Making my original contemporary art quilts is my passion and my sanity as I try to piece together imaginary landscapes of time and space. www.etsy.com/shop/annbrauer

I have read Qatar gave Hamas over $1 Billion. This is not right.

Mickey Kuhns @mickeykuhns.bsky.social · 1d

Trump and Hegseth give Qatar an airbase in Idaho and Qatari pilots will be flying jets over American airspace. Their lavish gifts and personal business deals with Trump worth billions really paid off for them.

This SHOULD be a post in The Onion but I don't think it is.

National Security Counselors 🕵 @nationalsecuritylaw.org · 2d

Here's the framing we should put on this.

"Hegseth announces that sharia law will apply to part of Idaho AF base"

Yes Qatar is governed by sharia law. UAE is more complicated but it partially follows sharia.

Hegseth: "I'm also proud that today we're signing a letter of acceptance to build a Qatari Emeri air force facility at the Mountain Home Airbase in Idaho."

Thanks Page.

I think I must read this article when I get a chance. What a scary concept.

Doktor Zoom @doktorzoom.bsky.social · 2d

Excellent thread!

Greg Sargent @gregsargent.bsky.social · 2d

JB Pritzker has also been emphatically placing Trump's mental decline squarely on the agenda. On our pod, he adds a new element: People around Trump are using his decline to manipulate him, so they're less likely to intervene. More Dems should say this. 1/

And I have a bridge to sell you....

I’m sure Trump will post a heartfelt and sincere congratulatory message to Maria Corina Machado for winning the Nobel Peace Prize, as any president with class and dignity would do.

I am almost done piecing the new quilt and really loving the colors. I can't wait to see the finished work. What do you think? #artquilt #piecing #workinprogress #coloraday #yellowthu #quiltstudio

Detail of the new work that I am currently piecing with the yellow sun rising into the sky pieced of shades of blue. Beneath it the landscape is greens and teal.

I am respecting Governor Pritzker more and more.

Michael Derby @michaelsderby.bsky.social · 4d

Pritzker goes there on Trump: “This is a man who’s suffering dementia…It’s just something in the recesses of his brain that is effectuating to have him call out these cities.” Via Chicago Tribune

Gov. JB Pritzker says President Trump deploying troops to Chicago due to ‘dementia’ and obsessive fixations

Democratic governor’s comments came as he continues to oppose President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago area for deportation efforts.

Time to celebrate the season with these quilted rust red place mats that echo the colors of autumn. What do you think? #etsy #soldonetsy #tablemats #quiltstudio #makermade

Quilted and pieced table mats in the soft reds of the season with just a hint of sparkle of green. #fabricart #tableart

I am not sure of the question. The images are just of quilts that I made in the studio. The granddaughter had fun playing with her own design.
