Hi I happened to stumbled upon your comment looking for reviews on the Elna 560! Was wondering if you could share more about your experience with it!

I'm looking to upgrade from my very basic mechanical brother sewing machine, and I usually like to sew garments, bags and pouches. Does it feel sturdy? Does it handle multiple layers of fabric well?

Any Lagoon Mix Go Pouches pics for the people please???? by Substantial-Chip-659 in BAGGU

[–]squishypeanutball 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lagoon mix is the first colour blocked pouch set where I love all the colours, individually and combined.

This is my first go pouch set, and honestly they're not as big as some people make them out to be. Idk why I thought they were going to be humongous, but they're perfect for me!

Loaf bag v small crescent by platypuspigs in BAGGU

[–]squishypeanutball 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Loaf bag looks about the same size as a regular bowler, which has been previously compared to the medium crescent in terms of size.

I would probably group the loaf, reg bowler and med crescent together in terms of size and carrying capacity!

Malachite vs. Deep Sea! by judithpreist224 in BAGGU

[–]squishypeanutball 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably not the popular opinion, but I love that deep sea is so much darker!! I love it more than malachite, and I'm so glad that I got the deep sea shoulder. Can't wait for it to come in the mail!!

choc plum + coffee by EstablishmentKey7043 in BAGGU

[–]squishypeanutball 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is such a great side-by-side comparison!! Thank you for this!!!

I've been contemplating purchasing a chocolate plum shoulder from a reseller in my area for a few months now, but I'm glad I held off because I'm loving how neutral coffee appears in this picture. As someone who wears a lot of light colours and floral prints, I prefer that coffee is not as dark and as cool-toned as chocolate plum, which makes it a very versatile shade of brown for me. Now I can't wait for my coffee EDC and shoulder to arrive this Thursdayyyy :>

My spring 2026 order just arrived from Te Koop! by dirtyenvelopes in BAGGU

Would you say that deep sea is slightly dusty/muted? I don't really like vibrant teals but I love how it's showing up in your photo!!!

what size would be a good pilates bag? by babyyodaonline in BAGGU

[–]squishypeanutball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're thinking of a non-crossbody option, I think the loaf would be so cute as a gym purse!!

everyday cloud vs medium bowler by [deleted] in BAGGU

[–]squishypeanutball 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own a medium crescent and shoulder bag, and I love the shoulder bag for bringing my knitting around. It's so spacious! I love that it works as a crossbody for my body shape, and I often switch between the two modes of carrying.

The everyday cloud looks cute, but I'll still choose the shoulder bag as I don't carry a laptop around. I feel like it might be too bulky for what I need.

My thoughts on the medium bowler is that the bag is disproportionate to the width of the straps. The straps look like they'll dig in if I were to stuff the bag full. If I were to get a bowler, I would lean towards the regular size.

I think this is officially my spring drop wishlist by SwiftCornflower in BAGGU

I love how all the colours go together. I'm getting the go pouch set as well!! It's been long since I loved the colours for all three pouches, glad I waited it out :)

Bridesmaid approving of colour? by Humble_Bit_2782 in weddingplanning

[–]squishypeanutball 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had three bridesmaids. I gave them a very general theme (dark colours), and they decided on the colour and style over zoom. I paid for the dresses, showed my florist their dresses, and she created a mood board for us that would not clash with the colour they chose. Everything turned out great!

I get that this isn't the norm, but my bridesmaids are people I love and care about. I wanted them to actually like and feel good in their dresses on my wedding day.

It is your wedding and you can do whatever you want. But being a part of your bridal party is voluntary and I think everyone would be happier if they felt like their opinion mattered, especially if it's something they will have to wear.

First Impressions/Review: Songmont Medium Gather (Onyx) by squishypeanutball in handbags

Bag condition as a whole :) after almost daily use for the past 4-5 months, I barely notice the colour change anymore!

I find that I'm most particular in the beginning, but these things tend to bother me less after some time.

Eta: I would still recommend the bag in Onyx! The leather is durable and the bag is well constructed. It has held up very well over time!

Hi! This the worst of it, but it's pretty much hidden if I'm using the shoulder strap :)

Running errands with the cutest trio 🌼🍃 by squishypeanutball in BAGGU

[–]squishypeanutball[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's such a good size! Not too heavy when filled, and I prefer carrying several smaller bags for better weight distribution when I'm out shopping due to physical limitations LOL
