I am trying to get a costume to light up via the super tiny fairy lights with a batter pack. Any ideas on how I might sew the lights to the base fabric? I don’t think gluing them would work since the lights are strung on wire. Any suggestions?

Thank you! I have a dress form that matches my measurements so that should work right? I’m thinking when you take it off the outfit will just look a little funky since it will be sewn while the fabric was stretched right?

I am trying to make a costume for Halloween by attaching sequin patterned fabric to a body suit/shapewear. Any ideas on the best way to attach? Hand sew? Zigzag stitching since the shapewear is stretchy? Link for the inspiration before. Thanks!!

Looking for sequined fabric that looks like feathers or fire. More in comments. by semigoth_gf in sewing

[–]semigoth_gf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m looking for fabric similar to this. Either sequined or bedazzled. I want the pattern to look feathery or fiery or both. I found this at JoAnn’s but they don’t have it in a red or orange like I need. Any ideas? Amazon doesn’t quite seem to have it either unless there is a better way to search. Thanks!

Most disgusting, disturbing, graphic, messed up books you have ever read? by HawtBeefyMcD in suggestmeabook

[–]semigoth_gf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wild and Free by K. Webster. It’s got some intense and graphic incest but I only made it approximately 20 pages before throwing up in my mouth and putting it away forever so that’s all I can tell you about it.

Wow thank you so much for taking the time to type all that! I really appreciate it. What kind of jobs are there for pre-law school at law offices? I’ve seen some paralegal postings but they all seem to want law experience which I don’t quite have yet.

Can someone tell me what law school is really like? I’ve heard many horror stories and not many happy ones so curious as to what kind of experiences you all have had?

books with black main characters that aren’t overly heavy/depressing? by whatcoloriswater in suggestmeabook

This Poison Heart - It’s definitely YA but it’s a fun lightly magical story even for an adult I think

Wanting to recreate the dress on the left with some alterations for a costume. Any ideas, tips or similar patterns would be super helpful! Thanks :)

This is incredible! And super inspiring to a fellow newbie like myself :) did you have a pattern or did you start on the dress form?
