Often a quilter, textile artisan, reader, sometimes gardener, cook, maker of things who is always grateful for my family, friends, and life in general.

On the better side of life, I quilted up a quilt my daughter made as a gift. She created and assembled the top and I finished it up for her with the #quilting #quiltsky

This is where most of the stitching and creating happens.... except handstitching... that is a comfy spot with TV and wine.

In a future where books are outlawed- Mechanical Hound serves the firemen as a terrifyingly efficient hunter programmed to track and neutralize those who dare to preserve knowledge. Its presence is a constant reminder of the state’s oppressive power and its perversion of nature for social control.

Another group quilt project done (mostly). We have been sewing and crafting together for 30 hrs. In May, one friend unexpectedly died... we all were heartbroken.
Today we used her remaining fabric destined for a grandson to make his quilt.

DONE! I'm not usually so quick but this is a gift for my Aunt & Uncle. I want to give it at our Canadian Thanksgiving dinner. I bought the panels in Liberia CR, and lucky, I bought all they had left. My cutting mistake led to a different plan but I do love it.

Intended to make a OBW with (6) 60° triangles with these panels I bought in Costa Rica.... I used the wrong ruler and (luckily) had enough panels to cut 2 more triangles and setting triangles to make kaleidoscope blocks.
Ready for quilting now!

Birthday love for a friend - this was made with a friend as a group gift for a special woman! I am passing it off for binding abd label stitch down.

This backing is delicious

Back to slow stitching, a movie, sangria, chocolate, after a summer of the busy summertime stuff and the craziness of the outside world; I am ready for a quiet little spot of peace.
KING with poor quilt decisions (Baptist fans in a busy wide border- IYKYK) but I persist

Memory quilt is done. About 70 hours of care.
A bit of hand stitching to finish it.
Some special embroideries added to tell his story. The rose was his sketch.

Quilting this one till it's done...
A memory quilt for a friend whose son left us far too young.

(Yes this is an older stand up and quilt machine, go slow, no computer assistance)

Good morning

No reasons not to enjoy morning coffee on the back deck today.

Yes to appreciating the blessing of a quiet life

I know how valuable this is

Coffee break...when you need a break from the insanity of what is happening...
Rest for a few moments
Calm your soul
Breathe

It will all still be happening when you log back in.

Don't forget to enjoy doing the fun little things also while you are raging against the idiocy.

The smiles and hugs from your grandchild are the "WHY".

A bit more hand stitching, a bit of Sangria and a bit of Coronation Street on TV.

Resetting my mind to a bit of calm as a break from all the political insanity of the tyranny.

(and lots more quilting is needed to finish this Kingsize quilt)
