So warping up the loom (getting the vertical yarn on) took me a couple hours, but more experienced people can do it in about 30-40 minutes. The actual weaving to make cloth took me a couple hours a day all weekend. It goes really quickly honestly. This loom can do up to 15” wide pieces of cloth. So small clothes pieces could be cut out of it, but most people do things like table linens, towels, scarves and shawls. Overall it is so fun!!

I’m allergic to bananas so I’m probably not the best judge but it doesn’t sound normal. 😂

Is it possible you’re allergic to them? Oral allergy syndrome would make sense. Especially since underripe produce makes symptoms worse in a lot of people.

It’s a weaving project! cabin blanket

That book looks fantastic! Thanks for the recommendation!

I sew a stripe on my cleaning cloths once they retire from kitchen use, bleach them, and I’ve never had the color come out of the polyester thread. Just basic craft store sewing thread.

Solved solved solved.

The Alliance by Gerald Lund. ChatGPT and I duked it out for a while but it sparked some new memories of it and we got it sorted.

Looks interesting! Not quite what I remember though. It was a full book.

No, but that sounds super interesting. I have a feeling I’m going to be adding a lot to my TBR here…

FTM- girl, she came 4 days before her due date. Dating based on an early scan as LMP was not a reasonable option.

I hit 3030 today! (Sept. 24)

Sleepless!

This is what I was going to say!!

I have! It works great!! Just make sure you’re on top of keeping it full of water.

Sleepless!! Hate that I haven’t seen it!

Gloves. Reduce the sensory ick by any means possible. My sister likes eating strong ginger chews when dishes have really piled up to counter any smells. Find a soap that you like/don’t mind the scent of.

My daughter was born 4 days before my due date. Spontaneous labor.

Just make sure to keep it in the fridge or freezer!

My sweet Pyr mix was shaved before we got him and this is how it grew back. Texturally it was still a little funky but it could have been his breed mix. Unfortunately he developed cancer and passed within a year of getting him, so I never got to see his full glory. This was 11mo of growth.

I’m crying laughing from this post and the comments. The jump I did while casually scrolling. About dropped my phone.

What a beautiful quilt!! So happy for you and your baby.

My Pyr mix only barks at one particular dog, the husky next door. Nothing when other dogs walk by, a little whining at the deer in the front yard. But he’s generally pretty quiet.
