Can anyone recommend some sites with patterns similar to Sublime Stitching? I used to do embrodery when I was younger but got pretty fed up with the fruity patterns.

Also, Goldaline I loving love everything you make. Good lord woman, you're talented.

Tattoo flash was pretty much exactly what I was wanting, thanks.

Are you trans now? Or am I taking you way too literally?

E: Some of the math clipart is really cool and would make great stitching. Check this baby out: http://etc.usf.edu/clipart/36700/36...e4_36736_lg.gif

Helldump's actually the most tolerant forum on SA as far as transsexuality, homosexuality, etc goes. Good luck with your transition .

Urbanthreads.com has a lot of cool stuff, but I'm just getting into embroidery myself...

Also, I just found out today that a store I can see through the window sitting at my desk at work is the new distributor of Sublime Stitching in the UK (Tatty Devine), woop!

Sweet thank you! I'm going to try this design on an old sheet in all black. If it works out well I will redo it in color on a black jacket I've been studding.

PVC frames, I ended up having to drill holes in all the connectos, because they don't make a 4 way 90 degree connector at 1"

Sure they do. You'd be looking for a schd. 40 4 way cross or connector.

I'll start with the backstory so you don't think I'm weird... I bought my girlfriend a bunch of pretty racey swimwear for hut tubbing and I wanted something to match. I found a seller on Ebay that had some men's swimwear that was pretty cheap (under $20 cheap) so I grabbed it. What showed up was garbage. The strings were just knit elastic in the same color as the suit and just plain trash. Looking at it tho I thought hell, I'll bet I could make something better. So on payday last week I went and bought a serger and a machine. I jacked up the first few I made, not ever sewing anything before. Anyway, I'm starting to get the hang of it.

This is literally the fifth thing I've ever sewn. The strings are just spandex tubes. The suit is see through mesh in the center with spandex sides. I still have a lot of trouble with serging and especially elastic. For some reason, the bunches are really small. I'm using a fairly long zigzag but they just look kinda strange to me.



On a side note. A serging question... Every time I use it, there's always an extra string that ends up caught underneath somewhere. So when I finish, I have six strings. The stitches are perfect though. It's just an annoyance. Any idea what may be happening? It's not a terribly expensive serger (Kenmore)

Did you sew yourself a pair of grape smugglers? Is that what we're seeing here?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but I don't think we have a jewelry-making thread.


Does anyone know where I should look to get some custom stone jewelry? I really want this meteorite I have made into a pair of plugs. Most likely it'd end up being a metal plug with a slice of the meteorite set in the face. Any ideas where I could find someone who could do this? I'm at a loss.
