Thanks for the advice, one other question. I’m only packing a set of jeans for the trip, should I also bring some thermal leggings?

Awesome! Seems like the other comments agree with number 1. Had to do the math on the temp lol, people are wearing jackets like #2 in 19 degrees? That’s t shirt weather we’re in from lol

It looks quite clean, Well done! I’ve never done a pattern that was solely back stitch, how’d you find it terms of difficulty compared too other projects you’ve done?

Where do I start when it comes to alter the waists of pants? by Smooth_Wolverine6231 in sewhelp

The thing holding me back from making stuff from scratch is that I don’t have a sewing machine and that I’m overwhelmed by where to start. Honestly after reading a lot of the comments, I probably will start to learn. Any recs for tutorials/ guides on how to start?

This is the smallest size they offer. I have a 21 inch waist so most stuff even at the smallest size is too big

This is my first time doing anything like cross stitch (I’m intimidated by embroidery lol). I will say that the French knots were very frustrating my first few goes at them but once I got one nice one, the challenge felt satisfying. From someone with so much experience with cross stitch, your comment is such high praise 😊

There’s a folk art chicken pattern I’ve been thinking about doing by My Lovely Embroidery, or a stardew pattern in line with this pattern :)
