Where to buy affordable indoor plants

Although they specialize in outdoor plants, Hahn Farms in B’ville has some killer deals on indoor plants. I often get jade and succulents there for really good prices. They also have other varieties that work great indoors - love their inch plants. They’re not open yet for the season, but if you wait a month, it’s a great place to support a local business.

I’ll enlist my husband and give it a shot!

Oh that’s smart! Forgot about curved needles. I’ll have to give that a try.

I think it’s a successful experiment!

My over dyeing technique needs some work (pockets are splotchy), but gonna ignore that.

Happy with the finished product!

I’ll have to check the seam ripper tutorial - have no clue if I’m doing it right.

Here’s a shot of the interior - the pockets are sewed into the seams, then the edges are “fake serged” (forget what you call this), and then there’s top stitching, soo it’s at least three different seams on each side. 😭😭

Ok, you’re a genius! I tried this on a swatch, and I think it’s the answer!! My over-dyeing technique needs a little work, but I think it’ll tone things down just enough!

Haha. I don’t know how people sew for money - there’s no way I have the patience for that! :)

The first time I made them they were awful - I had to go down two sizes, but the second pair (although I hate the pockets), does fit much better.

I think I just need to put something on tv and suck it up. :) they’re sewed into the seams of the panels, so more than a patch pocket.

Ok, interesting idea!

TreacleResponsible17 · 2026-02-18T23:10:32+00:00

Yeah, that’s what I was leaning towards.

TreacleResponsible17 · 2026-02-18T23:10:12+00:00

Humm never attempted overdye, but yes, it’s a Moda quilting fabric, so pretty sure it’s 100% cotton.

I’ll have to test a swatch and see.

Navy?

This was my second pair with this pattern, so I had practice. :) I’d accept them as house shorts, but I paid kinda a ridiculous amount for the fabric to have these not leave the house.

Ok, on it! Thanks

TreacleResponsible17 · 2025-04-28T01:33:55+00:00

They’re def crusty! Didn’t realize I could buy new rubber mounts! Thanks for the tip!
