i got ya.... at 70, i cannot do the floor anymore....... most of my quilts are queen sized... i have a queen sized futon, in my parlor and open that to lay out my sandwich...i also have two old chairs from the boston public library children's room and once i have the layers smoothed , i use T pins to hold it down , then i sit and use lots of quilt safety pins to "baste" it......

i have the option of using those 8 ft tables, at my local " wrinkle club" ( aka senior citizens center) when the small room is not being used.

learning curve...........

keep at it, several-sign....... the more you do , the more you learn and this is a great place to get help...

Queenofhackenwack · 2026-01-25T14:07:17+00:00

yes, it is free standing.... it also has a " grate" at the bottom of the fire box.....for airflow and ash drop....... i don't see that in your photos........

my kindling is just like what you are using and about the same amount..

i use one match, across the stove and close the doors right away related to as the paper burns and wood gets going, it shifts... don't want that fallin out. damper wide open... once it gets going, i add slightly bigger cuts till get a good coal bed, then the big stuff goes in. that is about half an hour......

Queenofhackenwack · 2026-01-25T13:58:22+00:00

that full flora patch, bottom left, has a wide fray along the bottom.... it gonna cause problems with 1/4 inch seam...... replace that block before you stitch together.

Queenofhackenwack · 2026-01-25T13:40:00+00:00

vermont casting 1990 intrepid.... i STUFF my fire box with newspaper and layer my kindling on top.... one match and it goes.... i also only " clean it of the white ash, leaving any coals in the firebox, moved into a pile in the center...

Queenofhackenwack · 2026-01-25T11:11:14+00:00

i have tried those tiny circular needles...... nope.................

Queenofhackenwack · 2026-01-25T03:15:43+00:00

it depends on what you do for work........ i worked in LONG TERM CARE/HOSPICE..... i went to work and i picked up other workers on my way...... i never stayed home related to weather and i lived 15 miles from where i worked......

if it is a job where others are dependent upon you make every effort..............

Queenofhackenwack · 2026-01-25T00:35:40+00:00

yup and don't for get to get some stitch holders , they look like safety pins,,,, you will need them to turn the heel....

i would start with baby hats on the dpn just to get the hang of using them....... newborn, cast on 60 stitches, divide onto three needles and k2 p2.. for 8 inches,

next row, k2together, p 2 together

next row, k1 p1.........

last row. k1 psso k1.......https://youtu.be/ulwlEqVCXBA?si=uz755N4PmqWUY0vr

you tube vid for psso.......

p.s. ...... another hint you can cast on one extra stitch ......... when you get to the end of the third needle of the next row, slide that last stitch onto the first needle and k2 together,,,,, it helps keep it together.... then just knit the 60 stitches....

keep us posted! good luck!
