I'm going to be looking for updates from you on how you like it. This might be what I wanted. God bless Eleanor; she's the reason why many of us started quilting in the first place with her Quilt in a Day patterns. <br />Marsha quilterinmotion(at)gmail(dot)comQuilterinMotionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624854595176562054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-22594631568770478842015-09-15T11:11:27.845-04:002015-09-15T11:11:27.845-04:00I will be praying for Eleanor. senstrings (at ) y...I will be praying for Eleanor. senstrings (at ) yahoo (dot) comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-14290612880178094492015-09-15T10:47:01.773-04:002015-09-15T10:47:01.773-04:00I have a Misfit activity tracker that I love.

It works for me, but I would like something smallest, that I could flip to my clothes, or bra... <br /><br />I wear Easy Spirits.... My feet are extra tender, and Easy Spurit shoes are instantly comfortable... Love your new shoes, though... My small feet definitely limit what I can buy... No one carries 4.5's or 5's.... <br /><br />Prayers for EB... She is such a trooper... Can't imagine the quilting world without her...<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12857683968783531359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-82959423695376102162015-09-15T08:25:42.642-04:002015-09-15T08:25:42.642-04:00Love how you can change bands on your new Garmin! ...Love how you can change bands on your new Garmin!

I love my Fit Bit and when I lost my 1st one, I bought another. I don't want to have something on my wrist all the time and with FitBit put it in my pocket, or if no pockets, clip to bra strap. They have great customer service too if you contact with losing it. They sent a new one to a friend of mine recently when she told them. Sorry I didn't know that 3 years ago!<br /><br />Love your crumb stars. Was not able to join you at Quilt Cam last night, so I will watch it tonight.

(Artichoke Annies is supposed to be good.) Also, in Kirksville, there are two nice ones. (Lawson Hill Antiques Mall & Princess Emporium) I'm sure the 2 1/2 hour drive from STL to Kirksville will turn into a longer one after you make numerous stops along the way...<br /><br />I know you enjoy walking. Be sure to check out 1000 Hills State Park near Kirksville, close to where you will be speaking in Novinger. Beautiful trails, some paved. Free. Enjoy nature around our area. <br /><br />And as a side note: my friend wears her tracker on her ankle--maybe your Garman will work there when you treadle!<br /><br />See you soon!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02032945026110097975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-48651742965856729862015-09-14T12:43:22.813-04:002015-09-14T12:43:22.813-04:00Enjoyed your evaluation, Bonnie.

Tell Kristy to contact FitBit--they will probably give her a new band--they gave me a new case for my Zip.

I like the colors, too. Black isn't for me either. I read about Eleanor on FB and send my positive thoughts and prayers her way. I'll always be thankful for her QIAD shows on PBS when I lived way out in the middle of Nowhere with my littles all day and no ADULT to keep me company. My children did't appreciate her voice but I watched it every time I could. I was so happy to meet her in Puyallup at EXPO.

I wanted the "2" but could not get it to sinc to my phone, returned it to Best Buy and got the "original." Would have liked the back light, though. <br /><br />I am on a 95,000 step challenge, will be there or below until a knee problem gets corrected. The early sign-up for a 1/2 marathon in October might have been a waste of money. :-( <br /><br />Happy walking and treadling. <br /><br /><br />SJMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09868726331696904462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-29220748074736652952015-09-14T10:15:22.696-04:002015-09-14T10:15:22.696-04:00I switched from a fitbit to a garmin about 18 mont...I switched from a fitbit to a garmin about 18 months ago.

It is a bit 'bulky' on your wrist if you aren't used to wearing a watch but I really like the band clasp. It has never come off when catching on something(my DIL lost her Fitbit during the winter while getting out of her car, they found it after the snow melted in the spring). Anyway, sometimes when it is really hot and it starts to annoy me to have something on my wrist or I and doing dishes, etc. - I take it off and clip the wristband around my sleeveless shirt OR bra strap or belt loop and it counts steps just fine. So now, I'd better go put some steps on mine!
