Me: OOh yes ! A video about how to use up fabric scraps
YouTubers: So I've had these mismatched 2 yards of fabric in my scraps bin for years ...
Me: :: Eyes the postage stamp and small envelope sized pieces of fabric in my scraps stash ::
LADY WORDS HAVE MEANINGS! YARDS* ARE NOT SCRAPS !
[* No - a 'few meters' are also not 'Scraps' FFS!]

@Faintdreams See also: videos about storage solutions for fabric that only ever seem to have suggestions for fat quarter size max
-
@thegiddystitcher oooooh yes ! That is also a hard side-eye from me.
People who were not Quilters - infamous fat quarter users - also need to store fabric !
Nothing against quilting, nor quilters nor fat quarters :)

@Faintdreams 2 meters is more than the amount that shops around here sell as suitable for one garment!
(which is based on the amount needed for a below-the-knee length conservative looking pencil skirt, which [insert rant here])
-
@Faintdreams @thegiddystitcher for a second I read that as if you had nothing against fat quilters, which I assume you also don't have
I need more sleep :D

@valhalla @thegiddystitcher have a nap :)
Yeah Fat Quarters is an unfortunate measurement shorthand, but I don't think linguistically it's going anywhere.

I deem everyone that does #Sewing / #YarnCraft math (eg making things from cloth or yarn) a #CraftWitch (irregardless of gender) and we are all AMAZING.
