Re: Skirting when doing DIY projects
When at home, if I feel warm enough to do the work and the work is compatible with skirt wearing (and when doing around the house, if weather permits): https://snipboard.io/BdXWbI.jpg The only significant downside compared to trousers: the pockets are hard to use with this skirt, due to its design. ...

Re: Hypothethical Question
You make me think about a thought I've had at H&M on this Saturday. I had no camera to take any picture, but I was in the men's aisle and did see black, gray, white, marine blue, blue, light blue, brown, light brown, red, orange, purple. All in pale colors however, but all these colors. As for t...

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys
Not really possible, I'm afraid. There are so much kids compared to the school staff, that it is simply impossible to check everywhere. Kids will always find a place to hide from view to commit their misdeeds. And eventually, that "somewhere" can be out of school. A school can be as strict...

Re: What feminine items do you wear?
Just saying, the average man is bigger than the average woman. It tends to make possible for most women to wear "boyfriend clothes" whereas it tends to make hard or impossible for most men to wear "girlfriend clothes". Sometimes, forgetting about "high-level thingies" m...

Re: Red pleated skirt... that inspires a kilt
After two ironing attempts, here is the best I could get: https://snipboard.io/3N4yVo.jpg But now that I'm posting this, I just figured out a way I could have tried but I don't have thought about. It will be for a next time. The problem is not more the machine foot than the need to elevate textile w...

Re: Red pleated skirt... that inspires a kilt
I have a dedicated table for cutting, pinning, measuring, etc., it is 120 x 80 cm. Not so big, but actually enough to work on most projects I have realized up to now. Bigger would have been nice, but not required and in fact I don't reasonnably have any space for it (especially because an equivalent...

Re: Mouse making something....
The look is quite... special, but is good also. I understand why you say you felt special in that outfit, it is indeed uncommon.
You actually have made a great work. As for the boots, not my cup of tea

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys
I just made a comparison exercise on my side. Let's take the four closest people (of each sex) I've had the last year around me, making eight people. I can't extend the sample, however, due to lack of people around me (I can find males at work, but no female at all). In the male's side: brother is a...

Re: Red pleated skirt... that inspires a kilt
Hello, Thanks all for the compliments :- ) The wrinkles are unfortunately true to reality. Ironing will most likely not be enough, I suspect this is caused by one or several of the following: - textile not having been ironed before sewing (it did not looked that badly wrinkled) - machine being unada...

Red pleated skirt... that inspires a kilt
Hello, In Seb's topic, I've spoken a bit about an idea of pleated skirt I had in mind, but kept anything else for myself to not pollute his topic. Now that I've finished it, it took me one month before to get motivated enough to write about it : -D ( :hide: ) First, a description of it: it is a plea...

Re: Here we go - AGAIN !
Hello, Thank you for this reminder. I was thinking recently to create a topic about it, because I often have hard time (especially with certain members that I will not name) to read what they write, and eventually just to figure out what they were willing to write. The worst I've seen, is a message ...

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys
Hmmm, just turning the question of boys shooting photos for marketing a skirt to be sold to other boys. Who do you think would dare to be exposed that way to all other kids? I mean, this is already something to wear a skirt, it's even more a thing to wear it publicly, even more a thing to wear it pu...

Re: would you wear these sci-fi unisex dresses?
With the rope slightly lower (than my not-so-big-but-still-big belly): yes I could consider it (if stride is big enough)

Re: Pretty Skirts?
One year ago, I've been complimented by several people at different moments, about the flower on my trousers. I made it to repair a hole before it grew too much: before - after . When you know you can't repair invisibly, then you add something big enough to hide the ugly reparation. This worked nice...
