I did that for a while until the roommates and neighbors got louder D: It hurt to wear them at first but I got used to them and now I'm pretty dependent on them. Even when there isn't noise I feel like something isn't right unless I have them XD

I would definitely do some practice runs with scrap fabric first before starting to use the shirts you want. They also might be difficult to work with if they're somewhat stretchy jersey but maybe you could sew them onto a more stable fabric to use as a base?

Nuu! Kirin speak of lovely randomness with us!

Damn. D: If only allergies didn't exist.

See you later Kirin and DJ!

You may be allergic to shell fish, in general. My co-worker is allergic to shell fish. Sometimes, we gotta be real careful when eating seafood.

I would totally use a quilt because I love blankets of all kinds and have like 4 on my bed at once XD But I just don't wear the shirts - so a quilt is a perfect idea!

Zig is very thankful that shoe doesn't have any allergies.

Oh definitely! I wouldn't want to mess up the shirts D: Most of the tutorials I've seen use a base fabric!

yeah allergies can be a pain. im actually really lucky to not have any serious ones. my boyfriend clearly does though.

Nah, just the ones that aren't really fresh. I can eat shrimp, crab, and all seafood with no problems, but when I come across the not-really-fresh dried shrimp, I start itching all over.

I have two quilts that were made for me. Unfortunately they're both really too small to use... One is too short length wise but quite wide, that's the one my mom made me with embroidered cats. The other one is long enough but too narrow. It's very colorful and a friend of my mom made it for me for Christmas one year.

That's a good idea! Would be great for my "Office" room.

I'm allergic to certain make-up binders. I'm fine with natural pigments but if they're cream based I go puffer fish.

Don't know if most of you know - but until recently I have hives all up and down my arms and legs and ankles and feet and hands and fingers. I had to take a patch allergy test where I couldn't shower for a week, etc. And they told me I'm allergic to something that is used as a fragrance as well as a flavoring thing. Because of that I can't use perfume or drink soda. I was allergic to something else too. But neither of those things were causing my hives - we never figured it out >.< But it was job releated - once I quit my job and started teaching, they went away!

Huh... that's interesting. Well, a good interesting. XD

I'm lucky I don't have allergies. My sister is allergic to Penicillin and Morphine. It sucks when it comes down to things like dental surgery.

you should just be like me, make up free. its easier and cheaper! lol

My mom seems to be mildly allergic to monosodium glutamate, but that's not a healthy substance anyway to begin with...

MSG can also cause migraines.

Ow! Does that mean she has to go through them and all possible future surgeries with no pain killers?

Normally I am. I just use it for costume parties. :)

Woohoo - 50 posts in here already but I'm starting to fall asleep D: XD

I'm allergic to a lot of things. Soaps and stuff like that, toothpastes, make up, and cleaning chemicals. I have lupus so it's like there's always something new that my body decides to hate all the sudden.
