I’m working on a quilt top and I’m already wishing I still had access to the longarm at Open Works to finish it. 🤦🏻♀️😆 Sadly, no room to put a longarm here - domestic it is!

I loved living in Charlotte and watching ICE invade is breaking my heart.

I don’t know that I’ve ever trimmed half rectangle triangles before. I’ve done pretty much everything else, but I’ve just never used them before. 🤷♀️ Seems good so far. We’ll see how the sewing goes.

Spending the evening trimming half square triangles for a quilt and listening to an audiobook. Repetitive but peaceful.

We relocated to Scotland (planned and moved in about five months 😳) and now I’m back to crafting. Here’s a layout I made with some blocks in class today.

Finished a quilt and also the warp that was on my loom. All washed but still needs a good steam & press. That’s all for the weaving until after we move, but I still have some sewing to do.

Went to our local creative reuse store and came home with these. I’ve been wanting to try these for awhile, so I was excited to find them. And for $8 total!

On a self imposed sewing/weaving retreat this week (at home). I have a quilt to finish, blocks to make for another quilt, blocks to start for a third quilt, and a warp to finish on my loom. Here’s a block I did yesterday for @libselliott.com 2025 Block of the Month in the Sew Squad. #quiltsky

Starting to learn my new inkle loom. I have until the end of June to be ok enough to use it in public. 😬 I still have a quilt to finish and spinning to practice. And a warp on my loom that needs finishing. It’ll be fine. It’ll all be fine.

I am stressed but having a very good day all at the same time. Everything is just A LOT. But my face was in QuiltCon magazine (in a photo of a Zoom call 😂) and I’m going to MAFA in June to take a weaving class I’m super excited about.

Working with bright, happy fabrics today.

Oof, what a week. But here is a block for @libselliott.com’s Sew Squad Block of the Month. It’s bright and cheerful and makes me smile when I look at it.

Working out an improv curve design with some scrap fabric. The fabrics definitely don’t look good together, but the moneys make me laugh. 🐵

Evening quilt drafting. Also, watching High Potential, because it’s pretty good.

Anyone else place one last order from a Canadian company before the tariffs go into effect? Just me? I’m sad that it’s going to be harder to support my favorite small businesses across the border. 😒

It’s basted! The king size quilt is basted! It took 2.5 hours (including moving some furniture), but it’s done!

Work on the quilt backing continues. It’s about 10 ft long! I love the bright colors - they’re a nice “happy” for today.

Working on the backing (finally) for the Suzy Quilts Planetarium quilt top I made last year. It’s king size and I’ve been putting it off. I think it’ll be a mix of machine quilting (on my domestic, not a longarm 😳) and hand quilting.

just stumbled on a real jaw-dropper of a line in an essay -- “The corollary of being interested in a great range of things is to have sympathy with a great range of outlooks” -- and that, my friends, is why reading is so important.

Working on the concept of a quilt today that includes lots of strips. And ironing. I’m putting the new project iron through its paces. 😂

Weaving on the floor loom today. I’m trying to finish the warp this week! After that I have the next Jane Stafford project waiting - but I may switch up the colors. I’d really like to start working with bright, happy colors. I think we could all use the boost, yes? Also, starting a new quilt soon!

For someone that doesn’t wear a lot of nail polish…I have a lot of nail polish. I like the pretty colors and swatching. 😬😆

Finished happy pink handwoven towels with hand sewn hems! Happy to have these done and off the loom. I have a warp on my floor loom to finish (one of the Jand Stafford projects). This afternoon I’m moving to quilting - I have an idea but I need to work out the “how to”.

The plan was to have these towels done two days ago, but that didn’t happen. Finishing them up today though - only one more hem to go! Also, the llama needle minder is one of my favorites. ❤️ If you stitch, do you have a needle minder that you find exceptionally cute or fun?
