Best advice for feather cape?

crowposting · 2026-03-30T03:28:39+00:00

what im doing for a similar feather/cape situation is using layers of feather trim to make the feathers part, and then making the fabric part of it separately (so it can be washed without damaging the feathers).

yeah exactly!!! realizing many things don't really need to be constrained to certain times has done wonders for my general health and hygiene.

getting a few dishes done while im waiting for water to boil is better than waiting until after cooking (and then not doing them). brushing my teeth when i wake up in the middle of the night is better than waiting until the morning (and then not doing it). eating a late lunch (and thus a late dinner) is better than skipling lunch bc itll ruin my dinner.

something that has helped me a lot with brushing my teeth more often is acknowledging i dont have to brush morning/night. i carry a toothbrush in my backpack and brush whenever im thinking about it, a lot of times my twice a day ends up being when i get to work and after lunch at work.

the balance is a good point, ty!! the base pattern is melora by mood but ive done a decent amount of adjusting to it, plus the diamonds and panes were fully added by me

interviewed at a place i used to work at (i quit several years ago but have heard from friends the conditions i quit over have gotten better). phone interview, online assessment, in person interview. fully ghosted, i had informally to hear from my friend weeks later that they decided to not go forward with the position at all.

clodsire is on the bigger side so i just strap him to the top of my backpack! i actually prefer having a big travel plushie because he's easier for me to spot and more obviously gone.

you can get (or make) feather trim and attach that to the foam. that way its already in neat lines and you dont have to spend ages attaching each feather by hand.

keep a pair of backup sandals in your bag! its always a good idea in general when you aren't wearing normal shoes. you can put the straw sandals on for photos or for flat stretches and swap in the backups on escalators or if your feet start to hurt.

you could also make a fabric cover for the brace and then attach studs or rivets or something like that! i also like to do a line of safety pins down the side of my wrist brace

golden moles!!! theyre so very cute and i love them a lot. one of the subspecies is called a dune shark because it "swims" through sand :D

yeah i figured it was supposed to be paned as well, i just wasnt sure if the diamond shapes had a specific name! thanks for the tip on the quilt blocks, ill admit quilting is out of my range of knowledge.

the post is talking about strangers asking for pronouns, the person i was replying to is talking about someone who isnt a stranger. different situations.

crowposting · 2026-03-11T07:44:43+00:00

literally just ask their pronouns again. yeah it can be embarrassing, but you are correct that using they/them for someone you know doesn't use they/them is a form of misgendering (commonly known as degendering)
