The Style Pile is BACK! ✂️ Ep. 23: Fixing a Damaged Sweater with Yarn Embroidery
Переглядів 54 тис.3 роки тому
Hello! I'm having a bit of a PILE CRISIS lately, as I have waaaaay too many scraps and thrifted clothes and half-finished projects that are beginning to TAKE OVER MY LIFE. So - join me as I resurrect the Style Pile! Episode 23 begins with a damaged sweater with far too much pilling on it, after I unsuccessfully removed a hideous applique. To save this sweater top, I'm going to use yarn embroide...

I Try Needle Felting.
Переглядів 51 тис.3 роки тому
Remember traveling? 🥺 In this video I try needle felting for the first (and last) time. Am I just bad at it, or do all first attempts look like this? Regardless, judging by how often I stabbed myself, I think this craft might not be so good for my... health and safety, lol. Can any of you do needle felting? And does it require more patience then I have? Why was it so hard?? 🥺😳😤 SUPPORT MY VIDEO...

Learning from Sewing Disasters.

*felt self-loathing might delete later* I've been struggling a lot with motivation and negative-self-talk about all my sewing projects lately. So instead of hiding away that struggle...

Thank you to Squarespace for being cool with me making the weirdest ads ✌️ Tailornova is similar to other existing custom-pattern software like Lekala, in that it creates patterns based on your own measurements.

    I have a friend who shared some of her first responses to people who ask her "what happened???" Or "what did you do???" When theyd see her with her big giant leg braces. With a total poker face she says "yeah i really should have remembered the parachute when i jumped out of that plane" or "well that lap dance with the six inch heels..." obviously depends on the situation, but for her she was able to just laugh and turn the energy around. I still struggle with that feeling like i must have done something to myself, which is obviously insane, but then i end up thinking "maybe im just too weak and i should be tougher about the pain and push through" (which ends in total disaster). Thanks for bringing awareness and for sharing your experiences

    Okay I really thought this was going to be super complicated but it’s kinda simple! I’m getting into Lolita and I cannot afford Angelic Pretty dresses so I’m sewing my dresses for now 💀 And what do you know, most Lolita has shirring in the back. Yes, I could choose to just not shirr it. But! The problem is! The shirring looks so cute!

  • @ellyonart_

    You are supposed to put a backing on the back side afterwards and glue it down, also trim the excess threads. The ''nice'' side is meant to be trimmed to give it a fluffy look.

    I have been using a cane/stick for almost 16 years now, and some folks just think it is part of my overall look, yeah my cane/stick has a skull on top of it, but as some one I worked with put it - if you have to use a cane/stick you may as well look good doing so, and most of the bods who thought my cane/stick was part of my look work at the jobcentre, well until I point out just why I use my cane/stick and they see my needing to walk with it

    I can only imagine how going out in mobility aids can be tiresome for people with invisible illnesses. I have suffered a major injury in both my legs that caused me to have to relearn how to walk, i had to use a walking frame everytime i got out and oh my god do people stare, it is very tiresome and made me want to punch someone in the face, and dont even get me started on the lack of acess to most places, i literally had to be in the middle of the road when i gone out with a wheelchair just from how impossible it was for it to be on the sidewalk :/

I wish I was in the same position, but I cant, i have chronic pain but I still need to work (if I could only get a new job…) i live with my parents but i really don’t want to, i want my daughter and i to be able to move out asap.
