Comment on Shave ice?? What the heck is shave ice? by Cindy Powell

Cindi,
I can’t thank you enough for your very kind words and for sharing your love of shave ice and for Kukui’s on your blog. You say it all so eliquently. Besides being a quilter, you should think about becoming a writer (not just of a blog but of books). You have a wonderful gift. Your visit has blessed me tremendously and I am so in awe of the people that God sends my way who encourage me, especially at times when I’m fearing whether or not I have what it takes to make it successful. Your visit has encouraged me to think that maybe I DO! Again, thank you sooooooooooooo much!! When your finished with your spring cleaning, I would be interested in talking with you about making a couple T-shirt quilts. God’s blessing be upon you and all that you do. Sincerely, Cindy Powell

Comment on Retired! by Carolyn Owens

Way to go! I retired(only because the phone company was downsizing) 10 years ago at 50. went back to work at a sewing factory 2 years later and got laid off after 5 years because of the economy, Start my new job on Monday. In between jobs I have sewed until I was cross eyed. Very apprehensive about this…if it doesn’t work out at least I will have tried. Love Lolly’s and Yoders’ planning a trip in the fall.

Comment on Who was Joann, and where has she gone?? by Maggi

Every time I go in Joann’s I vow never to go in again. I always come out madder than a wet hen for all the same reasons you stated. One time I asked a lady at the fabric counter if they had variegated embroidery floss and she had no idea what it was!!!!

Hi Maddie! The bad news is, I have no Hobby Lobbies in my area. The good news is, I do have plenty of good local quilt shops, an awesome regional chain called Craft Warehouse, and Fabric Depot, the Mother Lode of fabric stores. I feel pretty lucky, compared to some people I’ve talked to!

I hear you with Joann’s! I hate how they have removed brand name items and substituted their own Joann brand, but kept the package SO similar, you don’t know until you get home and it is such an inferior product. I’m talking specifically about stuffing, quilt batting, and I can’t think what else. Try Hobby Lobby. I also hate how they have run the other fabric stores out of business in my area.
