I'm going to keep this short, because I could talk about it all day, but basically, my husband and I came into hard times almost a year ago, so we moved into his mother's house. His mother, I hate to say, is overbearing and very controlling. She has had me on edge quite a few...

So I very recently cut my hair. This is the shortest I've ever had it. And I didn't really think I would EVER cut my hair this short, but I love it. The only thing is I want different ways to style it so it doesn't look the same every day. I kinda slicked it back in the...

Does anyone know if there is a machine out there that does embroidery that I wouldn't have to mortgage my house to be able to afford it? And what is the difference between an embroidery machine with one head or two? Any links or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Dar

So I just made a tutu yesterday, simple tying of the tulle onto elastic, and when I went to take it off the knots began to move around the making areas more or less covered. I was wondering if there was something I could do to prevent that. Luckily this was a practice run...

Ok so I'm a bit shaky from what just went down. My best friend and I like to drive around our city at night for a little bit and listen to music and we most often end up parking somewhere public and turning off the car and we people watch and talk and listen to music - it...

Hi, Completely new to this forum bit on the website so hopefully someone will find this and give me some info. A while ago I bought 3 strappy, stretchy tops from Primark - didn't try them on in the shop (as the queues in Primark are aweful! and didn't have a spare day to bring...

So last night my boyfriend asked if we could go as an Angel and a Knight a'la Romeo and Juliet. [IMG]http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h287/pinkweeds/romeo-and-juliet.jpg[/IMG] This is pretty much going to be an easy DIY for his chain mail and my dress but I am completely...

Well, I know Christmas is a ways off but I always start planning around October due to my complete lack of decisions (I can't even decide if my favorite color is blue or pink XD) so I'm starting way early this year. I figured I'd go by age for presents, so first up is my...

Since ages I wanted to have my own "how to sew plushies book" ... and at the moment I am preparing myself again to try it and hopefully to find a German Publishing house who enjoys to publish such a book. For me it would be interesting, if my Tutorials are understandable for...
