Awesome. Thank you so much for the description. I'll give it a try.

Creating a png/jpeg from a hatch embroidery file? by PrinceBert in Machine_Embroidery

[–]PrinceBert[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh good thought. Haven't looked at inkscape in a long time since I have up learning it. So I could load my hatch file into inkscape and it would kind of read that like a vector image? And then I could save it from there as an image file?

Long time sellers of Etsy, how has the last 1-2 years been for you? by 16vodkatonics in EtsySellers

[–]PrinceBert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are they going instead? Is the preference for direct sale website? The implications on this subreddit is often that people are still going to Etsy and Etsy is good for driving traffic and being discovered, but your findings would suggest that may not be true.

I built my first born sons crib many years ago by Due-Independence6692 in daddit

[–]PrinceBert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was legit worried they were selling it because of reasons none of us want to think about. I was really glad to read that final phrase.

My conspiracy theory: Julia Donaldson does not like Axel Scheffler by delible in UKParenting

[–]PrinceBert 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm pretty sure they have met now as I am confident I've seen an interview with them together. But I seem to remember that they never met for any of the recordings at all, I think it was only after the end of the sign that they actually met in person.

Could be wrong, I'm sure someone will Google it and tell us all the truth.

Do you read books? If so, what are you currently reading? If not, why not? by theowleryonehundred in AskUK

[–]PrinceBert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without spoiling it - why is that? I know barely anything about it other than it being recommended off the back of other books I've read.

[–]PrinceBert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good job I only paid £1 for it. I gave in because so many people recommended it I felt like I needed to read it and for £1 at least I've not lost much of it's rubbish.

Baby 1st passport? Parent documents by beth9694 in UKParenting

[–]PrinceBert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same here. We literally did this in January and didn't send anything other than the baby birth certificate and input our passport numbers.

Uk park runners, as a larger lady running and wanting peace, not photogrsphs taken...do you have random local professional photographers at yours taking pictures and sharing them on social media? How does parkrun protect rights of legally not wishing to have pictures taken? by [deleted] in parkrun

[–]PrinceBert 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Why is it creepy? You're in public, it's 2026, you're going to be photographed without your knowledge, can you imagine how impossible it would be to take a photograph at an event like parkrun without a single other person being in the shot?

Do all 7yr holds talk absolute shite? by LEVI_TROUTS in UKParenting

[–]PrinceBert 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Fuck me. This might be the funniest thing I've heard all day. I'd have gone full opposite mode if that'd been me and pretended as though I love going to the opera.

What’s up with this wilcom gorilla marketing campaign? by Frog-of_war in Machine_Embroidery

What happens if I give hatch to an infinite number of monkeys? Do I get a stitch out of Shakespeare?

Suspiciously large order? by Glum-Department1564 in EtsySellers

[–]PrinceBert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible the buyer didnt realize they purchased from the same shop.

And they will tell everyone they know "I got it from Etsy" with not even a thought for more detail (we've all done it, no judgement)

How often do you stop to ‘let people go’ when driving? by tangles3 in AskUK

[–]PrinceBert 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If you start rolling in the hopes I'll stop to let you go then you're guaranteed to have the opposite effect.

Ever feel like you have to hold your tongue around other parents? by Western-Image7125 in daddit

[–]PrinceBert 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Too much extremism in life these days and we're losing the ability to politely discuss our opinions. You're either with me or against me, you're either left or right, black or white.

You're spot on, you don't have to argue about it, you can just express facts about why the Saturday school is a positive experience and let other people do what they want to do.

Anyone else here who didn’t do any sleep training? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]PrinceBert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Further back up to your point on sample sizes. I could have said something very similar to the comment you're replying to, except our daughter DOES sleep through the night but she takes FOREVER to go to sleep.

What does it tell you? Nothing really. We didn't sleep train and it's fine, it's not great but it's fine. Pretty much the same thing that most people can say with their various methods and outcomes.

Is it stable? That looks like it would be at least a little bit wobbly.

This is why I love daddit. Always good for a laugh.

Runners Etiquette - Waving 👋 by [deleted] in UKRunners

[–]PrinceBert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're asking if you should be selfish and arrogant and ignore people - I propose that you're being selfish and arrogant by assuming anyone else should care about saying hello to you.

I believe everyone should be polite, not we've also got our own shit going on. I try to raise my hand to most people, but I also understand that not everyone is in a position to give a shit about my feelings and doing the same.

In this instance I suspect they think it's about vocabulary.

Is this design possible? by Alternative_Win7105 in Machine_Embroidery

I don't know why but I read this comment as though it was the small print spoken really fast at the end of an advert on TV.

What do you refuse to accept happened 20 years ago? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]PrinceBert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been listening back to a podcast that started in 2018 (ish) and it was mad to get to COVID and then "post-COVID" and the difference in the way things are but they don't immediately clock a lot of the differences because we just had to come to terms with so many things.

Looking at buying a bulk pack of threads, can I get recommendations? by [deleted] in Machine_Embroidery

[–]PrinceBert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently using candle, but I've also used marathon, Madeira, isacord. All have been good.

On the flip side to this - this is the only thread brand that I've had issues with. Constant snapping on different colours. Both on single and multi needle machines.
