XOXOX’s

Posted by: malke.y on: December 29, 2010

It’s so funny how something as trivial as a hug can mean so much. On Sunday I went to work for the first time in a while and was happily given hugs by some of my dear quilting friends.  Thank you all for the lift!

Fall cleaning

Posted by: malke.y on: November 21, 2010

I’ve been trying to keep up with a ‘block of the month’ group, but so far I haven’t been too successful.  Instead of making one of each block, I thought I would be real bright and make 2, so I would have 2 more quilts to give to the grandkids [since I don't think I [...]

Conspiracy to make me sleep?

Posted by: malke.y on: September 13, 2010

Its funny how I always thought one sewing machine was enough and never understood the need to have more than one.  That was before I became a quilter and find deep satisfaction in my work.  Well to get to the point.  my Pfaff is on the fritz, I lost the pedal to my new Bernina, and I can’t figure [...]

Everyone thinks (and hopes!) they are different and unique.  We all want to feel that we maybe are a little bit different than the next guy.  So, I was sitting and eating my brunch at work, which I very often do, and a young girl of about 11 said she also eats Cheerios with chocolate chips.  Now imagine [...]

My (CENSORED) Burn-Out Entry

Posted by: malke.y on: February 2, 2010

I’m having [complaining] burn-out. It’s again the time of year for me to start thinking about another newsletter. I came up with the great idea of not sending out a whole newsletter but instead only a postcard with a burning match on it. The idea was nixed by one and all, too bad.

A Wonderful Letter Sent to Me.

Posted by: malke.y on: August 9, 2009

Somebody, who will remain anonymous, send me this wonderful letter.

“This may not quite qualify as ‘quiltresting’ or as material you would want to share with your readership, but I MUST share it with you!

Another not my week story. We went out to eat yesterday and although it looked like rain, my husband said we should walk and we would make it back before the “2 minute” rain. Needless to say, the sky opened up just as we left and G-d left the hose on. We were soaked thru and thru.

Funny Story with My Glasses (wasn’t funny at the time!)

Posted by: malke.y on: July 24, 2009

I wear glasses to see anything, without them, the world is not rosey but blurry. Tuesday night I fell asleep in my lounge chair eating popcorn and listening to a book. I always listen to books from the library when I’m quilting because, besides my kids, they are my loves.
