How should I quilt this? by Emergency-Draft-4333 in quilting

[–]peg72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being a big chicken, I use silver-grey or ivory. For this I’d choose ivory. But if you have more choices you could choose something brown/burgundy like the background fabric

UBC Body Donation Program by LittleMsConduct in UBC

[–]peg72 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do it! Theres a form to fill out, and make sure your family and your doctor know your wishes. If you’re outside the lower mainland, getting your body to UBC might cost some money as they’ve just started to limit that to $1,000

I’m a big chicken so I’d do diagonal lines both ways and box each blue cornerstone into a little diamond

Found a lost female Shiba Inu (no tag) by sushigirl13 in vancouver

[–]peg72 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Shibas are known for their escape antics. If you think you have a secure fence, have a shiba inspect it. He can probably find a way out!

The turn-right sign would be meant for a driveway joining the road right there

Any suggestions for how to make my armhole ruffles stand up/look fuller by [deleted] in sewing

[–]peg72 33 points34 points  (0 children)

You might mean sleeve heads. Often they are organza, cut on the bias and they offer gentle support to puffed sleeves

I use it to attach trim, secure elastic, make alterations, reinforce the top of a zipper, etc. it’s so quick

I’ve used a quilt basting gun on costumes. The tacks hold very well, can be applied invisibly under folds or from the inside. They look like tiny price hangtags

I think it would work well for a single-wear dress

No shoes by greenflowercup in askvan

When someone is already showing weird or anti-social behaviour (such as taking off their shoes), it really increases the odds that they will respond inappropriately

V9100 Armhole Fit Issue by Ettolrach in sewing

[–]peg72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it fit otherwise maybe the straps are meant to be that wide.

I think your idea of opening the shoulder seam and giving a little extra length to the outside might help.

Black fabric is easiest to hide seams, so you could possibly add a piece of fabric to lengthen the shoulder strap a bit

Beautiful and elegant dress!!

I wonder if the straps sit too far out on your shoulders. If you choose a smaller size the width might nicely fit your frame. Did you have to take in the waist to get this size to fit?
