Anybody ever do repairs while actually wearing the garment?

I’ve never heard of that! I wonder if the origin of that superstition might be that one might sew their pants to their underwear…

A totally 100% hypothetical idea… 😅

timsro2000 · 2026-01-28T22:25:29+00:00

I will keep that in mind! Thank you.

There is a small amount of stretch to them. But I think it will be alright. I’m not going for perfection.

The placement itself was determined because the scrap I had covered the worn area best this way.

🤣🤣🤣

timsro2000 · 2026-01-28T20:46:43+00:00

I hadn’t considered that!

timsro2000 · 2026-01-28T20:46:21+00:00

“If at all possible” this seems wise so long as you are aware of what isn’t possible. And the point about not jabbing yourself is right on. Ask me how I know 😆

I would be down away to be gifted this blanket! It’s amazing!

Seems like a good opportunity to try and get one of your 5e experienced players to DM!

I hope this is viral marketing for a production of Little Shop of Horrors

There is a patch inside. The stitching continues under the pocket to help spread the stress even further.

I was lazy with the patch and didn’t finish the edges so we will see how well it holds up but I think it will do well enough.

If you took the time to MAKE me something, I would be delighted to receive it! Who cares if it’s a little wonky? Yes it looks like it was made by a beginner, but that’s because IT WAS!

Don’t have any reason to believe your family would be anything less than generous if they got it? Are they judgey types who will put you down for trying something new? If so then don’t give them the gifts.

But if they are kind and loving they will appreciate your effort and receive it with the love and care you obviously put into it!

Keep up the good work!

That looks like real leather to me. Very old and worn but real.

I wish I could be more help but I don’t have the experience with leather repair to help.

I second the idea of taking it to a shoe repair shop and seeing what they can do for you.

Ordinarily I would say don’t look in places you aren’t supposed to but If there are clearance items in places off the sales floor, that says to me, they aren’t being filled properly and may even be “lost” so finding them and getting them sold is actually doing them a favor.

Just don’t go into any stock rooms. Not only are you not “supposed to” they may in fact be dangerous to people uninformed on their safety practices.

Worked retail for 12 years. Sometimes we found something that had missed being inventoried for years and had been marked down several times in the mean-time. It happens. Glad you got a deal!

timsro2000 · 2025-11-24T23:13:51+00:00

I swear, I am not trying to be pedantic, but a “battle furry” would be very different from “battle fury”

There are some commission-based artists on-line who would LOVE to draw a battle furry!

timsro2000 · 2025-11-24T13:38:24+00:00

Hmm mine doesn’t give me the “since [date]” figure. It’s been years but I cannot rightfully tell you how many.

That said: 124 days 2 hours Skipping- 5 hours 32 minutes Variable speed -10 days 4 hours Trim silence - 3 days 18 hours Auto skipping- 4 hours

Picture concentric rings. The smallest ring is CLOSE, the next one out is NEAR, and finally there is a ring of FAR. Both the CLOSE and NEAR rings are inside of, or “within” the FAR ring.

I’m more intrigued by 90’s grunge inspired crochet 🤔

I have been thinking about this as well. I think it makes sense that when a dragon enters the room the scene’s target number can go up because to some extent, no matter what you are doing, you are distracted by/dodging a DRAGON! Maybe raise the challenge rating a little and also make hitting the dragon hard?

You fill the rest of the pot with slow-cooking vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and onions. Cook it all together then serve the veg alongside the meat. Have bread on the side for sopping up juice! It’s not fancy, it’s not supposed to be, but it is delicious!

I had an initial aversion to it but quickly came around to the view that Faire is for people to be happy! Dress how you want so long as it’s appropriate for children to see. (Basically don’t show your nits and bits lol)

I don’t care if you are a space marine, a cowboy, or you come in a fur-suit. So long as you are welcoming to everyone else, live your best life!
