As a Dungeon Master I nearly scrolled past this before my brain kicked my own ass and reminded me that I have tried looking up 'Blue Gemstones' at LEAST a dozen times in the last six months and never found anything this helpful.
So my sister wants to start sewing more, because
a. She’s 5′ 11″ and can never find pants long enough for her legs or shirts long enough for her arms.
b. She hates synthetic fibers as much as I do and it’s difficult to find natural fiber clothes that aren’t made of cotton
c. She’s a biologist and would physically fistfight microplastics if given half a chance
So her gift from mom and dad for her birthday was a sewing machine. Not a super expensive one but a good solid serviceable one.
And recently she asked “So where do I GET wool or linen and thread that isn’t polyester” and mom was like ‘go ask your sister’
And I, of course, crashed into the group text like “GET A PEN I HAVE WEBSITES FOR U” and honestly I’m thrilled about this
“Where did u get all this”
“Bets, u know I’m a 15th degree blackbelt of buying shit on the internet”
“oh yeah tru”
Op can may we inquire about the website list
Linen; https://www.graylinelinen.com/
cotton and Silk thread; https://redrockthreads.com/
Linen thread and wool fabric; https://burnleyandtrowbridge.com/ (they’ve got wool stuffs and worsted wool fabric for $15 a yard! I just got three yards of navy worsted wool I’m making a constellation winter skirt from)
More linen thread and wool; https://wmboothdraper.com/ (just ordered wool broadcloth to make a coat)
Silk fabric (THE best place to get silk lining fabrics and raw silk fabric):https://www.dharmatrading.com/
A varying assortment of wool and silk and cotton and even some leather, use coupon code spring2020 for 50% off your full order, worked yesterday when I bought some stuff there; https://metrotextilesnyc.com/
Wool. You want wool coating for under $20 a yard? Sure you do. It’s here. Not a huge variety of colors, most are black or brown, but hey https://www.fashionfabricsclub.com/Catalog?refinementIds=4096748&Keyword=wool&pageSize=16
I don’t know a lot about sewing, but I want to make or have my mom make some linen pants & shirts for when I’m watering, because it gets to 105 here and we have mosquitos so I need to be covered. What type of linen do I buy? Also, linen pajama shorts, yes/no?
(I’ve been wearing my renfaire pants which are a linen mix, I think. But the frikking mosquitos that hide in the tomatoes get my arms)
Medium weight is what I’d go with.
And linen pajama shorts is a HARD yes.
Renaissance Fabrics is good for all sorts of things
Mood doesn’t specialize in natural fabrics but they do have basically every fabric ever made so
For wools, I cannot recommend Woolsome enough! They’re a bit more expensive then the above links, but they have a spectacular range of colours and weights, as well as diamond pattern and herringbone weaves. They also have a range of linens, though not as extensive.
Historical fabrics for re-enactors
Tiedtohistory.com has sheer voile linen
The Linen Lab has a variety of weaves, weights, and colors available
Period Fabric has a variety of wools, but switch to the full website if you’re on mobile
if you have a status on Discord right now, reblog and say what it is (optional: what does it mean?)
remember the "which character are you quizzes?
Statistical "Which Character" Personality Quiz results
that's a "scientific" one, using correlation on a list of 2000 characters.
So yeah, it me in a way! :D
Honored to be like Kenny, Powder, Stitch, Aang and Suzuha!
moots, your turn!

I think this is kinda bad?
Oh no, this is very bad…
This is terrible!!
This is TERRIBLE I am so miserable right now!!!!!
NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE
Do you have a fav larp pc to play?
Most of the LARPs I take part in have pre-written roles and are one to three episodes long so let me anwser in two different directions:
My favourite PC that I ever played was Charlotte Harper on a Frostpunk LARP. It was a challenging role, because introverts are easily isolated from the plot, but I really wanted to take on a morally gray or maybe even evil person and I had so much fun being bad :D Charlotte has a big tag here cause I can't stop drawing her now.
Whereas my favourite *kind* of a character to play is probably militaristic characters with deep convictions. I also immensely enjoyed playing male characters both times I got to try it, but I'm still building my confidence on this field - there's a certain kind of men that I feel I can convincingly pass as.
That's so fun! Its neat to hear about different larps and larp characters
I'd never considered short larps, the only ones I know/have been to are all long-term ones, but I bet it would let you try out all kinds of fun characters!
Charlotte sounds so fun! I'm too nervous to play a morally grey/evil character, but I feel like the story you get from it would be so cool
annoying when shows set in the medieval period have the women with thier hair just long and unstyled and out . girl go put on your wimple girl 🤦♀️
like there are so many fun medieval hair and headgear options, it's so boring just seeing loose beachy waves meant to appeal to 21st century beauty standards
put that hot prince in a gay little hood with an ostrich feather or so help me god
From an adventuring perspective (as a fantasy larper), hair gets knotted SO FAST and SO FURIOUSLY when you're running around in the woods and fighting things. ESPECIALLY when you don't have access to any good bathing facilities
Braids and wimples for the win!
*guy who hasn't eaten lunch voice* been really into the idea of picking a direction and running as fast as I can in a straight line until I collapse and die
"came back wrong" sure yeah that's cool i guess "came back suicidal" now you're talking
came back imprisoned by obligation to bear responsibility for the love and grief that others feel for you. came back painfully aware of the horror of existence. came back to a life you cannot bear to live anymore, to a body you cannot bear to call yours.
So a couple Christmases ago, I got an emergency whistle in my stocking. It was supposed to be deafeningly loud, so obviously not the sort of thing you blow on Christmas morning just to see what it sounds like. And let me tell you, pretty much that whole morning, I was dying to blow that whistle. Out of curiosity, and because I wasn't supposed to. The next time I had the house to myself, it was one of the first things I did.
All of this to say, when Susan rode around with her horn strapped to her saddle, I wonder how often she was intrusively tempted to just pick it up and blow it? Was is hard to run around Narnia with a horn she was only supposed to blow when she was definitely, seriously, for-real in danger?
And more to the point, what about Caspian? Did he ride away from Dr. Cornelius with a little voice in the back of his head going blow the horn dude c'mon just blow it find out what it sounds like c'mon dude?
#susan was very fortunate to have a horn-justifying emergency within a couple of days#caspian demonstrated great restraint for a 13 year old
hey I'm sorry to fandom-pivot on your post but i really believe this lotr excerpt is relevant to your point because it features a grown man blowing his very loud war-horn for no apparent reason
Boromir had a long sword, in fashion like Anduril but of less lineage and he bore also a shield and his war-horn. 'Loud and clear it sounds in the valleys of the hills,' he said, and then let all the foes of Gondor flee!' Putting it to his lips he blew a blast, and the echoes leapt from rock to rock, and all that heard that voice in Rivendell sprang to their feet. 'Slow should you be to wind that horn again, Boromir, said Elrond. 'until you stand once more on the borders of your land, and dire need is on you.' 'Maybe,' said Boromir
The province is banning hiking/camping/etc until there's any degree of rain (>a week probably, the place is currently one big tinderbox) and I'm slightly charmed at just how incredibly needlessly ominous the graphic they came up for the press release is.
It's wild! $25k fine if you even just go hiking and get caught! They aren't messing around!

Have you been here?
I have been here
I have not been here
Larp day today! I'm very excited
It's my 12 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
girl shocked to discover that inaction can have consequences too
local woman disgusted to learn that choosing not to decide or act is, in itself, a choice
Shout out to Characters who are shells of their former selves! You died and you’re not coming back! You don’t recognize yourself and neither does anyone else, and it’s anyone’s guess what the fuck you’re supposed to be now!
