forever annoyed at the lack of non-woven jedi garments. excuse you, fibrecraft is the basis of society. where are they getting their cloth from? are they weaving it themselves? are they spinning it themselves? where is the knitwear. you cannot tell me that there are no sweaters in the jedi order. there are probably hideous sweaters made from fourteen different colours of yarn because they're made from the wool leftover from other projects. all of the colours manage to clash. and embroidery is just too good for teaching patience. hand-sewing in general is good and meditative.

these people are going to be darning their own socks, patching holes in their robes. they are going to have needles and thread in their survival kits and know how to hold the cloth tension just right with the force so they can re-weave the bigger holes by using tiny, straight sticks to hold the warp in place.

I love stamping phrases. Don’t get enough requests for it honestly (hint hint)

[yoiku]

suddenly consumed by the mad crafty creature's lust for carving. I don't even have any ideas but my brain wants to carve a piece of wood or a lino sheet or something lol. i want the feeling of doing it instead of any grandeur ideas of what i'd carve. ya'll know what i mean right?

[steorransaluki]

lil wip that will be available in a new thing I'm gonna try offering 👀 but how should I paint it?

[thelastlightningbug]

i’m making myself a pair of aerial boots, since i want to train chains soon and they hurt you in the ankles and feet, but i have been sewing this awful stiff pleather so long my hands are sore. yeowch how ironic

[marv3l-drag0ns]

staring directly into the sun i need to find a fabric store that sells good fabric that i can use to diy clothes for the ren faire i wanna make a thigh bag or book holster but idk how to find durable stuff ((i dont have the best trust in joanns fabric im hesitant)

[liberty-spiked]

i need stamp paper. i wanna make cheap stickers at home :D

[thatrandombystander]

Well I've ordered the specific buckle (plus a few extras of regular locking buckles just to bundle shipping) for my Tristamp Vash cosplay. Alas it's got a huuuge delivery window. Anywhere from next week to the week before the convention.

Hopefully it won't arrive too late, but at the very least I have the measurements for the buckles, so I should be able to start on the holster(s) + belt as soon as I'm in the headspace to start on that.

(Brain currently focused on the arm and unable to take on extra information to make the belt stuff. Will need to visit the craft store to see the faux leather options I have to work with too.)

Someone's been sticking hate speech stickers on the ceiling of my building's elevator again, and I've taken it upon myself to start removing them. The first time I did it, it was a lot harder, because I was an idiot and chose the wrong tool for the job (don't use a paint scraper), so I ended up scratching it off with my keys at 1 am and straining my neck. The second time round, the asshole put up three more stickers, but I got them down in less than 10 minutes, with no residue.

Here's a good tip for removing stubborn stickers from a flat surface: instead of a knife or a pair of scissors, try a craft knife or a scalpel. Even a razor blade, or one of those flat, sharp blades from a leather-working kit will do, as long as it had a very flat and thin blade.

yeah! like again it would heavily depend on your starting conditions. luckily though, you can use plant fiber for a good portion of things that would otherwise require leather under normal circumstances...

as for making a mill, if you really know what you're doing, you could reasonably set up DaVinci's mill if you had the food to dedicate a solid month to it, but that's pretty much assuming you do have basic metals readily available.

luckily for "it cascades down" though, tools can pretty easily be repurposed and improved Using themselves! Like you can use a basic bowstring lathe to make a better lathe, you can use a basic saw to make a better saw, basic files to make better files, eventually repurpose the blade of the saw for a mill.

i think you'd be cutting it pretty tight obviously but a team with a decent amount of craftwork experience i think could get it done, it really just depends on like, whether or not you're strictly adhering to real-world historical technological progress, or jumping ahead & skipping steps.

(also for the engine, you could theoretically make it out of wood, if you were using Steam, which would cut down on the metal needs immensely)

its terrible for any number of reasons, but i think if we invent immortality there should be an extreme sport called civilizational speedrunning where teams of 20 go into the wilderness somewhere and try and be the fastest build the first internal combustion engine. i bet you could get it down to like 3 years tops

As you feel the hairs stand up on the back of your neck you get the strange sensation someone is watching you. But who is it? And Why? Why does it follow you everywhere you go?

[trujellyfish]

on the note of clothes not falling right or warping in the wash, the way you lay out your pattern matters. unfortunately, this often means that you cannot cut fabric as conservatively as you would like.

selvage: factory edge of fabric

warp: the fabric grain that runs parallel to the selvage; non-stretch fabrics have little to no stretch along this grain

weft: fabric grain perpendicular to selvage; non-stretch fabrics may have a small or moderate amount of stretch along the weft

bias: diagonal grain; i have yet to meet a fabric that doesn't have at least a small amount of stretch to the bias. maybe leather.

generally speaking, you want the warp of the fabric to follow the vertical line of your project; like the side seam of a pair of pants or the length of a sleeve.

if the cut of your clothes follow the bias or weft too much, they won't drape right and they'll stretch out weird. you see it a lot with fast fashion t-shirts; ever noticed your side seams start to sort of migrate to the front or back? can't quite get the shirt to lay perfectly flat when you're trying to fold it and you kinda feel like burning it instead? yeah that usually means it was cut poorly.

also: don't forget to change the needle of your sewing machine every so often, especially if you're working with light fabrics like silk. i usually know it's time when it snags a thread and throws me into a rage :) (sometimes you can fix that by just scratching it back; water can help)

i also recommend leather thimbles if you're like me and hate the little cup ones

Things I wish I had read in "beginner" sewing tutorials/people had told me before I started getting into sewing

You have to hem *everything* eventually. Hemming isn't optional. (If you don't hem your cloth, it will start to thread. There are exceptions to this, like felt, but most cloth will.)

The type of cloth you choose for your project matters very much. Your clothing won't "fall right" if it's not the kind of stretchy/heavy/stiff as the one the tutorial assumes you will use.

Some types of cloth are very chill about threading, some are very much not. Linen doesn't really give a fuck as long as you don't, like, throw it into the washing machine unhemmed (see below), whereas brocade yearns for entropy so, so much.

On that note: if you get new cloth: 1. hem its borders (or use a ripple stitch) 2. throw it in the washing machine on the setting that you plan to wash it going forward 3. iron it. You'll regret it, if you don't do it. If you don't hem, it'll thread. If you don't wash beforehand, the finished piece might warp in the first wash. If you don't iron it, it won't be nice and flat and all of your measuring and sewing will be off.

Sewing's first virtue is diligence, followed closely by patience. Measure three times before cutting. Check the symmetry every once in a while. If you can't concentrate anymore, stop. Yes, even if you're almost done.

The order in which you sew your garment's parts matters very much. Stick to the plan, but think ahead.

You'll probably be fine if you sew something on wrong - you can undo it with a seam ripper (get a seam ripper, they're cheap!)

You can use chalk to draw and write on the cloth.

Pick something made out of rectangles for your first project.

I recommend making something out of linen as a beginner project. It's nearly indestructible, barely threads and folds very neatly.

Collars are going to suck.

The sewing machine can't hurt you (probably). There is a guard for a reason and while the needle is very scary at first, if you do it right, your hands will be away from it at least 5 cm at any given time. Also the spoils of learning machine sewing are not to be underestimated. You will be SO fast.

I believe that's all - feel free to add unto it.
