The Diary of a Mad Bun Woman

[Fancy77]

I just finished this quilt on Sunday. I have 6 nieces and nephews so I am trying very hard to get 6 quilts done for all of them by x-mas. I truly dont know if I will b able to accomplish 6 twin sized quilts in such a short time. So if I dont get them done by x-mas I will give them out to them next xmas. Thank goodness quilts dont go out of style lol

That is AWESOME!!VERY NICE!!Do you have a machine that does the writing?

 

[Fancy77]

Yes I have an embroidery machine. I want a better one tho, but the one I want is 3,200 for a used. I do everything by machine. I do want a "Gammel" or a "Tin Lizzy" they are long arm quilters which will do a lot 4 me but Hubby put the kabash on that idea...its only 10,000 for a used one lol I know my Hobby is quite spendy. But if I get the better equipment I can start my own quilting business and make my money back...slowly in this economy but oh well I will b happy lol

 

[SweetSassy]

All the words and equipment are foreign to me. LOl. Hopefully some day you'll get what you really want.

Denise, your quiltwork is wonderful. I wish I had skills in this area of crafts. Or any area of crafts LOL! My mom sews and has all of the machines and she also knits. I can sew a loose button on and that's about I can do. It's one of those lost arts of my generation of the family. It's areal shame. I am so jealous of you!

How are the fur kids?

I have the Oxbow hay. and it is doing well.

I stopped using oxbow hay a couple weeks ago. My husband has stopped honking like a Humvee in his sleep. He must have been allergic to the oxbow dust! We switched to kleenmama and won't be revisiting oxbow any time soon! I can finally get some sleep. lol

 

[Fancy77]

Good to know Helen. I have bad allergies, I sneeze at a picture of a cat or hay or whatever. lol

I haven't heard of kleenmama...but i will look into it!!!

 

[kirbyultra]

I have a big thread about it lol I'll send when I get home.
Google Kleenmama's hayloft. Their hay is fabulously clean and dustfree. Buns love it so far and I love how it doesn't make me and hubby sneeze. Kirby loves bluegrass and Timothy 3rd cut!

 

[Fancy77]

good to know I will google here I come lol thx a bunch!!!

U rock Helen thx!!! I did find the Kleenmamas hayloft I was in shock with the shipping tho

 

[kirbyultra]

The shipping is hefty - I totally agree! But I found that if I buy 30lbs or more, shipping is much more worth it than smaller sizes, it's still a pretty good price per lb. I pay about $1.10 a lb for my 50lb of dusty Oxbow. The Kleenmama came out like a little more per pound, which I still think is well worth it for a much cleaner hay and better health for myself and my hubby. Kirby eats a ton more kleenmama hay than oxbow. Toby is learning to like it. Toby, oddly, likes his hay harder. Kleenmama hay seems to be softer, a bit more flexible.

 

[Fancy77]

I am very thankful for the info!!!!!
