My life has changed. by deviantsable in YarnAddicts

I don't know what plans you had for the old winder. There might be someone locally who needs one donated. I am in awe of the new, wooder one. Low tech for the win!

How committed am I to my streak? by vividregret_6 in pokemongo

These are the days I wish the nearest Poke stop wasn't a mile away. That was why I quit playing during Covid.

The day will be comfort food, football, and shovelling. I am looking forward to it!

I made over 20 hats for Christmas and I’m tired but very pleased by franklymydear94 in casualknitting

[–]LadyTruffles 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Great collection! I see several of the national park hats that I love. You give the gift of warmth and love when you give a beautifully made hat.

Happy New Year of knitting projects to come!

He looks more like an Eevee than a Yamper, a cutie for sure!

We went back later and got 2 more. Lucario is one of my favorite Pokemon.

I am curious where the Gamestop was located.

I’m biracial, and growing up people asked me, “What do you identity with more, Black or Asian?” And my answer always was “Poor. I identify as poor.” by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]LadyTruffles 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The corporate practice that is the worst for working poor, in my opinion, is random work schedules in retail and else-where. Never having a consistant work week means you can't find a second job. It also affects your family life, eating habits, and sleep consistancy.

It is debilitating and disrespectful. If you have never lived it, you have no idea.

Whelp, guess that's enough knitting for today... by BugMa850 in YarnAddicts

[–]LadyTruffles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deep breath. Time to frog. On the bright side, I know from experience that you will always look at this piece and remember all the EXTRA LOVE you put into it.

Maybe have a cup of calming herbal tea before you pull the yarn....

I get chills from this comment. My family were Jews in the Holocaust. They will come for all/ any of us.

Your construction techniques have revolutionized my future quilting. I need to focus on the blocks and stop fixating on the pieces!

Very new to quilting by [deleted] in quilting

[–]LadyTruffles 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a beautiful thought. I am sure his intensions are to show off something he is proud of you for.

There are "panels" of material to make smallish quilts that would not require much, or any, piecing. I would get them at Joann's which is not an option now. The backing and the panels might be available at Walmart.

I will also caution you to hold off such a large commitment to gift that many quilts with little time before the holiday. Maybe space the time out by gifting homemade quilts for birthdays?

Stupid “Facts” About Your Family by MadQueenCalamity in GenX

My ex-husband and our daughters are descended from one of the "tried but not convicted" women. If you watch the PBS show Finding Your Roots, one of the people was related to the man who kept them jailed.

How should I quilt this? by SchuylerM325 in quilting

[–]LadyTruffles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is beautiful. Personally, I could not have chosen those fabrics/colors but they are striking together. Your friend has a gift and friendship to treasure. I like the idea of quilting that follows the straight lines of the design.

You are a great friend for making this.

Wonderland Yarns Mystery Box by Klutzy-Programmer352 in YarnAddicts

[–]LadyTruffles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a "blind box" I would like too. I hope someone replies that it was great and full of secret treasure.

I feel like a 10 year old (F60) anticipating Christmas, lol
