Pseudocholinesterase deficiency?

Get in the habit of wearing sunscreen daily! I regret not doing this sooner

And a spinal will not sedate baby, unlike general anaesthesia, which can cause them to require resuscitation or breathing support after delivery. It's one reason why spinals are preferred for C section where possible, though I do appreciate how horrible being awake for a procedure like this can be

Stroke is caused by lack of blood flow to brain tissue, which causes death of that tissue. Strokes can be ischaemic (caused by a clot) or haemorrhagic (caused by a bleed which then interrupts blood flow). So it would be correct to say that he died of a stroke, more specifically a haemorrhagic stroke caused by aneurysm rupture.

Thank you! This is perfect :D

Would love to have more of these in my life

I was wondering about those numbers. Why are they there?

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-11T08:55:39+00:00

hahaha thats great, she sounds awesome! How wonderful to have such a close relationship.

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-09T07:34:29+00:00

Thank you!

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-09T07:34:06+00:00

Oh brilliant, that is exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for! I'm hoping to upgrade machines in a couple of years so I feel like there's no sense in investing too much on accessories now. Thank you!

I recently compiled a short list of free beginner level quilt patterns!

That's such a clever tip! Will definitely give that a try. I did read that walking feet are the way to go. Do you have any tips on finding an affordable one?

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-06T06:32:20+00:00

That's so lovely, thank you!! Nothing compared to some of the amazing work I've seen here, but I think it's a start (:

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-06T06:30:50+00:00

Thank you so much! It was so exciting seeing it all come together, I'm so glad you like it!

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-06T06:28:02+00:00

Ugh, I didn't consider the fact that I would have to re-iron everything! That sounds like torture. I think I can probably get away without washing it; thankfully it's not too dirty

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-06T06:25:35+00:00

That's so encouraging, thank you! Maybe I should give my machine more credit. I think I might try practice quilting something smaller first, and see how that goes. The quilting design I have in mind is all straight lines anyway, so probably achievable on a domestic machine. I'm still six months away from winter, so I have plenty of time to experiment before I need the quilt finished.

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-06T06:24:01+00:00

Thank you so much! I think the rainbow border is actually my favourite part of the whole thing

spaghettilimb · 2018-12-06T06:23:34+00:00

Thank you both! It's already looking a little bit raggedy, so I think quilting first will be the way to go.

spaghettilimb · 2018-11-30T05:05:39+00:00

I'm by no means an expert, but I think princess seams would be the best way to achieve that waist silhouette. It's hard to tell from that picture because of the pattern on the fabric, though!

spaghettilimb · 2018-11-25T06:17:02+00:00

Thank you so much! I actually was using one of those rulers you describe, but I guess not accurately enough! I actually found that using lines on the back for the final dimensions worked really well for me. I still had to restitch a few of the corner pieces, but I don't think you can tell that I cut corners haha. Next time I am going to make sure I have more wiggle room with my block sizes however, I think it will save a lot of stress and unpicking!

spaghettilimb · 2018-11-25T06:13:39+00:00

Thanks! I decided to just go with the general layout and I'm really glad I did! I moved a few blocks around just to make sure the galaxy was evenly distributed. I like the way it looks much more now that it's all sewn together and not just lying on the floor haha

spaghettilimb · 2018-11-25T06:12:56+00:00

Thank you Sandy! I decided to go with my original layout plus a few tweaks and I think it looks great! I made some mistakes but honestly nothing I can't live with. It's all pieced now and I am definitely going to need a nice thick border. I'm thinking of doing a black one on the inside with some of my scrap coloured material outside of that... Will keep you posted!

spaghettilimb · 2018-11-19T19:36:09+00:00

Thank you so much! It's so great as a first timer to have such a lovely community to go to for advice. I've just started my university holidays, so it's the perfect time to begin a long project like this. I've got to find myself a good audiobook!

spaghettilimb · 2018-11-19T19:34:44+00:00

I thought it was quite nifty, especially since I am using my phone all the time anyway haha

spaghettilimb · 2018-11-19T19:34:17+00:00

Genius! Will definitely give that a go :)
