“how to: shoelaces

I recently found myself in need of some shoelaces and decided it would take less time to make them than to find an interesting, colorful pair. Turns out that they’re fun and easy to make, and they require very little fabric. And they would make a great little stocking stuffer!”

Simple, easy tutorial. Fun fun fun.

Ian's Shoelace Site - Thread & Glue Aglet

“Binding the lace end with thread and glue produces a very strong aglet. It’s a small version of “whipping”, which is used on larger ropes.”

Super-easy way to finish the ends of home-made bias tape shoelaces without having to make tape aglets or buy them! I gotta try this.

Button hole stitching.

2. Garak fanfic writers. :D

(seriously, think about his hands, think about his state of mind… the way he tilts his head, the way he leans over the fabric… the needle is very fine, his hands are thinly scaled, and his concentration is absolute…
