Heyyyy, I got a faulty link to sign up (said invalid invite code) and I can’t find any other way to contact you all! Is there an email I should write to instead?

🤣💀🎉

Yesss! So beautiful and I love that you hand pieced it 😍!

Stunning!!

Amazing, thank you! That makes sense about EPP. I will actually have enough solar power to run an electric sewing machine, just not enough for an iron since they pull sooo much energy. Luckily a family friend has a set of sad irons I can use. 🤞 I learn quick and don’t burn a hole in anything 😜

Have you tried online mail services like stamps dot com or pirate ship? I’ve used both, but pirate ship is free and less glitchy in my experience. They make it easy to compare shipping prices, give discounted shipping fees, and you can pay them and print your label and not have to wait in line at PO

Thank you! I looked into cordless irons but it seemed like they were meant to continually sit on a plugged in base every time you put the iron down? But I should look into it more to see if I missed something 🎉

Patchwork of your grandmothers quilt. This is a really beautiful project! Good luck with everything!

So beautiful!! I support your desire to hand quilt it, both as a hand quilter myself and also to keep the continuity of her beautiful hand stitched piecing 😍. I have a quilt top that my great grandma hand pieced that I will be slowly mending/reinforcing and then re-quilting one day and it’s so

Gorgeous!

🤣 as a quilter who dyes all the fabric I use, it’s pretty great tho 😜

So sweet!!

Yesss, just found that out! 😖🤪

And if you are still tired, maybe your bod is having issues with absorption. I’m taking mine with vitamin C (which helps with absorption) and still coming up low in my blood work 😳. Gonna try a couple more things but might have to go to IV iron next 😱. Good luck out there everybody! 🥳
