So, I just had the following realization: 1) Fencing jackets and pants are made out of white cotton twill. 2) Said jackets are usually several hundred dollars. 3) In the US, where I live, Joann Fabrics (a big box fabric and craft store) sells the twill for the jackets at about $13 a yard, less if it's on sale. 4) The pattern for a fencing jacket is just a slightly more complicated side zip moto jacket. And there are *quite* a few available. Is the pattern itself from an Etsy cosplay-focused site? Yes. Do I care? No. 5) I have a sewing machine.'

Therefore, I can just make my own gear for about 40 bucks. Am I going to attempt the lame, the glove, or the helmet? NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT. Am I also going to investigate my fabric options first to see how close they are? Yes. Am I going to recommend that you do this? No. Not until I risk myself for this. Is this also probably going to be another reason I do epee? Yeah.

AkkTheo celebrating a romantic Christmas in Paris~

Prior to his time in France, Akk knew that Christmas was a largely commercial holiday in many countries. Sure it had many more connotations in those countries; a time of being together with family and friends, gathering to share warmth and light in the cold dark, and most importantly the sharing of kindness and generosity. But in Thailand where the bulk of individuals were Buddhist and there was never much of anything in the way of a winter wonderland, the most Akk looked forward to were the Christmas lights in the mall along with cotton fluff snow and maybe a present if his other friends were in the mood to exchange.

So upon moving to Paris for his program and staying with Theo, Akk had a feeling Theo would be more excited for Christmas. The other boy had spent many of his formative years in France, living with a different culture, so naturally, his affinity for the winter holiday would be different than Akk's.

Akk did not anticipate the degree to which he would be correct.

Winter came swiftly upon the European city and Theo was already prepared with piles of sweaters, warm coats, scarves, hats, and gloves. All of which were shared with Akk, who had come completely unprepared for the cold.

"I thought we were going back to Thailand for the winter," Akk groused as he huddled down into his borrowed scarf which smelled like Theo's expensive cologne.

"We'll go back for the new year," Theo promised as he reached for Akk's gloved hand which was further stuffed into a jacket pocket. "I want you to experience Christmas here with me! We'll get mulled wine, gingerbread cookies, maybe make a croquembouche and decorate it like a Christmas tree..." Theo rambled on and Akk took a mental snapshot of Theo's sparkling eyes against the backdrop of nighttime Paris, awash in the gold and red of Christmas lights. It would have had to be a color print, Akk decided, for only then could the wash of colors in Theo's brown hair be truly appreciated.

As Christmas approached, Akk watched as lights went up in their shared apartment along with a genuine pine tree that Theo bought from a tree lot and had Akk help him drag up the three flights of stairs. The entire apartment was filled with the smell of pine which made Akk sneeze until he acclimated. Boxes of old ornaments from Theo's grandmother were brought out and Theo told Akk the story of each ornament painted by a child Theo.

Their date nights after classes were spent going to shops to see their Christmas displays. Gifts on sale were purchased for family along side cups of warm mulled wine as Theo promised. Akk made a particular attempt to keep his gift secret, waiting for Theo to wander off to the other side of the jewelry shop before purchasing it.

Instead of gingerbread cookies, Theo could only find ginger snaps filled with bourbon cream which Akk found overly sticky and sweet, until he had one with extra bourbon and sprinkled with a hint of nutmeg. Dark chocolate oranges, however, became Akk's favorite holiday treat as opposed to Theo's preference for peppermint bark.

Christmas day itself was spent with a late morning, Akk refused to get out of their warm bed to face the cold morning, but emerged once Theo made coffee. Afternoon lunch was cold sandwiches as they both worked to prepare their private holiday dinner.

Shopping for the smallest turkey possible had still been quite a task and Akk was sure they'd be eating its remains for the next two months. Theo had also insisted on other traditional items like gougeres, roasted carrot soup, gratin dauphinois, and green beans almondine.

"It'll be worth the work," Theo promised as he sliced potatoes on the mandolin. "You'll see."

"I can't even pronounce half these dishes, Theo," Akk said as he mixed choux pastry for the gougeres.

"You don't have to pronounce them. Just eat them with me later."

After all their hard work, Akk had to admit that the small dining table lit with candles and decorated with holly was quite romantic, even with all their dishes piled around it. Theo fed Akk the first bite of everything and Akk begrudgingly admitted that the traditional dinner had been quite good.

Snow began to fall again as Theo and Akk looked out over the Paris skyline, glasses of dessert wine in hand. "So, how was your first Christmas in Paris," Theo asked as he took a sip, his other hand fussing about in one of his cardigan pockets.

"Colder than I expected," Akk replied before thrusting a small jewelry box at Theo. "So here's your reward for making Christmas interesting."

Theo frowned. "That's not the point of Christmas," he said as he took the box. "I- Oh..." Theo's expression softened as he looked at the silver bracelet with a camera charm.

"Just something small," Akk said with as much nonchalance in his voice as he could spare. "I know I already gave you a ring but..."

Theo huffed and finally pulled out what he'd been fussing with in his cardigan pocket. "Then here, this is for you. Something just as small." In the candlelight, Akk realized it was one of the other bracelets from the jewelry store, the one with a book charm instead.

With one hand, Akk gently accepted the bracelet and with his other, he cupped Theo's cheek and pulled him in for a kiss.

In the coming Christmases, regardless of where Theo and Akk were, Akk's photo of their clasped hands with matching bracelets shining in the light was always in the forefront of their decorations.

Cosy visiting outfit, my fur-trimmed Victorian dolman, fur sourced from a vintage jacket that was handed down to me. A waist tape keeps the dolman tightly fitted to the back while still being allowed to drape nicely over the sides.

Your First Quilt: A Step-By-Step Guide

Pattern

Select your pattern. For beginners, it’s best to start with a simple charm square pattern that doesn’t require complicated techniques. Check my beginner pattern but make it smaller, free charm square quilt patterns.

Select Fabric

Choose your fabric. Cotton is generally the easiest to work with and is available in a wide range of colors and prints. You can also grab any fabric bundle on sale at the local craft store to get you started. After all, you just want fabric you can practice with. If you have friends or family members that sew, why not ask for some of their scrap fabric or older fabrics they no longer want.

Cutting Fabric

Cut your fabric pieces according to the pattern instructions. Be sure to measure twice and cut once! Use 5″ squares for your first quilt. Buy one or two Pre-Cut Charm Packs. If you are cutting the fabric yourself, be careful using the rotary cutter for the first time. Invest in cutting gloves to protect your hand and fingers so you don’t cut them off! The best ruler for beginners is the 5″ x 24″ straight acrylic quilting ruler. It’s long enough to cover your WOF (width of fabric and it’s 5″, the same size you want your charm squares to be for your first quilt.

Sewing Squares

Use the floor, bed, sofa, or any other flat surface to layout your 5″ squares before sewing. Once you like the layout, sew your fabric pieces together. Start by sewing individual pieces together into rows, then sew the rows together to form the quilt top. Match up your inner corners, pinning in place until you have the full row pinned. Don’t worry if the outer edges don’t match up perfectly, they can be trimmed later if needed.

Basting and Machine Quilting

Add batting (the middle layer of the quilt) and backing fabric, then sew all three layers together. This is known as “basting” and “quilting.” Here are several tutorials on basting, machine quilting with walking foot and straight line quilting.

Binding

Finish your quilt by adding a binding around the edges. This gives your quilt a clean, finished look and protects the edges from wear and tear. Please check out these quilt binding tutorials that include how wide to make your binding, single fold or double fold and how to join the binding ends. Use the top tool bar, search for binding for all posts on this topic.

Congratulations, you’ve just completed your first quilt! Remember, practice makes perfect, so don’t be discouraged if your first few quilts aren’t perfect. The most important thing is that you’re learning and having fun.

Inner Cotton Gloves: The Hygienic Choice

We have our new premium inner cotton gloves that offer the utmost in comfort and have excellent ventilation systems.

Tough Jobs Demand Heavy-Duty Cotton Gloves 

It is therefore important to realise that not all cotton work gloves are made in the same way or using the same materials. Our Terry cloth and jersey cotton gloves have the right form of reinforcement for the tough tasks. Yard work and construction work when we sweat a lot, require a fabric that provides extra thickness so Terry cloth is perfect for this. The rough grip also gives a non-slip handhold on tools and equipment.

If your wet work includes the cleaning or washing processes you can use our jersey knit gloves. Weather resistant but not dri-nab, they are waterproof but allow hand evaporation while defending against harsh soaps and bleach. These seamed elastic cuffs also prevent spills coming in while at the same time providing comfortable wrist support in the course of repetitive activities.

A cost effective means of protection available in large packaging 

As mentioned with the increase of the cotton prices, it can be quite tempting to purchase cheap disposable gloves online. However, low-quality gloves are not long lasting and create wastage that is not necessary. Slightly spending more at the initial stage with the cotton gloves from Premium Uniforms helps to avoid expenses later. It also saves several trips to the store for replacements.

Sizing up your team is easy with our bulk packs and prices that are further reduced to give wholesale rates. Offer the right support that your workers’ hands require coupled with a non-leathery, sustainable touch. That is why quality gloves can not be at the detriment of the environment.

The Ultimate Guide to Using IONIQ Self Tanner

It takes a while for this chemical reaction process to happen, which is why many people prefer to leave their ioniq self tanner on overnight. Immediately after applying self-tanner is when it is most vulnerable to disruption. Sweat, moisture, rubbing, and other things can cause the self-tanner to become blotchy or streaky if it hasn’t had time to fully develop. Prices may change without notice and will be confirmed in your contract of sale.

The desire for a sun-kissed glow has led many to explore various ioniq self tanning products. One emerging favorite in the beauty industry is the Ioniq self tanner, known for its unique formulation and user-friendly application.

But under that, it's wide open, with spacious footwells and tons of room. Between the front seats is a sliding console that can move backward to give more space on the floor for a bag or purse, or it can slide forward to provide more rear legroom (and make the armrest functional). Three hours after application, I rubbed my skin with a cotton pad to see how much each self-tanner ... Even with the engine and motor working together the Ioniq doesn’t have quite enough puff to keep up with fast-moving motorway traffic.

Because keratin is also a component of hair, you can give yourself an unintended dye job if you're not careful. "Light-haired people should be meticulous at avoiding the product getting on scalp or brow hairs," she advises. "Self-tanners have DHA (dihydroxyacetone) which tends to dry your skin and can leave patchy areas if you tend to have drier skin already," Alysa says.

What Makes Ioniq Self Tanner Stand Out?

Ioniq self tanner differentiates itself from competitors through several key features:

Natural Ingredients: Formulated with skin-loving ingredients that nourish while tanning.

Easy Application: Comes in a spray or lotion form for effortless, even coverage.

Gradual Tan: Offers a buildable tan that allows users to control their desired shade.

Quick Drying: Dries quickly to avoid transfer onto clothing or furniture.

Most buyers will likely be satisfied with the 168bhp entry-level model, which is fitted with a 58kWh battery. Thanks to an 800-volt electrical architecture, it will be able to charge at up to 220kW, which is faster than most rivals. Find a potent enough charging station and it's possible to add around 62 miles of range in five minutes.

Yes you can sleep in self tanner though there are a few things you should know beforehand. For example, allowing time for the self-tanner to dry before getting into bed is a highly recommended. With these top organic options, you can confidently embrace a radiant, sun-kissed complexion without compromising your skin’s health.

How to Use Ioniq Self Tanner Effectively

For optimal results, follow these steps when using Ioniq self tanner:

Exfoliate: Prepare your skin by exfoliating to ensure an even application.

Moisturize: Apply a light moisturizer to dry areas like elbows and knees to prevent over-absorption.

Shake Well: Ensure the product is well-mixed before application.

Apply Evenly: Use a tanning mitt or your hands (gloved) to apply the self-tanner evenly across your body.

Wash Hands: After applying, wash your hands thoroughly to avoid staining your palms.

Let it Develop: Allow the tanner to develop as per the instructions for your desired depth of color.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Ioniq self tanner suitable for all skin types?

Yes, Ioniq self tanner is designed to be suitable for various skin types, including sensitive skin. However, it's recommended to perform a patch test prior to full application.

How long does the tan last?

The tan typically lasts between 5 to 7 days, depending on skin type and care. Regular moisturizing can help maintain the longevity of your tan.

Can I use Ioniq self tanner on my face?

Yes, Ioniq self tanner can be used on the face. It is advisable to use a smaller amount and blend well to achieve a natural look.

How often can I reapply?

You can reapply every 3 to 4 days to maintain your desired tan. Always exfoliate before reapplying to ensure even coverage.

In conclusion, the Ioniq self tanner offers a convenient and effective way to achieve a beautiful bronzed look without the harmful effects of the sun. With its easy application process and nourishing ingredients, it’s a go-to choice for many seeking a radiant glow.
