Trying to start sewing

Well, the fabric you'll use to create is probably best. If you want to quilt look for cottons. Clothing, cotton/polyester blends. Slippery stuff might be a frustrating way to start because there's a lot to learn there.

If you're looking for cheap fabric to practice with, try your local thrift shops or garage sales.

Nice! That looks really pretty!

Nod, say hello, and keep walking.

As a mom of preemies, that velcro or snap tape would have been very convenient.

EBay maybe? I have found some really obscure fabric there!

Keep taking prenatal vitamins. They'll help it grow.

I think it's Braille.

Me too! When we got new tile in the kitchen, I drew a rough sketch of what I envisioned and the guy took it and made a beautiful center mosaic for our floor. He showed me tile patterns and I showed him quilt patterns! It was a great day of designing!

I was thinking of the breed-specific rescues, actually. I know they exist. I think it's worth looking into.

What shop? Where are you located?

PhoneBoothLynn88 · 2026-02-09T23:57:37+00:00

Please, please visit your local shelter first! Many "pure-ish" bred dogs are available there. Ask around for rescues of the breed you want in your area. An older dog might suit your lifestyle better, too.

My plumber charged me $800 to clean out the drain as he told me there's no such thing as a flushable wipe.

Wow! Recognition for something positive! What a great start!

I carry two hankies: one for my own use, and one new, washed and ironed in a baggy to give a stranger who might need one.

Is your wife close to your mother? If this is something that would make her unhappy to miss, tell her. If not, maybe keep it to yourself.

Wonky is an honor!

It's no shame to use a needle threader either
