    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    Well, there's 3 main peices to the pants, not two. For each leg there are 2 front peices and one back peice. Thanks for the information! It'll take me a while to reread your post to really fully understand it, because I am tired at the moment, but I will certainly save what you've posted...

    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    I'm making a pair of sailor pants, and I have to add about 3 inches to the waist, possibly more to the tummy area (grr, I've gained weight!). Should I add the 3 inches to the waist in strips along the seams? This is my mock up pair. There are two front center seams, and of course two side...

    My wardrobe...

    Gorgeous! It's amazing how fabric can make one garment look immensely different.

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    That works :D My boyfriend uses pomade too, and I used it once. I don't like it so much though because his stuff is really hard to get out, but his isn't waterbased either.

    ANNOUNCEMENT: Fedora Lounge Launches a Magazine

    I would say mine arrived today, but it's already the wee hours of the morn'! Well, in any case, I got it and I'm LOVING it! I love the wit, class, reviews, tips... everything! It seems so much more mature than the other things I've read, and that's just awesome. When I first picked it up today...

    ANNOUNCEMENT: Fedora Lounge Launches a Magazine

    I'm thinking maybe it's taking so long because of the Holidays and it being the first issue? I'm also having issues with another magazine that I am subscribed to.

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    I hope it helps you guys out :D I'm in the process of making more videos. The tulle wasn't toooo bad because it was just skinny strips of it, but it was lengthy, and a bit confusing.

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    Hmm, I'm a little confused. It may be that I'm American, but I have no idea what "fringe" is when referring to hair. I'm assuming it's like layering or bangs?[huh] Oh nevermind! I did some researching and found out that it is called "bangs" in the US and Canada. So to answer your question, yes...

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    You're completely welcome! :D I'm so glad this is helping! Also, if any of you feel that you want to save the video to your computer, you can use this nifty website to snag it - http://www.keepvid.com and post the URL address in there, and voila. You'll have to download a converter, or a flash...

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    I've never tried fingerwaves, but if I get the inclination and figure them out, I will make a video on it :D Or maybe someone who is on here can? I used my digital camera, a video conversion software called RAD Video Tools (for turning a .mov file into a .avi file), and Windows Movie Maker.

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    I'm so glad making the video helped! I had seen other videos before on how to tease hair, and put hairsticks in so I was hoping this would really help. I'm a visual learner too, so that's one reason why I've been making videos. (I have been trying to make basic sewing videos too) ~landgirl~...

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    Surely! I believe so. I've done it plenty of times with a pompadour before. Albeit, I used gel and my hair was more than damp. I really think it will work with damp hair. I don't do it with completely dry hair. I used hairspray first to get my reverse rolls to stay, so really, my hair was damp...

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    I hope you guys are successful! It's difficult until it just clicks, that's all I can really say. Please post pictures! I have long hair too, and I twist it around my fingers first, I know you aren't supposed to do that with pincurls, but I did because it's just so long I CANNOT just wheel it...

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    Thanks gals :D At first when I had tried doin this, I didn't grab enough hair from the sides, so it looked kinda weird having this roll and then straight flat hair, so I grabbed up more from the side instead of just the bang area. I didn't realize how simple this was to do until I finally tried...

    I finally tried reverse rolls!

    And it worked :D I'm so excited that I know how I like my hair to be now. All I need now is the wardrobe to fit it. I feel funny with my hair up like this and I'm dressed in a t shirt and blue jeans. ETA: I made a video to show you how :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9FQ4qvSUyM

    Jive Dancing?

    There are plenty of dance videos you can order out there, but I don't know if you guys would like that. I know there are studios elsewhere too, but I have no idea of particular studios to recommend. Here are some websites that sell the videos I was suggesting...
