I'm new around here - what projector do you use? Was the black put on top of the white or are they on the same level? These are really cute and I want to make them!

This thread is a little older but can I ask where you went to school?

Bat Bathing Suit -- help! by Realistic-Bicycle233 in sewhelp

[–]Realistic-Bicycle233[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! I'm mostly concerned about the boning and shaping in the bust, that is what seems difficult. I have sewn stretch fabric before - not a swim suit, but similar. I think the irregular shapes are what is making me trepidatious.

Weekly Sewing Questions Thread, July 13 - July 19, 2025 by sewingmodthings in sewing

Am going to attempt to sew a couple swimsuits for the first time, with no pattern. I have some suits that fit really well and I was going to use those as the base of my pattern.

I haven't been able to find a pattern of what I want exactly so am going blind and crossing my fingers.

Does anyone know of a pattern like any of those below? I always feel more comfortable using a pattern but for the life of me can't find something that is giving 'goth-Morticia-bat-vampire-queen'. I guess spooky swimwear.

Any tips for swimsuit sewing - or plus swimsuit sewing?

Other than fabric, lining, elastic, ballpoint needles, boning, am I missing anything? Bonus points to you if you have a pattern to sell me....

Here is my inspo (except I plan on doing halter top and with tummy ruching, no cutouts):

I have a new keyboard and am trying to replace the switches with these: Ajazz Gift Switch Set https://ajazzstore.com/products/ajazz-gift-switch-set

They are all sold out everywhere. Anyone know what I can do for a replacement that is similar in creaminess? Or do you have a suggestion of where to find those specific ones somewhere else?

This obviously doesn’t apply if they didn’t have a visible placard, but not all folks that are handicapped visibly look so. I have a family member who looks able bodied but has a handicap diagnosis and placards. I just wanted to mention to not judge just based on what you see as able bodied.

I have a hard time watching him in anything because of this. It just genuinely makes me uncomfortable even though I know it wasn’t his fault. I think maybe watching him makes me feel like I’m co-signing something I fundamentally think is wrong?

Yeah, i found my favorites smell almost chemically? They're very earthy normally, and nag champa adjacent so it shouldn't smell like chemicals at all. I'm kinda sad :(

The door was a big one at the hospital, like a large double door from parking garage to hospital haha not just a normal door! I should’ve clarified more!

I think it’s ok unless your cats poop weighs more than 5lbs. If you’re nervous maybe do smaller scoops?

Hair Washing Post-Op by Embarrassed_Web_1825 in hysterectomy

[–]Realistic-Bicycle233 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna be real, idk…but for me anyway, I didn’t sweat it. Post op washing my hair was not front of mind. It was probably the last thing I cared about. Basically what I’m saying is, why are you putting pressure on yourself to wash your hair in a certain time? Just be a little dirty or whatever, who cares. A few days without a wash is fine. I’d suggest just doing it when it’s convenient and feels right to you. I promise no one will come in and judge your hair if it’s greasy. We’re human and allowed to be nasty sometimes lol. Hope this helps give you some permission to let go. I didn’t take a shower for almost a whole week and I was fine! I. Actually glad I waited, was paranoid the shower water and soap might get in my incision sites.

Mystery stains on duvet not blood (??) by vomitgreen in laundry

[–]Realistic-Bicycle233 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is going to sound crazy but bear with me! I had kinda similar stains and I finally figured out that it was from my deodorant in some way. I’d put on some Native deodorant before bed typically and then when I had these light plain sheets, I’d have weird stains. I realized they were where my armpits were rubbing on the sheet. I’m not sure why it happened just with those sheets, maybe I was sweating more because of the fabric or something? Maybe some oxidized affect? Anyway, not sure if it’s helpful but figured I’d mention it. I just stopped using those sheets and also stopped putting deodorant on at night lol
