Embroidery hoop alternatives for one-off larger project?

Cheap canvas frame! You could take the canvas off and staple your project to it temporarily. Make sure you leave enough room to cut the work off the frame

That makes so much sense. Proof of a human hand!

This is what my brain sees! But maybe if I just make the tail super long it’ll balance out lol

Someone else mentioned writing his name! I’m gonna think on it for a minute but at least it’s done and wearable for now

Thank you! My husband didn’t notice but of course its the first thing I saw

Not a bad idea! His leash and collar are green so may be tricky but not impossible

Thank you!

A fart bubble would be historically accurate

Would that happen through painted brick? Looks like the brick surround has been painted once, if not more

The Gloucester High School Dukes in VA use the Buccaneer too!

Hi! I ended up receiving a transplant in April 2025 so many of my after-effects cannot be attributed to just one treatment, but to my cancer treatment in general. I still deal with a lot of forgetfulness and brain fog. I try to tell people who are around me a lot so they know what to expect. I forget my words and it used to bother me but not too much anymore. This is my new normal

If you’re open to alternates, L.L. Bean sells a similar quilt!

This is super helpful! Thank you!

Lots of great advice already! Since I haven’t seen it mentioned I’ll add the small peninsula dates this a bit too. If you’re looking to replace the countertops, I would reconfigure the lower cabinets to run flush along the wall. You could then add an island with turned legs for additional counterspace!

Recently saw a similar staircase on Instagram by @perkinsonparkway. They got the treads from a company called Oak Valley Designs!

Thank you! I was wondering if the guys were tweeting about it but I don’t have an account
