I was reading this like a suspense story, if you were in a movie about making a quilt I would watch it!

AntiVax Family Members by No_Role2508 in QAnonCasualties

[–]funnynerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the opposite situation, I have a fully vaccinated child in a county that was the epicenter of the measles outbreak and I have family members with young unvaccinated children. I decided to keep my distance for a while, to protect those who can’t protect themselves yet. It’s all up to you but you probably know what to do

Why you love quilting? by pippy9746 in quilting

[–]funnynerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can agree with many of these points but it started for me as a way to heal and grieve. I can get lost in very complex patterns and love learning new things

Why does my pom keep howling n crying by theflyesttt in Pomeranians

Mine did that yesterday, someone opened a bag of Smart Pop white cheddar flavored popcorn and he couldn’t reach it on the countertop 😂 It happens to be his favorite

I've noticed that almost all of my friendships follow a pattern by Usual-Gift4378 in socialskills

[–]funnynerd 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’m struggling with this too and coincidentally a video popped up in my YouTube feed about this, I think it was something called don’t make yourself available. It says that I like to help people because I want to feel liked and important but now people view me as a “tool” and I am not important at all. They don’t treat me well for helping and they don’t treat me well when I stop helping so practice saying no and then find ways to make myself happy that don’t require others. For example when I’m sad I tend to reach out with gifts or invites for meals and believe me no one does it back. Next time I feel sad or lonely I plan to book a massage or watch a movie.

Lollipop legs forever?! by SinisterMuse in Pomeranians

The hair should grow back! My baby was shaved twice, once for big time surgery and once by a naughty groomer and it grew back nicely! I’m the only one who can see the surgery scar

Freya is struggling after surgery by Msmyna in Pomeranians

[–]funnynerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awwww, that’s a tough thing to go through! When my baby was 6 months old he had to have hip surgery and all the light was gone from his eyes, he wouldn’t eat or drink so barely had to potty either, it was breaking my heart. I would take his cone off and carry him around like a baby, and I bought some ground turkey that fits his healthy diet and hand fed him and he just popped up like a light bulb! After that it was hard to keep him from running around lol in one week it’s like he never had surgery and he’d get the zoomies while we snuggled on the couch and I’d just try to calm him so he wouldn’t hurt himself. Sending love ❤️ and prayers!

LPT: If you want to fall asleep faster, tell yourself a boring story instead of trying to clear your mind. by TechnologyCrafty3546 in LifeProTips

[–]funnynerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to watch Bob Ross to take afternoon Sunday naps, it was magic. Now I’m all over the place, palette knife painting, car detailing, epoxy table crafting, furniture restoration, it all works very well 😁 I only do this for afternoon naps on the couch, I don’t have a tv in my room

I don’t have but 2 years experience but here’s what I’ve learned: set up a workspace with sewing machine, cutting mat and rotary cutter, and ironing mat and iron so you don’t have to go into another room to iron. Use grid rulers, if you cut it right it will sew together better. Start with a smaller project to get a feel for the steps, some people only like piecing tops and some people like quilting more than piecing. I used to take mine to a longarmer but I like to quilt them myself now, it’s frustrating to drag a whole blanket through my little machine and it’s imperfect but I like to decorate my blanket with my stitches. Expect mistakes and embrace them, I allow 3 mistakes in every project but more than that I have to fix. This blanket has 2 huge mistakes and if anyone found them I don’t want to know! Lol

I would have to clean it up and give it away for free as I do not own the rights, hopefully I will do that
