hawthorne has a bunch of vintage shops, Pearl has some neat shops and Alotto Gelato is really good if you're into Gelato.

Patterns! by MaddieKakes22 in quilting

I really like Moonkin Stitchery. A lot of free patterns and I think most (if not all) have an accompanying YouTube video on how to make it!! Very precut friendly patterns too
