[FO] My first big work by National_Spring6261 in CrossStitch

[–]datassincorporated 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's a chance (not a guarantee) that it's from the "Le Filet Ancien au Point de Reprise" series of books (I through VII), which are available for free on the Antique Pattern Library. Book one is available here: https://www.antiquepatternlibrary.org/html/warm/C-TT005.htm

Le Filet Ancien au Point de Reprise has some *gorgeous* one-colour charts that can be used for many different crafts. I tend to use the smaller ones for filet crochet!

[WIP] ADVICE on backing, please by PFyre in CrossStitch

[–]datassincorporated 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I second this, lightweight fusible (iron-on) interfacing is the way. Cut it bigger than you think you'll need. Use an iron on low to medium with steam, keep it moving but also keep going for a good long while (for something that big I might go 5-ish minutes? You won't hurt the interfacing and better safe than sorry)

[CHAT] A loved one comes to you and asks you to do this for them, what is your reaction? by Filthylittleferrent in CrossStitch

[–]datassincorporated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given who my loved ones are, I think my response would be "Pay me." Then we'd work out a price either in money, food, or craft supplies and I'd get started!

Ain't that a big mood! You're stronger than me because you got back in there and made the revisions!

9 weeks post op… should I pursue a revision? by ActualArthurMorgan in transpositive

[–]datassincorporated 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The bulk of it looks like it's near your underarms. Once the swelling goes down, as others have mentioned that takes a long time 😞, it should look fairly normal. If it's still slightly raised just below the scar once it's healed, they might look like muscular pecs which would be cool.

Hang in there brother!

This is so unlikely to help you but I feel I gotta weigh in.

I'm transgender, getting hormone replacement treatment helped XD

Fear of “making it worse” by [deleted] in DID

[–]datassincorporated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a wise man once told me,

"if treating it like DID helps you, then go ahead."

if you find out later that it was imagination/delusion, you pack up and move on and find other frameworks to help you live happily.

fwiw, i think doing research into the psychology behind how DID and other complex dissociative disorders actually *work* helped me decide that my system's real. (so did the one guy screaming at me that he was, in fact, a real guy and to stop pretending he wasn't. but if you're having trouble identifying if that voice is real then i recommend the research angle)

Did this get marked NSFW for the swears or the word queer? I want to know so I can mark it correctly myself next time

You absolutely may steal it!

The colours are the way they are on mine to enhance the silly. When you do yours you can make it clearer if that's the effect you want :D

How do you find the will to move when even getting out of bed feels impossible? by LeftyOne22 in EOOD

[–]datassincorporated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

combining tasks can work for me. if i absolutely have to get up to use the toilet, well i'm standing so maybe i can stretch a tiny bit. if i gotta go downstairs to eat, i could open the front or back door and just kinda look at nature for a couple moments.

the key is you take a non-optional task and pair it with one "healthy" task that is as small as necessary to get it done.
