    got glasses.
    office progressive. need to get used to them.

    • I've had progressives for 3 years, still can't get used to them. Need to take them off to draw, sew or read my phone.palimpsest
    • Got used to my varifocals in 20 minutes. Get your prescription rechecked.comicsans
    • I work with glasses, when I need to check something near on paper, I take off them, and voilá!

    • What you sewing pamp?garbage
    • Just mending nowadays, Santa never brough me the sewing machine. Started making zipper pouches with my MIL's machine and doing sashiko on them a few years ago.palimpsest
    • Nice. I'm embarrassed, but not too proud to admit it took me too long to realize MIL's wasn't a brand. My mom quilts, it was a family thing.garbage
    • I have a tattered-ass quilt that's literally from the Civil War era, and it need some work. Think my great great gran made it?garbage
    • It's literally a museum piece, and it's currently.. protecting the screen of a spare flatscreen in my closet.garbage
    • Eventually I'm going to make a frame for it. My mom went apeshit when she found out I was actually using it.garbage
    • Yeah, protecting a screen was a bit too much. I think having it over you bed would have gone down better. But you're making up for it with the frame!palimpsest
    • I loved tattered fabric, that's why I'm practicing sashiko. My sewing is still wobbly but my goal is to build a boro jacket from my own tattered clothes.palimpsest
