    New server so time for an introduction! Often lost in my hobbies and sometimes this thing called life. Wandering through midlife and wondering how I got here. Late diagnosed AuDHD and a Scorpio. Cat and snail admirer. Looking to make friends and prefer to use Mastodon for the things I love. #introduction #NewHere #cats #snail #knitting #sewing #crochet #linocut #films #music

    #sewing friends!especially people who sew their own clothes:I want to sew my own PJ pantsI am plus sized & have long legs & a large bottom. (mens xl ish) these will be 100% cotton, so no stretch. I like loose & comfy, but not TOO loose or flowy & they MUST have pockets.what are your favorite patterns?

    And, at the end, quite sweet despite the patina of the era: "WHEN you have completed your dress, it may not be perfect in every respect, but if you have been careful, it will surely be very nice, and something of which you may be very proud, because it represents much care and thought.Finish it well to the last loop, and sew in the dress shields. Take out the basting threads, be sure that the seams are finished, and that it is all in “‘apple-pie order.”Don’t point out to people any defects that may exist.Do not lift up the overskirt to show that the underskirt is pieced down with goods of a different kind.Do not show that the under-arm pieces are faded.Do not tell anybody that the full front covers buttonholes that are torn out.Do not say that the beautiful bias band around the bottom of the skirt hides a ghastly muslin gap. --"

    @TazPoltorak I'd be quite wary of polar fleece (and synthetic wadding) melting at oven temperaturesif you have some wool scraps they may work instead of the thermo insulation, but maybe you'd need a bigger thinkness, and with cotton you'd definitely need more than either.
