I agree Melwen!
How about some chocky and berry muffin action this morning!

Me?
Yes, I thought you might like the colors of that rucksack.
(Greetings from Sardegna.)
Ah ha! Got it!
Not sure on the orange though😺😁
Send us a pic!
I always wanted to visit there.

After an ocean swim after much sweaty running I got the beast
of all chafing as I set off again!My advice is rinse your nether region in fresh water and dry well.
Dry really well.

Walkin' Yes, Ich wollte den zukünftigen Rucksack aus Dyneema nähen. Oder kann ich schon irgendwo ALUULA bestellen?
If you find some Aluula can you tell me?
I thought I had some but the person couldn't be convinced to give me some. Minimum orders required of quite large amounts.
There's a thread on here:
that discusses a lot of the current material offerings of you're interested.
Cheers

Mittagsfrost 202g
Allerdings ist das Softtyvek echt flimsy. Die erste Naht ist auch schon durch. Allerdings weiß ich nun, das meine Schnittmuster passen, die ich mir aus mehreren Rucksäcken zusammengebastelt habe. Ich schätze die Literzahl auf ca. 25 L.
Looks good JayJay.
Are you planning another version in a more robust material now you've sorted your pattern?

Thank you Walkin'
I never would have thought sewing a jumper could be so easy. How much simpler would it be if you just use a pre-made pattern? 🤔🤣
Your jumper looks great! Did you use up scraps or did you select different fabrics with varying degrees of warmth? I'm actually thinking about sewing a hoodie with a 1/4 zipper and different fabric weights: Alpha Direct 80 for the back, parts of the underarms, and upper hood; Alpha Direct 120 for the front of the torso, upper sleeves, and side hood panels; and polypropylene strips along the sides of the torso. I am also thinking to add Pertex on the shoulders.
Another idea is to make a t-shirt with short sleeves (Alpha Direct 120)... Or a jacket with zipp-off sleeves.
I have no idea if that's really a good idea. But the worst part is that once I've sewn it, I wouldn't need any of my other fleece sweaters anymore...
Imagining, designing, cutting and sewing your own creation is a very nice skill to have.
Ta, I wanted something a bit spiffy with the mix of colours-they aren't off-cuts, all are A85.
If you want to see some of my other 'colour mixed' items sing out.
I was gifted the alpha about seven years ago when it wasn't really a big thing and you can see (probably) the inconsistency in the weight/tranparency that you got back then.
As you are now a Cutter rather than a sewist I reckon you could have a crack at all your ideas!
Trouble is now the ridiculous cost of alpha. It used to be cheap as chips.
The weights I wear most these days are A60 and A120.
Looking very much forward to what you create next.
Cheers

Beim oben verlinkten Ultrastoff ist zu beachten, dass es sehr vorteilhaft ist, wenn man eine Kevlarschere hat
Auf jeden Fall Kevlarschere! Wer viele Projekte mit dem Stoff umsetzt: Der mikroverzahnte elektronische Cutter von ExTex funktioniert wirklich sehr gut. Ist leider sehr teuer. Hab meinen glücklicherweise über Kleinanzeigen erstanden.
Und ich finde ihn für Flaschentaschen fast zu nachgiebig.
Ich würde hier mittlerweile einen Kordelzug einbauen. Um den Stretch zu haben, falls nötig, aber ihn auch einzudämmen, selbst falls der Stoff irgendwann ausleiert.
Agree on the kevlar scissors.
The drawstring also, for when the elastic loses it's elasticity.

Great job Sundance and daughter.
I hope your daughter has a great time in Portugal.

The worst is done!
It looks very good.

It was eating the salt and sandflies off my runners and dancing all over me while I was having a cuppa.

Once you get a more appropriately sized tent and especially a lighter Ruckie you'll drop about 500+ grams so I would just use what you've got and work out what you don't need in the clothing area and keep discarding stuff as you go.
If you find you need all your clothing you'll need to buy lighter stuff that does the same job.
Have fun go wild.
