RE: I think I collect hobbies (as a hobby) - Ladies of Hive Contest #71

Hi Buckaroo

Thanks for the kind words ☺️

Oh I think you and I could blow a few hundred bucks at a stationary store. Heat embossing is captivating, it's like using liquid gold or silver on paper like alchemy.

I've worked at a fair few places and trading loveless work for your lifesource (essentially) is just not worth it. I'd rather be poor and do what makes my heart sing.

So if I need a quilt made, I'm commissioning you ok? 😊

Sort:  

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat??!!!! I said I could sew I didn't say I could sew QUILTS!! Quilting is gorgeous but it is quite an art and very time consuming.

Yes to poor and your heart singing. But isn't it sad that people define success and happiness by a job? I mean are you really poor or do you maybe not have the cash flow that many do BUT you are rich in so many other areas that really matter? And that makes your heart sing

you maybe not have the cash flow that many do BUT you are rich in so many other areas

Music to my ears! I just want to live a simple life, be able to make pretty things and enjoy pretty sunsets with the people I love. I don't need extravagence.

Lol ok I'll let you pass on the quilting although I know that you can do it if you can sew wedding dresses. It is super time consuming, I've got the starters of a quilt from 4 years ago, it's probably going to be ready for Lory's 21st birthday party...or her 40th. We'll see.

Have a wonderful evening and give your chickens some koppiekraps from us 😄

Oh my word. Her 40th?!!! In that case I better help you finish it!

These are the koppiekrappies we have today. Maybe Lory will get as excited as my kiddos about new chicks

OH MY GOSH! I'm the one that is getting so excited, those chicks are too cute! I would just want to snuggle them all day long! The last time I visited my friend Monique, her one hen had just hatched out a clutch and I basically adopted them for the day - I almost started crying when I had to give them back.

Yes, the quilt will give us a good excuse to get together, talk nonsense, make sewing & paper things, cuddle baby chickens and eat chocolate 😃

Or just talk nonsense and eat chocolate!
