before the stage

prompt. quickly sewing back the loose button of their shirt that came off at the last minute, realising that you two are extremely close (1.2k)

pairing. luke hemmings x assistant!reader

warnings. fluff, employer x assistant feelings, written in 2nd person, frustrated!luke, the black shirt 🥵

divider credits. @cafekitsune

It was almost time for Luke and his band to perform, they had been entirely prepared and surpassed any qualms that threatened to delay their appearance on stage, however in the last moment, another problem appeared, leading Luke to sigh irritatedly. He was wearing a button up, the first one already undone, however it appeared that it didn't matter how much the quality of the satin fabric had cost, a couple of buttons in his midsection had escaped from the threads that held them in place.

The lead singer plucked the black pearls that closed his shirt up from the trodden ground, holding the minuscule clasps in his large hand. To say he was annoyed was an understatement; he didn't even have a backup outfit, he was set on wearing the exact apparel that he had on. "Fuck sake." His tone was bitter, it was as though something always had to go wrong at the last second.

It was just his luck, he thought. "Is something wrong Luke?" The voice cut through his distress as smooth as a knife, the soft sound relaxing the tall man slightly, as he looked to the side to see you - his assistant. He felt his lips incoherently move on their own accord as he fumbled to speak, miming through oxygen that flowed between you. "I- uh." He didn't want to rant to you about something so unimportant in the world, it would make him appear nonchalant to the real problems that tainted the earth.

He had the ability to purchase anything that he wished for due to the success of his music career, and thus he felt petty. "It's nothing." Luke shrugged off the grievance that had the strength to delay his entrance beneath the stage lights, there was no justice in getting worked up over something so minuscule. "Just.. my shirt broke." To emphasise his point in an embarrassed gesture, he braced his hands awkwardly on his hips and looked down at his torso.

A crease fell between your brows, and he felt like an absolute fool. There was a hue of red blossoming on his cheeks as he noticed your eyes scanning along his body, pinpointing the ajar fabric, your pupils staring sternly at his exposed skin. "I have just the thing." Your y/e/c eyes devotedly ogled up at him, glee glowing with an ambience from your eyes as a wide smile sprawled on your lips, leaving the curly haired blonde riddled in confusion.

For a moment you ignored your employer, shuffling with a purpose through your handbag that was slung across your shoulder, all knowing with what your search was for. A sound of diluted happiness prevailed from your throat as you plucked out a small and transparent case, where sewing needles and midnight coloured thread were stored. "Did you find the buttons?" It wouldn't be a problem if he hadn't, as you had a couple of spares loosely dancing around in your bag, however Luke held out his hand.

Luke felt sparks shoot through his body as you took the buttons, your fingers digging gently in the indent lines of his palm, grasping the black spheres and preparing your tools to reattach them. He could have sworn you were an angel sent from heaven to make every day that he spent with you significantly brighter; if there was ever a barricade to his intended path, you always had a solution.

You were always prepared, however in this moment you had to try with great difficulty to ignore the his soft abs from your focused sight. All you had to do was your job, which was to provide support and anything that Luke required, and so with your black reel of thread connected to the button, you grasped the opening of his shirt, knuckles brushing his tender muscles. The contact made him shakily inhale, his heart thumping vigorously within his chest.

He had never meant to form such an unprofessional crush on you, but it was impossible, sure when he interviewed you he couldn't ignore the physical attraction that he felt for you, though it didn't blind him to your listed criteria that was on your resume. "Thanks for this." He quietly spoke, but his words were as clear as day due to the proximity that you shared. One button down, one to go - you felt sufficiently accomplished, and you held the other one, determined to finish this fixing in time.

"It's my job." You responded nonchalantly, shrugging his appreciation off as to calm the butterflies that hurtled around in your stomach. "And it's no big deal Luke, it's an easy fix." Oh god, he could feel your breath hitting his chest where he had intentionally opened his shirt, and he could feel sweat brewing against his hairline. You were so focused, and he couldn't help but take in every detail of your face.

As you finished with putting the last button on, you placed the needle and thread back where they belonged, before you grasped the sides of his shirt, readying to put them through their designated loops. As you looked up, and he looked down upon you in his heeled boots, your nose almost touched his chin, and your eyes met in a staring embrace. "Hi." You muttered, hands still on his blouse.

"Hey." He replied, his lips pulling at the sides as his pupils enlarged in their surrounding blue pools. "How long do we have?" The musician enquired, knowing that you had a better sense for time management than he did. You glanced down at your watch, only briefly, and cocked your head. "Enough." You said, your body jumping a little as you felt his hands coil delicately around your hips.

The two of you leaned in, meeting in the middle in a collision of your lips, your hands tugging softly at his natural curls as you melted with satisfaction against one another. It was a slow exchange, full of passion and desire, and you wished it would last longer, however the alarm on your watch alerted you with a beckoning siren, causing you to defiantly pull away and huff lightly. "You have five minutes until you have to go on." You informed him, humming as Luke stroked your cheek.

He wanted nothing more than to lean in and get lost in you, to fall even further than he already had for you. But duty called, and he stood up straight, running his lips against one another as he vowed to never forget the first romantic moment that you shared. "I'll see you after?" Luke asked hopefully, his ocean eyes blazing with a new lease of motivation. Without a doubt you nodded, your hands ensuring that his shirt was done up and brushing down the smooth material to stroke out any creases.

"Of course. And then we could pick up where we left off." Your promise had a giddy expression morphing unto Luke's face, and you watched as he begrudgingly stalked off to meet with the other members of his touring team, excited to view his earth breaking performance from the sidelines. There was never a lyric that you skipped over, although today was different, you were strongly distracted by the leading man, and the before stage moment that you had just shared.

[practically-an-x-man]

Whew! Got the sleeves removed from the jacket (apparently my little Swiss Army Knife scissors work pretty well as a makeshift seam ripper), hemmed it with a simple running stitch and then threw a whip stitch around the edge to give it more of a comic-book look - I also used embroidery floss rather than sewing thread so the stitches would be visible

My apparel spikes are supposed to arrive tomorrow so hopefully I can get those added either tomorrow or Thursday

Sergers are cool. A serger, or overlock machine, is a specialty kind of sewing machine that uses 3 or 4 threads to sew a seam. Instead of two threads locking together like they do on a standard sewing machine, a serger wraps two threads around the top and bottom of the fabric, and secures those loops with one or two more threads. This makes a seam that is stronger, does not fray, and stretches. In addition, sergers cut the edge of the fabrics before they loop the threads around the side of the fabric. This lets the loops be the correct size and tension to make a beautiful seam, and also evens and shortens seam allowances for a professional, consistent look.

Fun serger technique that no one talks about:

Flatlock hems.

A real flatlock is a stitch made with a specialty type of machine. It uses 2-4 needle threads and then a cover stitch looper on both top and bottom. Most people don't have a flatlock machine, so we're going to just talk about the mock flatlock.

A mock flatlock is a kind of serger stitch. It's used either for construction or decoratively. When you join two pieces of fabric with a flat lock, they join together edge-to-edge. Instead of having a seam allowance sticking up between the joined edges, they're flat. The stitches are move visible, but the seam itself has less bulk.

You set your serger up for a flat lock (low needle tension, low upper looper tension, high lower looper tension, righthand needle, narrow cutting width, medium stitch length), and then you serge the seam with the two pieces stacked. Because you have your tensions set very loose in certain places, you're able to open the seam up and have the two layers of fabric sit flat next to each other. The stitching will pull all the looper threads onto one side. This is called the flat lock side. The needle stitches will stretch out into longer stitches. This side is called the ladder stitch side.

Flat lock seams are great for bulky fabrics where you don't want a lot of thickness in the seams. Decorative flatlocks are very common in things like athletic apparel. A flatlock seam is flat and flexible, but the thread is very visible. That's the trade-off you get with a flatlock.

So, let's take this a step farther.

Sometimes, you have fabric that needs a little bit of stretch in the hem, but that is also very bulky and can't be done in a double-turned hem.

If you want a stretchy single-turned hem where the raw edge is encased in an overlock, the proper tool for that is a coverstitch machine. I don't have a coverstitch machine.

But I do have this.

Fold your fabric like you would for a blind hem. Set your serger up for a good flatlock. (Ignore that serging you see there. That was round 1 and I should have trimmed that off before photographing that)

Here you can see the raw edge of my hem, which is the part I'm trimming off with the serger. My serger needle is just barely hitting the folded part of the fabric. I want that needle to just barely catch the edge of that fold.

And then, when we open our hem back out, we have our flatlock and our ladder stitches form. We get a stretchy, fully-enclosed single-turned hem. The hem is a consistent width and there's no raw edge hanging around.

If you want this to be less visible than my sample here, here's a few ideas:

a. use a blind hem attachment for your serger. This will let you more carefully prepare the fold so that the needle just barely hits the fold of the fabric.

b. use monofilament ("invisible thread") in your serger needle. I'm not a fan of this one because I find monofilament to be really annoying to work with.

c. slap some lace on the front and call it good

d. use a needle to run a piece of thin ribbon through the ladder stitching to use it as a place to attach more decoration.

I don't have ribbon narrow enough to do this with right now, but here's an an example from this post.

Anyway, I can't believe that I didn't make a follow-up to the other post, because I did actually buy a second serger (I want to say it's so that I can be a control freak and switch between specialty stitches and the things I do on my Babylock with its auto-tension, but I actually bought it because I knew I was going to quit my job and it was going to be my last chance to get something at a fuckoffhigh employee discount rate at that job). and then just never make this flatlock hem post at all.

Do you have a fave website or sites where you buy your clothes from? There’s straight up no brick n mortar places to buy from in the city I’m going to uni in

Incoming long-ass fashion post, sorry😂

If there's no thrift shops near you, I highly recommend Mercari, Depop, and Poshmark for secondhand, brand-name clothes. I don't usually shop for brands specifically, but some of the names I own and have heard of that might help you search are Killstar, Disturbia, Lip Service, Tripp, Midnight Hour, Foxblood, Blackwood Castle, Dracula Clothing, Phaze Clothing, Punkrave, Dark in Love, etc.

Of course many of these have their own active sites that you can buy from, but I'm a big fan of secondhand shopping over buying fast fashion outright!

Also, I wanna plug some of my local small businesses & friends that carry apparel you might be interested in:

(Given they're small businesses a lot of it's sold out, but Rumors updates daily!)

99% of my basics wardrobe comes from thrift stores or places like TJ Maxx, Marshalls, etc. I found that a lot of my clothes from thrift stores come from H&M and Uniqlo, which you can buy online or through the apps I mentioned. I pretty much only wear plain black clothes in textures I like and then I layer the hell out of it with cardigans, jackets, jewelry, and belts!

In terms of jewelry, I don't have a lot (UNFORTUNATELY...) but I much prefer buying jewelry, belts, and other accessories and layering them over otherwise "boring" all-black outfits. I like Etah Love, Regal Rose, Tommy Vowles, Remains Jewelry, Raspberry Mazohyst, and secondhand Killstar and Punkrave. Some of my favorite pieces (like rosaries and vintage) come from antique stores, Ebay, and Facebook Marketplace. I also make my own necklaces from chain you can buy at Home Depot (you can probably buy chain on places like Amazon too). A plain black T shirt or band shirt paired with some rings or a chunky necklace is my go-to for everyday wear!

Speaking of, band shirts are pretty much the best thing ever. Bandcamp and Instagram are great resources for this and it's a win-win-win. In buying a shirt you support the artist, discover new music, AND you get to look cool hahaha

For shoes (my favorite and imo the most important element), I like Poison MX, New Rock, Gothic Shoe Company (defunct), Goth Pikes (defunct), Demonia, TUK, Fluevog, Underground, and secondhand H&M and Forever 21.

Last thing on clothes is that DIY is, besides buying merch from smaller bands, the best way to own pieces that are unique to you and your style. There's loads of tutorials out there, I like making patches with cheap paint and sewing them onto whatever, adding spikes/chains, and cutting up shirts and jeans to change the fit and make them more interesting visually. The possibilities are endless. In high school when I couldn't afford band shirts, I'd just make my own!

There's LOADS of threads on Reddit as well with links to clothing stores, I also like to see what pages my favorite jewelry/clothing shops follow on Instagram to see what else is out there!

I hope some of this helps you out, I went to a small town college myself and it's rough trying to figure out your style when there's nothing around in person to get inspired.

“After all that happened and all we have been through, I believe that nothing I decide to give you would top the gift of getting along with you again. That little brooch, the hint of hope, the timeless memories that stay in the past… or try to.” Scarlett rambled to herself, wandering side by side, restless, at the same time. “I wouldn’t be able to come up with a better gift even if I tried.”

(Well...)

“Ah... Will any Christmas be like the last? Probably not. I’m only happy I don’t have to give you coal like I once considered.”

“And I know you may not be fond of meaningless gifts…”

“...But, I’m a lady of my word.”

“Don't hate me for this. But maybe you will pamper your inner child with these.”

She delivered a tiny bag with a box inside. A box of...

Yes, crayons.

“I'm being nice and I'm not giving you a book with them. Haha~”

“Merry Christmas~ ”

“There is no inner child and there will absolutely be no pampering, Scarlett. Rest assured, it will take more than some silly box of crayons for me to possibly hate you, though. I can’t promise I’ll make the most of your gift, but I got you something nice as well. Something only someone of your countless, long-lived years can fully appreciate. Who knows, it may even help keep your mind sharp as you age older and older.”

Despite saying everything with a fairly stoic and calm expression, albeit with a slight tinge of exasperation, Ruki hesitantly accepted the box of crayons, planning on shoving it into a drawer never to see the light of day again. Had it been someone else gifting him the coloring utensils, he would assuredly discard the item, and even worse, punish the one who thought it wise to gift a Vampire something so juvenile.

“Well, I’m certainly no artist, but perhaps you can let your creativity run with the wind.”

Handing Scarlett a carefully wrapped present adorned in an almost iridescent silver, the contents of the gift would reveal a knitting and sewing kit, complete with needles and thread of myriads of colors.

“Old ladies typically idle their time knitting, no? That being said, I figured this would be the most opportune present for you. Merry Christmas, Scarlett. I can’t wait to see what kind of apparel you come up with. Perhaps I should’ve bought a cane for you as well? We can never predict when you’ll need more support to get from one place to the other. Should worse come to worst…”

Without warning, both of the Vampire’s arms coiled around Scarlett, lifting her off her feet in his embrace as he let out a dark chuckle before gazing into her radiant amethysts.

“…You can rely on me rather than a cane. Kidding, of course. But it’s true that I will always be here for you.”

Here is my artistic rendition of a clan of Celtic warriors on the march to battle! I leave it open to interpretation what tribe of Celts these guys are. They could be Gauls or Britons on the march to kick some Roman butt. They could be Picts on the march to battle with invading Saxons. They could be Gaels looking to put down a rival clan. Regardless of how you see it, the ogham inscription at the center sews a common thread among all interpretations. It reads, “VICTORY!” Apparel, prints and more with this new artwork can be found at this link --> https://celtichammerclub.threadless.com/ ➖ #celtichammerclub #celt #celtic #celticart #celtictattoo #celticknot #celticspiral #irish #scottish #welsh #cornish #british #warrior #fashion #style #history #celticmusic #originalart #originalconcept https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp0oZhOOv_g/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

WIP WEDNESDAY (sunday late)

Thank you for tagging me @sillyliterature. 

So since @sillyliterature is the only interaction I have with someone in the Dragon age fandom on Tumblr and she decided to tag me in something, I can’t let her invitation go unanswered.  

So here’s my wip. From the next chap of my on-going story Dangerous Obssessions. 

When Lane stumbled into the Darktown's clinic – open at last – his eyes fell first on a sight that almost made him want to turn back on his heels.

Anders was nonchalantly sewing a man's arm back onto his shoulder.

His long fingers were blood-spattered and the thread between them seemed to gleam from what Lane could see from the threshold of the clinic.

The mage noticed his presence as quickly and called out a “Yes?”

“Hello,” said Lane, taking a small step onward.

“Lane? Is that you? I didn’t recognize you! Come on in.”

So Lane got closer and saw that, indeed, the thread the man manipulated gleamed blue with what could only be guessed as magic.

“What’s with this new dark look?” Anders intoned with a quizzical smile that rapidly turned to a grimace, “Please, tell me Fenris isn’t rubbing off on you.”

“... I wanted a change of clothes.”

“Oh. That’s fair. I guess bloodstains are hard to wash out from white, huh. Though I was a bit fond of your whitish apparel. Especially the boots. How have you been?” Anders asked while his eyes stayed focused on the gruesome surgical procedure. Lane, instead, choose to focus on the dirty bandage that held Anders’ right boot together.

“I... tried to come here yesterday. But it was locked.”

Anders glanced at him. “Oh, I’m sorry, I said I’ll come back the other day but… my... business took longer than expected.” the last part curled his lips in disdain, strangely.

Lane watched him.

“So what did you do? Hand me that,” he told the seated man with a pot full of balm in his lap.

“I met Ser Fenris in the tavern and he offered me to stay the night in his house.”

Anders turned to face him, surprised. “What? You mean last night?”

“Yes.”

“You... spent the night in Fenris’ compagny?”

“He offered me a room because his house is big.”

“Not his house,” Anders muttered. “So, how did you find the slaughterhouse color scheme?” He sneered, “I mean, I know all about stones and glass-houses but at least I have light and a broom.”

“... It was a bit unsettling...”

“Aw, you’re too kind. If you were going for a bit ‘sinister’ or a bit ‘depressing’ just blink once, I’ll understand.”

Having no interest in refuting, Lane kept silent which made Anders whisper a conspiratorial ‘exactly’. “Speaking of depressing, what made him do such an uncharacteristic gesture?”

Lane lightly twiddled with his wool-clothed fingers. “He offered me to go with him because of the rain.”

Anders tsked. “He would’ve offered you squat if he knew you were a mage.”

Lane’s eyes flung to the seated man in panic.

Seeing his reaction, Anders placated. “Don’t worry, Armand is a good friend. And more or less numbed right now.”

“Maker bless you,” sighed Armand in response.

“He’d soon see you freeze to death if he knew. He wouldn’t even show pity on your young age. Trust me, I’ve seen it first hand,” Anders bit as he recalled the elf’s comments on that mage boy Fenryiel at the hands of slavers. Anders snapped the thread. “Anyway, you don’t have to feel the need to be friendly around someone like him. It won’t serve you much in the long haul.”

Lane didn’t know what to say. He wanted to say that Fenris told him about his possession but the blond man seemed quite irked already.

“… I don’t think I’m a mage,” he mumbled the consistent sentence for the umpteenth time so much it started to sound dull and barren of conviction.

Anders smiled down at him like Lane was a naive schoolboy. “I’ll be the judge of that. Which remind me; didn’t we agree on continuing our little trainings?”

I have no one to tag but I’ll always answer your moon call @sillyliterature ;) It’s the least I can do!

Jacquard Loom Machine - 3 Fabrics & Its Importance In Various Industries

What is a Jacquard Loom Machine?

The Jacquard Loom Machine is a device fitted to a loom that simplifies the process of manufacturing textiles with such complex patterns as brocade, damask, and matelasse. It is known as one of the most advanced weaving machines around the globe.

A jacquard textile machine is used to weave the type of fabric known as a Jacquard. They were created in 1804 by the french engineer and silk manufacturer Joseph Marie Jacquard. It is capable of producing complex patterns on fabric through the use of punched cards. Plain, satin, velvet, and lace are the fabrics that were woven with the jacquard textile machine. There is an increase in the application of this technology in recent decades.

Let’s discuss the fabrics and how jacquard loom machines are used in various industries.

Brocade:

Brocade is a class of richly decorative subtle-woven fabrics, often made in colored silks and sometimes with gold and silver threads. One of the most popular machines used for weaving brocades is the computer jacquard machine. Brocade has patterns that can be woven right into the fabric as opposed to embroidered fabrics. It is additionally known as embossed cloth. Earlier, brocade was formerly used for decorative clothing, although now, it is used widely.

Where is the Brocade fabric used?

Homeware: Curtains and heavy silk drapes

Accessories: Tie, pocket squares, pillows

Furniture: Ornamental Chairs with brocade cushions and sofas with brocade patterns

Damask:

Damask is a type of fabric characterized by its flat and reversible pattern. It is typically made of silk, cotton, or synthetic fibers and is often used for table linens, upholstery, and clothing. The pattern is created by weaving the warp and weft threads of different colors in a specific manner to create a reversible design. The name “damask” originates from the city of Damascus in Syria, where the fabric was first produced.

Where are Damask fabrics used?

Apparels:

Damask is essentially used for evening wear, jackets, and other stuff clothing items that are meant to be somewhat weather-resistant.

Accessories:

Scarves, handbags, and luggage are some of the common uses of damask in everyday wear.

Decor:

Damask is regularly used in upholstery for home decor. Damask can sometimes be seen on light rugs as well.

Additionally, Damask is used in a wide variety of products, including wallpapers and suitcases, including fabrics with a damask-inspired pattern. Other frequent plastic accessories with damask designs include glass cases, laptop cases, phone cases, and many other plastic accessories.

Matelasse Fabric Matelasse is a type of fabric with a raised, quilted surface resembling a woven basket. The word "matelasse" comes from the French term for "quilted." It is usually made of cotton or silk and is often used for bedspreads, curtains, and upholstery. Matelasse fabric is characterized by its intricate patterns and soft, plush feel.  An interesting fact is that in the sewing industry, a “figured fabric” is an example of what is known as a Matelasse Fabric. This fabric has a complicated weave structure. It is manufactured using cotton, silk, or rayon. The fabric has a flexible surface with a quilted appearance, additionally, the fabric is opaque in appearance.

Where is Matelasse Fabric used?

Home Furnishing:

Curtains, bedsheets, pillowcases, bed skirts, cushion covers, etc.

Computerized Jacquard Loom is the best fabric weaver as it can carry out any weave pattern and produce endless fabrics. It started the manufacturing and consumerism industrial revolutions. Due to the demand for simple, minimal, and adaptable fabrics, there is a considerable increase in favor of industrial looms among designers and apparel firms.

Alidhra Weavetech is one of the most known and famous for being armed with innovative and cost-effective weaving and twisting machinery, as well as Jacquard machine solutions in the world. Weavetech is known for its innovation, creativity, excellence, and integrity.

While taking this course, I was also taking a class covering women's history during early America. Together, the classes helped me see how much the textile industry has changed. Today, textiles are primarily produced with the help of machinery - opening up the possibilities limited by a spinning wheel. I've certainly gained a better understanding of textile functions. I'm most surprised by the course's influence making me a more informed consumer. I liked the discussion assignments - especially the ones that allowed me to dig through my closet. Now, I carry a magnifying glass in my purse when I shop for clothing to get a better understanding of what I'm purchasing. I would've valued more insight into technical applications for textiles. We've talked about sustainability a lot throughout the course. I think it's important for the future of textiles to create new textiles with many end uses.

Module 1: Fashion alone is a large segment of the textile industry. As a history major, I valued outlining how our current textile industry came to be. This was a great introduction to the course as it got me thinking about textiles outside of apparel application - I wouldn't have considered fishing net a textile 9 weeks ago.

Module 2: I already knew what natural fibers are and sources of the popular ones. I came to understand how and why they are different. I also came to see how the naturally occurring structure affects their size and application.

Module 3: Manufactured fibers have a bad reputation for being planet killers. I've come to see many performance and cost benefits that pertain to manufactured fibers. I was also surprised to learn that sustainable production initiatives exist for a number of manufactured fibers.

Module 4: I sew; I use sewing thread regularly. I do not knit, crotchet, or weave. Previously,I thought yarns were merely thick or thin. I see now there are a number of yarns that influence how a textile behaves and looks.

Module 5: As mentioned, I sew. I've primarily used woven cotton, polyester, or blends of the two. Whenever I try a new fabric in a project, I often run into issues. For example, bunching or threads coming loose. Examining different weaves and fabric content has helped me see how to avoid these problems by assessing the structure of a textile. I appreciate the opportunity to research technical textiles and new sustainable textiles for the future - sometimes it feels hopeless in a petroleum based world.

Module 6: My mother works in textiles and I worked in apparel decoration for a few years. What I valued most from this module as the new information on finishes. Typically, working with textiles that are ready to be dyed or printed. It's interesting to see what finishing treatment happens before reaching our studio and how it affects dye performance.

Module 7: After obtaining by undergraduate degree I'm intending to continue with my education and pursue a graduate degree. I was torn between exploring textile conservation or historical costuming and textile history. I'm probably going to pursue the latter. I value what I've learned from this class. However, I see a lot of math and testing involved with textile sciences. It doesn't excite me. Still, I enjoy gaining a better understanding of things I use every day and will continue to use until the day I die.
