It’s quilting season again :) The world is on fire but at least winter is coming. Bad brain fog today, darn it I was on a 3 week roll of functionality. I saw baby chores and miniature horses at the fair this weekend, along with regular size livestock. That was cool. I should update more.
It’s the Chesterville Agricultural Fair this weekend. I’ll have to go check out the quilts and home goods. But there going to be lots of demolition derby, tractor pulls and general tee-hawing in the evening. Readying my headphones.
Continuing to enjoy @libselliott.com #BlockOfTheMonth and happy to have some nice pieces curves in this #quilt 💛🩷🖤🧡

My suggestion for date night was to go pick out Lego sets and then sit together and build them. He said yes 🤩 I’m building a café and he has a John Deere tractor
My 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ pride #quilt top is ready for quilting. I think I’m going to take my time doing this myself. I’m happy with the rainbow colours and 80s vibes
Block 6 of @libselliott.com #SewSquad block off the month was challenging! It’s #FoundationPaperPiecing in 4 parts. But it looks good! There may have been some swearing with this #quiltblock #botm
Still needs to be #quilted but I finished my Hello Curves Again mini sampler. I made it for a teachers course for #SewKindOfWonderful and love the purple ombré I chose 💜 🧵 🪡
As we celebrate Pride let us pause for a moment to remember. This is an image of the AIDS Memorial Quilt on display October 11-13 1996 on the National Mall in Washington D.C. Let us never forget. #HappyPrideMonth
Block 5 of my @libselliott.com #BlockOfTheMonth These were strip pieced and then the corner circles were appliquéd. I am loving these colour combinations.Its going to be a bright #quilt
I just finished my #HappyTogetherQuilt 🌈 I@sewkindofwonderful pattern made #curvedpiecing easy. Fabric outfits are wax prints from @kenaquilts - stunning! Check out the SKW event next week at @madaboutpatchwork 💕 I’m so happy with how this #quilt turned out. Long-arm quilting by Janet St.George
Country living, spring edition… One thing I was not prepared for is how LOUD the birdsbirds sing in the morning. They are having a gooooood time 😂
I’ve finished the last #QuiltBlocks for my #HappyTogether #Quilt from #SewKindOfWonderful 😍 Tomorrow I’ll #sew the blocks together so it’s ready to get quilted. Having a great time sewing #Curves
I’ve made 30 “potato chip” #QuiltBlocks and now it’s time to turn them into a #quilt. I think I will add a black border to make it a bit bigger and give the eyes a place to rest. But I won’t add sashing since I love the TV static look! #UseYourScraps
My #AprilFinish just bound last night. It’s all hand sewn and #quilted. The top is all #EPP from #scraps. I hand quilted with Aurifil 12wt horizontally, about 3” apart so it will be nice and soft. It’s a 36” baby #quilt that will likely be gifted. Squishmallow for scale.
The palpable improvement in my mood and mental function after conservatives lost the election tells me I was impacted by the state of things more than I realized. Remember to take care of yourselves because all this uncertainty and threat can really hurt your physical and mental health 💕
I finished three more #QuiltBlocks today on my Happy Together #quilt 😍 Sewing curves is really fun when you get the hang of it. #SewKindOfWonderful I like that the bottom one looks like she’s wearing a scarf 🧕
That feeling when your co-workers are using AI to make human versions of their pets… Not sure if it’s worth the environmental destruction and impoverishment of actual artists to generate you a reverse #fursona but okaaaaaaaaay *crying and laughing and dying inside
