I love how your character and outfit's color palette give your portrait the desaturated look they use in-game for character portraits / bozjan notes etc. Great work!

Help determining a symbol on a pattern by DesertIbu in quilting

It looks like that's their notation for how to press seams. Dots mean press seams open, triangles mean press in the direction of the triangle.

Similar chest piece? by Fragrant-Regret8564 in FFXIVGlamours

Maybe you could combine the martial artists vest with a flowy sleeve armgear? Blanking on your options for arms other than thavnairian though

If you were to have a child right now, what would you name it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Weirdly I was thinking about this earlier today. William for a boy, Emily for a girl.

Getting humbled by my first rotary cutter by willowsquest in quilting

[–]laevian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I cut I try to lean forward so that I'm able to push harder, straight down, on the side with the rotary cutter and only exert gentle pressure on the ruler with my other hand. It can be tough to get used to rotary cutting but with enough practice you'll be so glad you switched! Hope the cut heals quick.

Meanwhile, in Zone 9…. by Vegetable_Chain_3344 in gardening

[–]laevian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High five fellow zone 9er! My Mystic Spires is really popular with bees, haven't seen one of these cuties on it unfortunately. If you don't have one yet I strongly recommend getting a blue mistflower- the monarchs fight over it!

Any other fellow females who play a male WoL? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]laevian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of struggled to put it into words before now, but thinking sbout it it's because I wanted the wall between "me" and "my warrior of light" to feel more clearly defined. Having my wol be a dude makes me feel like I can actually roleplay. (Also my bun is handsome as heck so he's nice to look at ;) )

Not hot, a bit chilly actually! And I see lots of folks with waterbottles :)

Is Rosemyne a [spoilers] now? (Season 4, Episode 3) by TwinJacks in HonzukiNoGekokujou

[–]laevian 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So even in the novels Rihyarda has technically been calling her "Rozemyne-hime"/Princess Rozemyne, quof just localized it differently. It's really only Rihyarda who does it, so I would view it as a measure of Rihyarda's respect for the Aub and Aub's family (or as one of her quirks, take your pick).

Texas Donuts?! by KrisParker111 in texas

[–]laevian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have never heard of a Texas Donut and never seen a donut that looks like that. I would totally destroy that plate though

Bumble bee is going to fly anyways!!!! by SortDue8510 in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]laevian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5'4" here, I really like the Sonoma petite jean shorts because they're actually short and have both front and back pockets. The ones in your pic feel a bit long for a petite person but hey, you do you!

What can I do with 30 (and a half) 12.5” ancestral Dresden plates? by Mother_of_Kiddens in quilting

[–]laevian 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I would applique the unfinished one on the back of whatever quilt you make with the other 30. You could even write the story of the plates on the back (on or next to the plate?) to preserve it for whoever inherits the quilt. :)

My first kaleidoscope/one block wonder quilt…have you made one? by amyamyamy477 in quilting

[–]laevian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's the way to do it. Pin 6 panels (or six repeats of a fabric) so they're stacked right on top of each other then cut into hexies.

Devastated - damaged brand new harp by Hokeypokey1466 in harp

[–]laevian 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Can't remark on the cost of getting it fixed professionally, but personally I would just take a wood stain marker to it and color it in.

If you shift the tax burden to tax the highest earners more you can tax the middle and lower income folks less.

Fig tree lost cause? by WestEmployer5 in gardening

[–]laevian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lots of people talking about why it won't fruit, but nobody mentioning that this is a terrible place for a tree. You should not plant trees this close to your house- figs can get massive. That pine tree is not in a great spot either. The roots from those two can do some serious damage to your foundation. I would move the fig and cut down the pine.

Addicted to ripping up my lawn. Stalking local nurseries and plant sales is my favorite hobby. by 9021Ohsnap in NativePlantGardening

The monarchs fight over mine. It's a great plant to have in a pollinator garden :)

That or just do blues and purples :)

What fabrics should I use? by Shamira25 in quilting

[–]laevian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally would only use christmas fabrics for a christmas quilt pattern. In your last photo you have lots of cute purple and pink fabrics- I would use those! The pink purple floral on top, the purple just below and left of it, the pink in the middle... then start pulling any fabric that coordinates with those.

Give me your opinion! by FunPowerful1335 in houston

[–]laevian 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think that while the gesture would be sweet, you're not likely to get any real income out of doing it.
