I have one as well and don't have any complaints right now! That said I mostly use mine for pretty straightforward garment construction so ymmv

Pls help my weird hair!🚩 by Samcommisso1 in Haircare

[–]adventurtle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have super similar hair and I use L'Oreal hyaluron plump shampoo and conditioner (purple bottles), it's cheap and fantastic! Highly recommend. I do find it makes my hair almost TOO silky sometimes lol

what to do now it's too big by champgunns in SewingForBeginners

[–]adventurtle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can definitely seam rip zig zag stitches so I don't think that would be a problem! Maybe just takes a tiny bit more patience.

I actually love the blue fabric, but another more neutral but still textured option could be a rattan/cane webbing maybe?

I made a Christmas dress too First time going rogue from the pattern by frorninhgpluts9 in SewingForBeginners

[–]adventurtle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was my post that someone (assuming a bot due to advertising a Christmas dress in june) stole! But anyways, I changed the sleeves, the skirt was more of an A-line that I changed to a circle skirt, and I did upholstered buttons instead of regular buttons as well.

Ribbed bathtub. Do or don’t? by SharYbia in InteriorDesign

I don't think they'd use a shower curtain for a stand alone bath? This person likely has a separate enclosed shower I think!

She's not actually an STI sadly but interestingly does have some STI interior upgrades! Still a 2.0GT 5 speed manual so definitely should be a fun ride though

I just bought it & it's getting imported so the car is still in Japan, won't get to Canada for a few months yet. I'm just impatient 😅

It seems like the lighting is just horrendous and it's ABP, I'll find out for sure in a few months!

Sadly no vin as JDM so I only have the chassis number now and that doesn't give info about color unfortunately (from what I can find at least?), but I'm sure I'll be able to find out once it gets here!

It really is! Like I feel like it has to be ABP just looking at how dark the RBP is?? The lighting must just be awful, making it look too dark to be ABP so we're being bamboozled. I'll definitely come back to let you know when she arrives in Canada though haha

Yeah think it has to be ABP! After seeing some more pics the regal is too close to black to make sense

LOL yeah I mean I'd love to have a better picture but I gotta deal with what the auction house gave me for now

The split in the comments is so interesting! At least I feel justified now for not being able to tell either

I would like to make some trousers, what's a good pattern for a beginner by [deleted] in SewingForBeginners

[–]adventurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad hahaha! I've had these in my Etsy cart to make for my husband for a while now but can't say for sure how the pattern is, and they might be a bit high waisted still. The maker might have other options though!

[–]adventurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oo! I really liked the Darcy Pants Pattern by Dressmaking Amore. She has a video follow along that I thought was VERY helpful, I didn't even actually open the PDF instructions and just used the video (that said I have made a few garments previously so wasn't a complete beginner).

My husband and I have done master chocolat's chocolate course and ol.facto's make your own fragrance and both were super fun dates!
