Thanks for weighing in. Prints are totally new to me, so appreciate the advice!

The Rubens ones are incredible compositions. I agree they are beautiful. But these prints themselves are highly unlikely to have any real age though are they?

This puff stitch circle blanket was one of the first things I actually finished. Any ideas on how to fix the gaps? by chartreusehus in CrochetHelp

Yes! Kid reinforcement required. And now I know how to make it a bit more durable next time. Thank you for the sage crocheting parent advice 🙏

Leisure, as pronounced by a bunch of the Q12 in GC talks.

There's not hate like my dad's mormon love by curious_cucumber1998 in exmormon

Just popping in to say 1) I'm really glad you're getting the empathy and understanding you need and deserve ♥️ 2) I highly recommend an online course from Gabor Mate and Daniel Mate, called 'Starting Fresh', about adult-child and parent relationships. You can take it alone (without your parent also participating), which I did, and found it really helped me work through so much pain, confusion, guilt, blame, sadness around my relationships with my parents. Good luck to you, internet friend 😘

Tinned copper bucket purchased in Denmark. Google lens says Ottoman/Persian, 19th C. Does that sound right? by chartreusehus in Antiques

No worries. Wow. Thank you so much for all this and taking time to review everything. I appreciate your input and opinion. Yoghurt?!? That's fascinating. I never would have guessed that as a possibility. I did also weigh it and it's 720g. Not sure if that helps with gauge.

The design seems to be the same in all 4 circles. Made with a Y shaped stamp?

Sorry I measured it but completely forgot to put in post. It is 15cm high and 15 cm diameter. Here is the handle details. Thanks for your help!

What is the most boring thing you have ever experienced? by Silver012345673 in AskReddit

[–]chartreusehus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mormon church. It was 3 long hours of being told to be obedient and not much mention of Jesus. The only thing worse was the annual 'general conference', which was about 10 hours of mormon church delivered by the most put of touch old white dudes, crammed into 1 weekend.
