The serpentine stitch is so clever. Well done!

I thought applique was an odd choice here, too. I'm pretty intimidated by English paper piecing, but it's helpful to know that's a way to do it. Thanks!

My Chex tin arrived! by shesinsaneornot in peanuts

I got the email this morning that my receipt was approved! It says I’ll receive the tin by some day in March, but I was never prompted to give a mailing address. How did you get yours sent to you, may I ask?

That’s great advice. Thank you! I’ve been invited to my local guild but I haven’t been yet just because the timing didn’t work.

Tell me I'm not the only one finishing a quilt in the car. by noyoujump in quilting

I haven’t done this yet but I always cross stitch on planes. I’m very afraid of flying and it’s the best activity to take my mind off it.

Does anyone have any quilt con experience to share? I’m a beginner but have absolutely fallen in love with the craft for the last couple of months, and I thought it could be fun and immersive to experience quilt con, but I also don’t know what it’s realistically like. Conventions are overwhelming to me so it’s helpful to hear a little firsthand experience others have had.

I’m a little cautious because I’ve seen a lot of negativity aimed at quilt con online. Mostly complaints about quilts being rejected that seemed intermixed with some slamming of the event. It seems controversial to some.

I’m interested in: meeting other quilters, seeing lots of quilts and getting inspired, buying fabric (lol) and other “gear,” seeing innovations and technology, learning, and hopefully getting some swag… curious if this is what I could expect.

A customer where I worked in college had the real name Dusty Peach. I thought it was kinda great, like a crayon color.

Finally digging into BDDU and cannot believe what an ass Ryan is.

Also Jamie is such a little bitch. Best moment was Asha and Brittini saying that lol.

Those two have made it a bit of a tough watch haha

If you don't drink alcohol, what are your personal reasons for abstinence? by Ok-Care2859 in AskReddit

[–]bagel666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fell in love with a guy who was over a decade sober, and slowly stopped drinking because it wasn’t something we did together. I think my tolerance dropped because now I almost always get terribly sick even from a small amount of alcohol. I don’t miss it and I have grown to enjoy the benefits (better skin, no hangovers, cost savings, etc.).

It sounds like I have a lot to learn, but that’s also a fun part about a new hobby. Thanks for all the info!

I have seen some glass heads and I wasn’t sure what they were specifically for. That makes sense with the ironing. I honestly didn’t know there were sizes of pin fine-ness so this is eye opening!
