That’s where his lack of enthusiasm comes from.
The joke made me realize that he probably doesn’t want to get married. I let it go after I felt like I was nagging him to have an opinion on something He said he doesn’t care about the details at all. I don’t even need him to have initiative but an opinion would be nice.
AITAH?Įdit: I’ve talked with him about his lack of enthusiasm about anything. He said it was normal to joke about this. He was very upset that I called off the wedding and said he was just joking. We haven’t sent out RSVPs or booked too many vendors yet so I want to call it off before it becomes an even more expensive mistake. I talked to my fiancé and said that I’m going to call off the wedding plans and we could re-evaluate if he really wants to get married or even stay in this relationship. He wasn’t interested in getting married and I don’t want to marry someone who doesn’t enthusiastically want to get married. I decided we should call off the wedding for now. I felt really upset that he didn’t acknowledge my hard work in planning the wedding and because he joked that I was trapping him into marriage and that I pushed him into getting married. He said he was trying to enjoy his last days of freedom before I trapped him in the marriage. My fiancé joked that he didn’t lock me down, I locked him up. I was telling them some of my plans to cut costs down and my friend made a joke that it was a good thing my fiance locked me down because I’m a professional. My fiancé and our friends were talking about the wedding. His default response is “whatever you want.” So, I’ve had full creative freedom but I am a little sad he didn’t contribute to anything, even the color scheme. My fiance has ADHD and finds planning very boring. I work in the events industry and this sort of thing is my passion. It was a beautiful intimate proposal and I loved the idea of telling our future kids about his proposal. But if you don’t stuff the limbs too much, take it slowly, and work a few inches at a time, you’ll get there □ For all of that, I rated it a 3/10.My fiancé proposed three months ago. The hardest part is likely sewing the body, since the limbs are sewn in the seam so the stitching can get crowded.
The face fits into a 4″ x 4″ hoop if it sits diagonally, and there’s a muzzle file as well if you’re making a 3D snout. There are tips inside the pattern for sewing with apparel fabrics, like using stabilizer if your fabric is older or more delicate, or using a shorter stitch length for extra durability.Īs always, the pattern comes with applique templates to make the face in case you’re sewing by regular machine or by hand, but there are free embroidery files as well if you have an embroidery machine. And the templates are small enough that you should be able to cut straight from the clothing. So you’ll find you can make this bear from lots of different light to medium-weight clothing. In the samples you’ll see I have bears made from quilting cotton, a men’s flannel shirt, various knit scraps, and the classic minky. I also ensured that the pattern could be sewn entirely by machine if you wanted so the finished plush can stand up to lots of extra hugs! So you’ll find this pattern has some more darts than usual to add shaping. For this free pattern I was hoping it would be a bit of a two-for-one! I had requests for both a panda bear and a memory bear so I thought I’d combine them □ If you’ve never heard of them before, memory bears are a kind of stuffed teddy bear made with scraps of a loved one’s clothing to serve as a memento.įor this project, I made the pandas using lots of different apparel fabrics and made sure that the pattern would work well regardless of the kind of texture or stretch the fabric had.
