Table runner from Block Party Quilt Co kit for white elephant exchange. Imperfect, first go at free motion quilting. Big puckers on the back and no time to pick out and redo. Skills gained, lessons learned. #quiltsky #beginnersewist #sewingsky

It's a small project but I think I like useful, quick things the best. I missed on the applique a lot and have to address that, but I think it is cuter than what you can buy in stores. I may quilt the sleeves, too, not sure. #quiltsky #sewsky #beginnersewist #uglysweater #christmassweater

My next project is a quilt for my niece, she picked red and white for her quilt colors. I want a variety of red material as background and white as the secondary color. Can you inspire me with your pics? I need something simple as I am still new to this. #quiltsky #beginnerquilter #beginnersewist

My recent eBay score, Ms. Bennett and Mr. Darcy. I think someone made these? Fantastic work! The clothes have so many details. I don't think Mr Darcy is a Ken but boy he works! #dollsky #prideandprejudice

I am learning a lot. I didn't realize that the pattern was for a California King until I ran out of material. 😂 Thankfully, I don't want it that big. Just one more row will do, and there is enough for that. Then borders. Man am I learning a lot with this. #quiltsky #beginnersewist #sewing

Only 35 more to go! I have struggled so much to get going on this. Cut myself with the rotary cutter, didn't have enough fabric, lost the pattern multiple times so that I had to request it from the seller...but not I can see it. I believe it is going to be beautiful. #quiltsky #beginnerquilter

Amazing that this will be a quilt. It took forever for me to be brave enough to cut. And I quickly found I am short on the colored material. 😭 But the pattern is such that I can use any coordinating colors. Not pictured...blood, sweat and a few swear words. #quiltsky #beginnerquilter

If I am using precuts and cutting from yardage.... should I not prewash the fabric? I read it's not a good idea to wash precuts. I have such paralysis in starting this quilt. #beginnerquilter #quiltsky

Jerrica checks out the in progress renovation of the Barbie Dream Cottage for use as a Jem and the Holograms crash pad. However, the 1 inch height difference with Barbie and the band's tendency to wear heels means that they would be mostly confined to the roof, which is currently used by Darci.

I made this mug caddy for a soon to be teaching grad, following a (pretty terrible) you tube tutorial. For such a simple thing, it took me a while. Second one turned out ok. I have a lot to practice with binding. #sewsky #sewing #teachergifts

Darci hanging out on the roof of the newly remodeled/thrifted Dream Cottage. I love the orange and red A Frame, too. Perfect back drop for this vintage collection. I recovered the cushions to better fit the time period. #darcidollkenner #dollsky #barbiedreamcottage

I followed a tutorial from Chelsea at She Sews Seams to make this duffel. She sews together Dollar Tree dish Matt's. I figured out how to use this pre quilted material that was gifted to me on my local Buy Nothing group. Learning to sew is like growing your own super power. Cost...well under $5.

This weekend I thrifted a Dream Cottage in rough shape with missing pieces, but I am thrilled. I know the appearance will be much improved simply by repainting the white, white. Post covers are so brittle one already broke during transport. 😓#thriftsky #barbie #dollsky #thrifting #thrift

From my daily list of things that brought joy...tulips opened. Dinner with my sons. New recipe was good. Finished piecing a quilt top.
Time spent with loved ones. Beauty that brought good feelings. Accomplishments, even if small.
Remind yourself of what makes you feel good. It brings perspective.

I think quilting has too many tedious tasks that do not play well with my ADHD, but I am pleased with my skill progress. Points are matching better and I feel confident enough to start my son's quilt, which is the goal. #quiltsky #sewing #beginnersewist #tablerunner #beginnerquilter #sewsky

I saw this on the news this morning and gasped our loud. Even if he believed the lay off was justified, the lack of empathy in his response is appalling. These people do not view you as human.

MACK: I was laid off from HHS and now people aren’t getting social services, especially people with disabilities
BANKS: You probably deserved it
MACK: Why did I deserve it?
