If there is an equivalent to doodling in fiber arts then this is it. Made with scraps and beaded with beads from my wedding dress for good luck. This was my first time beading. Kind of fun, kind of hard. I bought the frame at goodwill. #craftsky #crossstitch #antifascist #freedom #fcknzs

I made this for the baby’s room. I bought the pattern from HappySlothPatterns on Etsy. I changed the colors and used silver metallic thread for the horn. #crossstitch #stitchsky #unicorn

I love unicorns and I can’t wait to visit Scotland later this year. I stitched this while peacefully daydreaming about Edinburgh. The pattern can be found on Etsy from MaxStitchesArt. #crossstich #craftskye #unicorn

She hasn’t seen it yet but I made my childhood bestie a quilt that honors our 40+ year friendship. Each cassette has a song that holds memories for us. The colors are to honor our childhood love of swatches and Benetton. I hand embroidered her name on the back. Machine pieced and quilted. #quiltsky

I found this kit at Goodwill. It didn’t have an Ahsoka pattern so I made one. That was a first for me. I’ve never made my own pattern before. #crossstitch #starwars

Ghost Party quilt I made for my daughter and a mini version I made for my granddaughter. I found the pattern on Etsy. It was really easy and very beginner friendly. Machine quilted. #quilting #ghostparty #quiltsky

Some embroidery I did for my diary/life quilt. I make and add a special block for whatever I’d like to remember. On the back of the block I record the date and the event. #quilt #embroidery #uno

When I found out I was going to be grandma I went all out teaching myself how to sew and quilt. I found this blog that had instructions on how to make these soft rattles. makeit-loveit.com/sew-plush-ra... I put crinkle paper in the ears. #sewing #crafting #grandmalife

This is a quilt I made this past summer. It was the first time I ever did curved pieces and there are a lot of flaws in the quilt. That said I’m pretty happy with it. The pattern is available via The Modern Quilt Guild’s resource page if you’re a member. #quilting

A smaller project in between larger ones. The pattern, “One More Chapter”, came from a shop on Etsy called MaxStitchesArt. I didn’t have a single color the pattern called for except black and white so I just winged it. #crossstitch #reading

A quick cross stitch project between larger projects. I bought the pattern on Etsy from a shop called Thimbleey.
Super easy and fun. I’m hanging it in the grandkids/guest room.
