This is a custom pair of tuxedo pants that need about an inch out of the crotch. The construction of this garment is new to me and I just want to make sure I’m thinking this thru correctly. I’m going to undo the crotch stitching enough to take the seam in and then put back together. The designer said to just move the front pieces in which seems like it would make a mess. I’m thinking it needs to be done in the standard way. No pressure here, custom made tux for wedding in Cabo next weekend that he just got in the mail from the designer yesterday. 😬. Beautifully made garments and I don’t want to screw up by over thinking this. TYIA.

So 4/19 I slipped in the bathroom and broke my collarbone, sling for 6 weeks and thought all was well. Nope. Still in lots of pain so off to orthopedic dr, took an xray to check healing ( had one at 3 weeks in and was told I was healing “fine”) and it’s not. Plus I probably have torn rotator cuff as well. It was a big fall and I also fractured my tailbone. So here we are waiting for insurance to approve the CT for my bone and MRI for cuff. They didn’t tell me not to use my arm, wear my sling or anything. Taking pain meds daily just to get thru. I have a feeling I’m getting surgery to repair both. Anyone been thru it? Advice? How long is this recovery. I know I’m going to be bored out of my mind and going to stock up on puzzles, coloring pages and things I can do with one arm. Thank god this is my left and I’m right. handed or I’d be so screwed. Here’s my xray-it’s painful and now I know why.

As the title says I’m trying to make chicken earrings. I’ve practiced brick stitch but I’m never satisfied with the first row. Any helpful tips woukd be appreciated. Pic isn’t my work, I’m using it for inspiration only.
