Well, thanksgiving didn’t beat me. CICO is stupid, but it works! I went from this summer, fighting their plane belt to even buckle (or once, hiding it under my belly roll) to having this much slack!! Yay!2yr ⋅ kiki-cakes ⋅ r/1200isfineIGUESSugh

A while ago, just before I left a teaching job in Africa, my friend and I had students sign fabric so we could make some living art skirts. We used available fabric and sharpies, but now that I’m stateside and leaving my school, I’d love to have a durable white fabric for writing on. Ideas?3yr ⋅ kiki-cakes ⋅ r/sewhelp
Powerwashed my dad’s old Chromebook (he passed in 2015). Is it worth using now that they don’t provide updates? Apps still work. It would just be for browsing/streaming really. What privacy concerns should I have? Thanks!4yr ⋅ kiki-cakes ⋅ r/chromeos
Does anyone have a pattern for a drum? We have 5 drummers in our musical family and I got the idea stuck to turn this ‘present table runner’ into drums... you can see my crude drawings.

Looking for repurposing ideas for my daughters’ outgrown monogrammed Nutcracker dresses. The younger one would wear it again if I just made it into a skirt with less gathering, but the older one won’t. But they’re so pretty I feel like there is something lovely that we could do besides a pillow.3yr ⋅ kiki-cakes ⋅ r/sewhelp

Can you help translate these plates? They were my grandmother’s, and while google translate gives me an idea, I am wondering if they are common sayings or metaphors, etc. The translation isn’t the clearest. Thanks!5yr ⋅ kiki-cakes ⋅ r/Norway

To what does ‘measurement at the hip line’ refer? I measured my biggest part (usually a 24 w my rear, and I was only 63”) so it’s clear that the size 6 @ 60 1/2” can’t be referring to the widest part of a body. Plus, it already says width of lower edge, so I assume that’s the bottom circumference.6yr ⋅ kiki-cakes ⋅ r/sewhelp
The hub's brisket for our friend's Super Bowl party. My husband (Texpat in Miami) is sad that it was drier than he wanted. But a foodie at the party says it's the best he's ever had, so i guess he'll settle for the compliment. ;)6yr ⋅ kiki-cakes ⋅ r/BBQ
