Your Favorite "Ugly" Item - Topic of the day 11/20/24

Seeing how EG uses some outlandish fabrics makes me want to explore using these commercial crafter market patterning in different ways.

Recent-Purchases Follow-Up - Topic of the day 11/13/24
Bought a rowenta iron and bartinelli ironing board, really glad I took the plunge. I justified the purchases as an expense for my sewing practice, and they are game changing tools for that, but i also have felt extremely happy to be able to iron my clothes, makes me feel like i’m doing advanced dressing, and it’s gratifying to deepen my relationship to my clothes this way.

Under-appreciated damage that I'd like to see become more aestheticized: pilling, bad ironing, loose yarn of a sweater getting snagged as you walk away slowly leaving you in your boxer shorts and sock garters
