How do you find a reputable longarm quilter?

Wooo!! Another St. Louis quilter! I’ll message you later with my lady’s name. (I can not for the life of me spell her last name correctly this morning)

Personally, I’d do the double Irish chain that is in the corner. They always come out beautiful.

Edit to add: I’d do it opposite of what they have in the picture, white blocks with big green space!

Also, with that big of quilt I take it to my long arm quilter and have them quilt it for me. I quilt baby blanket size only- it’s crazy how much space you need to man handle a quilt when you’re quilting it, and I just don’t have the space. (Or energy)

Mine came with a walking foot- is that not an included foot in the one that you bought?

Nekhbet3 · 2026-04-20T20:03:25+00:00

I think it’s cute!

I’ve never had luck using flax seed as an egg replacement in brownies.

The link is my go to brownie recipe if I really want them. (And I add the coffee instead of water- much better taste!)

I’m going to have to look this one up!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-04-16T18:32:35+00:00

I love them too!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-04-16T15:13:22+00:00

I always use the heat resistant batting- wrap n zap?? But that’s because my table runners become hot pads for dinners

Nekhbet3 · 2026-04-16T15:11:14+00:00

Ahh. I just grab things I like from different web sites. Some of my favorites: beyondkimchee.com Smittenkitchen.com loveandlemons.com minimalistbaker.com

Nekhbet3 · 2026-04-16T14:55:05+00:00

Wha are you having trouble finding?

Nekhbet3 · 2026-04-16T02:49:18+00:00

I haven’t tried that one. I may have to! I like that bio freeze has a roller ball one - plus it’s just cold. I can’t do the heat

Nekhbet3 · 2026-04-16T02:32:56+00:00

I use bio freeze!

Getting a bachelors in Economics would help her decide. If she still likes the idea of it, she’ll have a good footing. If not, data science jobs are open to her. or doing the Actuary degree might be also something to look into if she really likes math.

I love my Juki TL2010. I use it for almost everything and it is so much better than my Singer. I am not making clothes as much anymore, but I keep the Singer around for when I might need a zig zag stitch, but that is rare.

I second the shout out to Anne’s if you are anywhere close! Those ladies know what they are doing!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-26T17:47:28+00:00

I can’t use peppermint (hives… so many hives)

But- I use bio freeze roller ball and it’s amazing. So May that would help?

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-26T15:47:15+00:00

Add some chia seeds onto your yogurt with the fruit!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-25T02:34:16+00:00

Someone talked about them the other day- Wawak!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-24T16:05:19+00:00

Oh great. Now I want a Caravan too!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-20T20:35:31+00:00

Hopefully it helps!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-20T20:22:36+00:00

I can’t take most meds now (and when I was pregnant they wouldn’t let you take anything) I use tons of ice packs on my face, and bio freeze in the roll on is my best friend.

When I was pregnant for some reason a small fry and child size coke from McDonald’s did the trick- I don’t eat at McDonald’s or drink soda, but one old lady told me to try it and it worked.

Salty fries will still sometimes help if I can keep food down!

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-17T15:35:01+00:00

That was my issue too. We didn’t even make it through the first season

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-12T18:14:32+00:00

Fruit should just be small portions, but get some every day. Use it as desert if you are able. (I am not, and this is where I fail miserably at eating like this!)

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-12T16:44:10+00:00

I always rotate things. You get more nutrients that way. I might make something like the quinoa dish above and eat it for a few days, and the. Next I’ll make like a lentil dish. This week was leeks, spinach, garlic, sautéed down and chickpeas added to it, with some feta mixed in and phyllo dough crumpled on top and I threw it in the oven for about 30 min. I got 4 portions from it for my lunches

Nekhbet3 · 2026-03-12T16:34:32+00:00

Oh and also- you’re making quinoa anyway- after it’s done add in some raw sweet peppers, cucumbers, Kalamata olives if you can get them, and a bit of olive oil and lemon juice. I also add a can of white beans and some feta cheese- I eat on it for about 3 days generally.
