My Fiber Artisans group challenge is Bright Side Dark Side this year. I have always been captivated by the night sky. There are 4 hidden constellations (one towards each corner) and tons of hand stitched stars.

Made this Sandhill sling bag from a pattern by Noodlehead. Added an extra pocket on the inside (keys/wallet/phone). Instructions were easy to follow ❤️ I will definitely make another with a wild print! #quiltsky #Noodlehead

Best art/craft thrift store find ever! And yes I know it wasn't made for scissors BUT it's perfect for my Guggenheins which are hella heavy and super sharp. I made the weighted pin cushion with chopped walnuts and a couple heavy coasters. The best part is the label from my daughter! #quiltsky

Had a fun time at the Great Wisconsin Quilt Show today. Got to see my "Save the Bees" quilt on display. I am always blown away by such beautiful works of art!

Took an old pair of straight leg jeans and turned them into bell bottoms. With a quilty twist and 60's vibe.

My Great Grandmother moved from Germany to the U.S. with her parents when she was 10 years old.
This is a double pillow case that she made for her wedding night. It must have been used for a long time ❤️ I added the doily which I believe she created. Thanks to my cousin for passing these on..

Finished my new purse from hubby's and my vintage jeans plus ice dyed fabric that my daughter @funkyremnants.bsky.social created. I love the labels that she made for me too!

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat.

Finished! My piece for the Great Wisconsin Quilt Show hexagon challenge. The bees bodies are needle felted wool and the wings are Algelina fibers fused together. PS I hate hexagons,always have and still do 😆🤣

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

My fav Levi's. BUT the pockets are ridiculous. About 2-3 inches deep. Good for nothing. I hate putting my phone in the back pocket so I added one for it on the front and sewed the useless ones shut with embroidery thread. She's got a lot of hand mending on her ❤️

A page from last year's stitch book. Tonight was Lester Holt's last broadcast on NBC's Nightly News. Every show I watched, I watched to the very end so I could hear him say these words.

Watched the Netflix documentary "The Quilters". Definitely worth the 32 minutes. Even if you're not a quilter.
