"SINGAPORE – Work is almost complete on the 206km-long Deep Tunnel Sewerage System (DTSS) conceived in the 1990s, with tunnelling works done for its second phase.
[...]
The DTSS is designed to last 100 years, with a lower risk of contamination due to pipe damage."

I have some shirt remnants I was wondering if anyone had project suggestions for sleeves?

I was thinking about maybe an infinity scarf, but don’t think they’ll be long enough.
This is the shirt in question

I have some shirt remnants, I’ve made a cushion cover out of some of it, I’m planning on turning the rest of it into a cat blanket.

I was wondering if anyone had project suggestions for the sleeves?

I’d love to be able to use the whole shirt.

I completely understand and empathise with the people in this article who feel this is too little too late, but still, I will be very glad when plastic in wet wipes is banned.

Calling all and and otherwise-monikered folks into who like to (I'm covering my bases here): What kind of storage solutions do you use for sewing supplies and fabric?

I've accumulated a lot of random stuff over the years as I dreamed of actually acquiring a sewing habit, and now that I own a house I need to put it all in a rational order, but I haven't used the supplies enough to know what that would be!
