Just buttoning up the next batch of cushions.
Love this tool. Especially on heavy denim where the denim resists and squeaks, and the buttons thunk into place, as they both adjust to their new way of life.

@Chap so sorry Jens, that’s heartbreaking x

@ROman

@goosehd how about this one -
It was really busy in hemming this morning, but someone wasn’t pulling their weight…

Ginger nuts.
Both useless.
Both awesome.
Both sleep wherever they want.

Hamilton on the podium though! Would like to see him come at least second. With all the chaos anything’s possible in this year’s farce.

Back at it…with a new sticker

@Matt and Katie - thank you so much for hosting. It’s been an absolutely fantastic weekend You’ve endeared yourselves again and Baltimore to our hearts in more ways than one and we look forward to returning again one day.
To everyone else, it’s been so good to see you all again or meet you for the first time. What a time we’ve had!
We’re on the plane and just waiting for the groundsmen with their big screwdrivers to fix the floor behind us. Another man (not Steve) has said he’d hold on to me if I went through the floor See you on the other side! x

Breakfast recommendation - Blue Moon Cafe
Another crazy menu but the food, atmosphere and server Nikki make it a great experience

@Appfaff ok - going by your measurements, I would think a 1.5” cuff would look in proportion for your size. That would make a cut line of 34.5” which, without looking at an actual pair, should be doable.

Traditional cuffs are 1.75” (which may be possible too) and if you want a bold look then 2” (doubt we’d have enough fabric in the leg to do this.)

If you want to place an order and add a note to say we’ve spoken about this in the forum and whether you want a slim or deep cuff. Then the customer service team will pick out the nearest pair to your desired waist measurement and the longest leg.
I can then look at them and advise exactly what size traditional cuff you’d get before we cut them. We’d send you a picture of it roughly folded so you can see the overall appearance and you can decide then.

@Alex @Appfaff @JoshC I think the weight would be fine but the trouser leg length may not. It would depend on your leg length, any taper in the trousers and your desired cuff height (by traditional cuff you’re meaning a full height cuff that’s doubled over?) If you let us know that and your waist, we can look at a pair and advise.

@olblue I’ll add to the list!

And so it begins. The final countdown!
Frantically sewing a wardrobe before I come (why do I do this every time?!)

Hopefully between Fri-Sun (and around celebration plans) would like to see Matisse at the BMA, do a little fabric, vintage and record shopping, a quick harbour tour, and a vinyl bar or two.

@Matt I noted Sound Garden from your first post. I’ve looked at Idle Hour bar and Fallout Books & Records too - any good?

@ARNC perfect!

@ARNC

@Oaktavia @Jord I have been looking at these, thank you, and have added them into the mix. Keep your eyes peeled!

I’m a huge Lewis fan, so I’m still rooting for him. Saw him win the championship in Abu Dhabi and I’m more than happy to go for a drink with him anytime.

Who’s looking forward to the new Saudi track with a 20-storey high first corner. Get me in that crazy swimming pool!
