mandy pants (she/her)And the dress. I sewed the side seams and then zig zagged the edges ... together. I should've ironed them flat and zig zagged each edge. (My seamstress mother advised zig zagging raw edges to prevent the silk from unraveling, which you can see on my collar has already begun.)I sewed the neck binding - a scant 1 3/8" wide. I've cut another that's 2" wide to sew over the first. If that doesn't work, I'm starting over at cutting out new pattern pieces. <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/sustainability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sustainability</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/NoAdvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NoAdvice</a>

A Sensual MindTired of being tired. 40 years of tired of being tired.¹<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/noadvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#noadvice</a> please, but warmth and friendship welcome. _____ ¹ Sadly this isn't my age, just an estimate of how long I've been tired of being tired.

Grant Simpson<a href="https://mastodon.social/@timtfj" class="u-url mention">@timtfj</a> I haven’t seen <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/noadvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#noadvice</a> used before. From context, I take that it’s used to indicate “suggestions about what to do about this are not welcome”. Is that what it’s for?

Tim JI was surprised how few occurrences of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/noadvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#noadvice</a> there were when I clicked it. But I suppose posts with it in are likely to be unlisted or followers-only ones anyway, meaning it won't come up.

Tim JInteresting. I checked the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/noadvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#noadvice</a> tag to see how people are using it, and it wasn't long before I found a post containing the phrases "it's not that difficult" and "how to use the mute and block buttons".(Though, TBF, I think it was in a discussion that was really about something else.)But still: "You should just do B" is never a helpful response to "Please don't do A". Maybe they're tired of having to do B because you can't refrain from A? Maybe that's why they're asking you to stop?

Tim JFar too tired, after far too little sleep. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/noadvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#noadvice</a>

RandomYarningWork is stressful at the moment, for reasons including the fact that we are moving office in January. I think I may take my knitting with me for lunchtime read-and-knit stress busting.I work in a law firm, in property. We have no file storage in New Office. We need to become actually paperless, not just technically paperless.Big plus: New Office has working heating and air con, so whatever else it is 100% better than Old Office. <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/NoAdvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#NoAdvice</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Knitting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/LegalLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#LegalLife</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/LegalSecretary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#LegalSecretary</a>
