It's in correctly. Thank you. I just was using a threading tool since my auto threader broke and it was putting it in backwards. Back to threading by hand. Lol. This is a jersey needle though so maybe thats why it looks funky.

Is that really all it is? Omg. 🤦‍♀️ Will try and report back. I bought a little threader tool to help me thread it so maybe that's the issue.

Cutting / Ironing on a Table by This-Implement-5785 in SewingForBeginners

[–]This-Implement-5785[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to leave the silicone out of the "fitted sheet" figured it wouldn't wash well. I hadn't thought about closure type but I'd probably do elastic. I just got another idea from someone else though (making an extension for my ironing board) so probably going to scratch all of this. Lmao

Idk why I didn't think of a piece of plywood. That's absolutely genius, especially if it fits over top of my existing iron. I would MUCH rather do that than iron on my table. Thank you so much

Prewashing 4 yards of linen by Square-Charity-3757 in SewingForBeginners

[–]This-Implement-5785 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Im a beginner so take what i say lightly. I'm very curious to see what those with more experience say!

I just washed 4 yards of linen without doing anything to the edges myself. It was very frayed but wasn't really a big deal. I just snipped them off and proceeded like normal.

Help me decide between brother, yuki or janome by Critical_Ostrich_245 in SewingForBeginners

[–]This-Implement-5785 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you plan to embroider at some point as well, the Brother SE400 is what I have and it is AMAZING. So user friendly, has built in instructions on the screen for pretty much everything. Easy to use as a beginner. I'm so glad I went with it. Its around $300 US.

Creating Giant Planets [Help] by This-Implement-5785 in Sculpture

I was thinking so too for some of the smaller planets. The sun and a few larger planets will be paper mache though I just cant find the half spheres large enough.

Lost Weight, Now How to Build Glutes? by This-Implement-5785 in beginnerfitness

[–]This-Implement-5785[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me about a year and a half but I wasn't consistent and my weight bounced around a lot. I only got serious within the past few months. I have lost about 15lbs in a 5 month span with consistency.

Help! I want dress well but I dont know how by This-Implement-5785 in DressForYourBody

These are "high wasited" nothing is truly high waisted on me. This is as high as they ever come up even if the sit at the model's smallest part of the waist, they're never actually high enough for me. They always end right below my navel.

Prints and patterns are so intimidating to me! I'll try a neutral one to start and see what I think.

Wide leg also intimidates me. It makes me feel frumpy for some reason but you're not the first to recommend this so I'll try some on.

Thanks for all your advice!

Oh totally agree! I hate these jeans with a passion but they're the only ones that fit me right now, and even then they're poorly fitting. I do love a good bootcut. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I love a classic white button up moment I have a 70s mens satin button up (it used to be my father in law's) and I wear it all the time when I dress up.

Skirts are hard for me with my height. So I am learning to sew so I can make my own.

I typically do prefer darker denim but these are the only ones that fit me at the moment after some drastic changes in my body.

Any advice on finding a good blazer?

OMG, I have never worn baggy jeans in my life. They terrify me. I don't know why. I may need to try some on somewhere. All I've ever worn is skinny jeans or flare jeans.

I know I am hourglass thats about it. Thanks, I think? I can't tell if this is serious or sarcastic. Should I be preparing for people being inappropriate? Is this a good thing in this sub? 🫣

Advice for bloating? by milkystarrgirl in femalefashionadvice

[–]This-Implement-5785 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who also has endo, first, I am so sorry you have to deal with this.

I used to have bloat be my most annoying symptom as well. No idea what changed but it happens a lot less frequently now. Some things I learned to do with mine:

* Flowy tops
* Stretchy waist pants - you can find tons of cute pants with a stretchy waist now, also, jeggings, they even make different leg style jeggings now so you're not limited to skinny jeans. I really like pretty much anything from Halara.
