I use these pattern hooks that I got locally from Imogene + Willie here in Nashville. I've tried to source different ones or even make my own, but for $3 a piece they are hard to beat.

Made an XHS morale patch for my Goruck from hem cutoff scraps.

@T4920 said in BROTHERHOOD OF BIB:

Still holding about for a Hickory bib re-release, or a lucky find on the secondary market..

I'd 100% arrive in Hamburg head to toe in that fabric

Oh yea?

I have a lot, but the ones that jump out first are:

This UHF I have where the lines match up perfectly on the back collar, yoke, and back panel:

How the panels on all IH shirts are always perfectly mirrored. Most notably on UHF pockets:

And how the lines are pattern matched perfectly on seams:

If you just need some time alone, tell your kids that you're in time out and you'll be back in 10 minutes.

My Grandfather was a pilot and a navigator in the Navy and Air Forces during WWII. The plane he was on went down somewhere over the Philippines in 1945, and he floated in the ocean for a few days before being rescued. Somewhere over the years, the Type A-11 that he wore (and was wearing at that time) found it's way into my hands. It wasn't working, and is rusted out in areas (obvs) but has always meant a lot to me. I finally found another one from the same maker (Elgin) and the same year (1944) and decided to pick it up. It is also in perfect working order and has a period-correct olive watch band on it! Beyond stoked to be wearing this piece and think of Grandpop every time I put it on!

Here's his original watch, which I have on a shelf on our family gallery wall:

And here is the one I just picked up:

Local denim makers here in Nashville, Imogene + Willie, hosted a Pinewood Derby race in their backyard on Thursday night. I entered on a whim and won first place.

Also, when naming and painting my car, I learned that there were different spelling of Selvage and Selvedge depending on the country. The more you know!

Me waiting for someone else from Nashville to join the forum

Well, someone will spend those dollars and get the bug, then they'll eventually find their way here to the real thing.

@endo was out for lunch with a buddy the day he died, and he was talking about how great eraserhead was. I watched it that night and thought, wow this is the worst movie I have ever seen.

Speaking of Kid A, check out the cover of Kid A by Punch Brothers if you’ve never heard it.

Mandolin, violin, upright bass, banjo, acoustic guitar

I enjoyed Breaking Bad, but never watched any of those other shows. Not because I didn't like them, but just because I don't have the time or desire to start and watch a 5+ season show at this point in my life. Especially ones where I keep hearing something along the lines of "you just have to get through the first couple seasons, then in the middle of season three it starts to get good!"

Hard pass to that.

Other shows that fall into that category for me are Lost and Mad Men.

@Go-For-Chill Which cut are you wearing? I know the 634 had a zippered version (IH-634Z)

My very kind and loving in-laws picked me up an IHE-19 black from IHUK for Christmas. Just had my first chance to take it out for a spin today and am loving it!

It got broken into 6 pieces during shipment. Send it back!

@goosehd thank ya kindly

@Graham niceeeeee thanks! my haves list has been updated and complete (finally!)

Ha we just got a few small flurries here in Nashville. My mom in FL was hitting me up last night asking if we were bracing for the big storm. I had no idea what she was talking about. Looks like you got it!

between a 666 and a 634. So, a 650?
