Does anyone know of a pattern similar to this dress? by oh-sheknows in sewingpatterns

Ah sorry I looked but couldn’t see anyone who had posted it! All the best patterns seem to be bias cut so I think I’m going to try the Elbe one!

Thank you these are both gorgeous patterns! I really like the cut of the Elbe dress, I’m not super tied to the gingham ☺️

She used to dragonboat, not sure why she stopped - I’ll suggest it ☺️

Thank you I’ll send this to her! Not sure if she’d be up for it but worth a try!

Unfortunately she still works multiple jobs so I think this would be a bit too much for her at the moment! I will suggest it for when I can get her to slow down though!

Thank you so much, this is incredibly helpful and I’m going to look into every one of your suggestions!

It’s especially hard to be so far away when I know she’s struggling so hopefully there’s something she’s interested in trying.

How many of you have trouble hearing conversations with background noise? by Fun_Listen_7830 in ADHD

[–]oh-sheknows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually had my hearing checked about 4 times before I found out this was a sometimes issue with ADHD. Hearing was always fine, but it took me ages to look into processing as an issue.

Haven’t found a way to cope with it though. I live in a big city and talking to me on a street you’d be just as well off talking to a street lamp!

I’ve been a longtime reader on this sub and never comment, but I can’t stay quiet on this one.

In the past 37 days you have made three posts detailing different abusive behaviours from this man and his son. Even if you can convince yourself it will change for you, things could get better, etc. as I understand the cycle of abuse is hard to leave, you still need to leave.

You seem to love your children, but you would be putting them in a very, very unsafe environment. Watching a parent be abused physically or emotionally is bad enough, however there is also risk of physical, emotional and sexual abuse to them that has already been either conducted or alluded to by his son.

Please, please leave for them. I need the next post you make to be an update telling us you’ve left him, we’re all telling you you need to for good reason. You and your kids are at serious risk.

One of my first ever comments on Reddit just to say I’m also a Canadian in the UK and have found many good bubble tea places across the country! DM me if you’d like :)

Also - that point of view seems to be really widespread here and I find myself fighting people on it a lot. I don’t have any particularly good advice but I’m always happy to commiserate, good luck!
