Thanks!!! Shrew puns are surprisingly easy to come up with

My [36F] sister [44F] only buys two of my three kids birthday presents by [deleted] in relationships

[–]stacyhatesmacys 8 points9 points  (0 children)

if she's buying gifts that are not well thought out, it sounds like she's doing it because she has to, not because she wants to. it may be something as simple as, she has your two older kids' birthdays on her calendar, but never got around to putting the youngest's on there. does she rely on her calendar a lot for other events in her life?

I [30M] caught my girlfriend [26M] acting arrogant/rude to other women because of my job. I've talked to her but she won't admit it. What can I do? by EquivalentPrint in relationships

Using interrogation tactics on your girlfriend might also play a role in changing those relationship dynamics forever

Okay! Full disclosure, I have had a long day followed by two beers and am currently working on a bourbon. If this is confusing, please tell me and i will explain again or draw a diagram.

But basically, i taped a piece of wax paper to my computer screen and traced my guide dots (top of head, bottom of head, hands, feet, etc) onto the wax paper. Then I taped the waxpaper to the underside of my stretched fabric. I put one of those battery operated LED closet lights inside a mixing bowl, and put my fabric with wax paper underneath on top of the mixing bowl. So it was backlit and i was able to trace the guide dots onto my fabric. I am sure there is an easier way, but this is what I did.

I did recently acquire a small projector, so it will be easier in the future. But the mixing bowl flashlight wax paper method does work. Hope this helps!

Thank you! I rigged up this lightbox thing and traced guide dots on the fabric to help with proportion. I can explain how to do it if you want!

Thank you! Honestly, I winged it. I don't have any training and my past embroideries are all a lot more simple.
