you'd see it if you took a gander at it
9:53 am
mael

there's also a very similar re6 and 7
9:53 am
mael

if you're down with that
9:53 am
hurshy

well don't we know that cause you clued it based on the 6
9:53 am
mael

no, different one
9:53 am
rastapopolous

so it'll take these obscure chemistry words, but not hexene? no fair!
9:53 am
mael

:)
9:53 am
hurshy

i mean you could say there are TWO very similar 6 and 7 pairs really
9:54 am
hokie carla

I need 2 R's but have the two sets of similar 6/7 and the 8/9
9:54 am
hurshy

did you get the first pair, re5/16 and 6/27?
9:54 am
hokie carla

yes
9:55 am
hurshy

how about the stomach lining re6/18 and pl
9:55 am
hokie carla

yes
9:55 am
hurshy

to purify, to take a ship and make the inside new again
9:55 am
hokie carla

could be anything I guess
9:56 am
hurshy

if you have both of those pairs then i think that means you are not missing a PAIR

9:56 am
hurshy

6 re4, 2 ro (both 4s as well)
9:56 am
hokie carla

10:44 am

LOL!
10:44 am
hurshy

ve6, that one not fishy
10:45 am
hokie carla

had to restyle with a sweater on top because the crop overlay I made with the pattern looked terrible
10:46 am
BzznBea

I'm sure you looked divine.
10:48 am
hokie carla

instead of hemming I tried sewing on this decorative selvage from the skirt fabric but I didn't measure it first. (was doing this in a bathrobe and my wet hair in a towel). so of course it wasn't long enough, so then I started seam ripping it out and it was too hard, so then I cut it off and had to hem.
10:48 am
hurshy

done!
10:48 am
hokie carla

also had to pick out the invisible zipper like 3x because I kept doing it wrong. and I don't have an inv. zipper foot so it's not invisible.
10:49 am
hokie carla

congrats
10:49 am
hokie carla

and the skirt fabric has mini sequins so today I will be cleaning the sewing room and machines
10:50 am

Now wonder it was so complicated.
10:50 am
penquis

sounds like way too much work....i am tired thinking about it...
10:51 am
hokie carla

well, the pattern tutorial said it was a quick sew. took me like 3 days
10:52 am
hokie carla

but par for the course for my garment makes. it usually goes pretty well right until the end and then something major happens. I was really questioning my hobby yesterday.
10:53 am
hokie carla

I see people in the FB groups who crank out several things daily. maybe if I made stuff more than once it would go faster in subsequent attempts.
10:56 am
hokie carla

next up I hope to make some winter golf clothes
10:57 am

i admire your industriousness....

just reading the chat and chuckling at Carla's sewng woes. I used to so everything I and my daughter wore -- even the boy's clothes up intil about age 8. I hardly so at all now. Fabrics are so expensive that it is cheaper just to buy everything.
3:19 pm
cybernan

*sew not so -- my mind obviously not on what I am doing
3:19 pm
dcseain

:) your meaning was clear. :)
3:22 pm
cybernan

I hate to think what the cost of things are going to be if Trump goes ahead with his 25% tax -- that would mean a 50
3:22 pm
cybernan

50% increase on everything imported from the states.
3:22 pm
dcseain

indeed. He undervalues the value of low trade barriers. And the difficulty of toolling up to produce here,
3:23 pm
hokie carla

with the world of fast fashion, you can definitely buy stuff cheaper, but I like being able to make things fit me
3:23 pm
cybernan

people up here just won't be buying anything but the necessities.
3:24 pm
cybernan

you obviously aren't paying $17/yard for cotton broadcloth!
3:24 pm
hokie carla

now singing the bare (bear?) necessities from the jungle book movie
3:24 pm
dcseain

yes, I've gone upmarket with my clothing for quality and ability to tailor thins.
3:25 pm
hokie carla

I buy mostly knits, which i have to do online, which means $15 shipping at least
3:26 pm
hokie carla

last cotton I bought was a cotton lawn for $8.29/yd
3:27 pm
cybernan

you would never get it for that here. Broadcloth is about the cheapest fabric you can buy. Very few decent fabrics for less that $20/yd.
3:28 pm
cybernan

Thank goodness I don't need the wardrobe I did when I was younger.
3:28 pm
hokie carla

when I first started sewing garments like 10 or 15 years ago, I was making pj pants for my boys and went to my LQS (local quilt shop) for some flannel and didn't notice the price. It was like $32/yd or something. like the pj pants ended up costing over $70.
3:28 pm
hokie carla

I definitely learned to pay attention to that!
3:30 pm
cybernan

our problem is that Fabricland came in with their discount prices and drove every other drygoods store in town out of business. Now they have a monopoly other than a handful of quilt shops, so can charge whatever they want.
3:31 pm
hokie carla

have seen that mentioned in the FB sewing groups. I assumed it was like our Joann Fabrics
3:31 pm
cybernan

yes - very similar
3:32 pm
hokie carla

none of the quilt shops carry knits, or carry a very limited selection.
3:32 pm
cybernan

same here
3:32 pm
hokie carla

Joann has a decent selection of knits now, but I can get nicer ones from my favorites online
3:34 pm
cybernan

I just make stuff for the house now when I can't find the colours I want. I don't have too much trouble buying clothes that fit and It's not like I need to dress up to go out very much. All of our community activities are casual and the black tie dinners are a thing of the past :)
3:36 pm
hokie carla

yeah, I rarely go anywhere in something besides workout clothes and the few times I go to the clubhouse I can wear nice jeans with a nice top. I need more golf and tennis clothes though, and having plenty of patterns that will work, I'd rather do that than pay golf clothes prices.
3:38 pm
cybernan

what are the stats for the 9?
3:39 pm
hokie carla

re9, it's a plural
3:39 pm
hokie carla

prob not going to get the 8 without help, so let me know
3:41 pm
cybernan

the only re 8 I have is a verb and the 2nd person conjugation isn't there
3:45 pm

going to take a break and come back with fresh eyes
