My Scrap Satisfaction 2024 quilt is now finished. Using two inch scrappy squares this ended up a great crib size quilt. It'll be displayed on a quilt ladder in our home.

3/6/26: “'America is not like a blanket—one piece of unbroken cloth, the same color, the same texture, the same size,” he said. “America is more like a quilt: many patches, many pieces, many colors, many sizes, all woven and held together by a common thread.'" Rev. Jesse Jackson HCR

Hubby is away visiting his family for five days, so I'm having a quilty immersion week and catching up on tons of tasks that needed doing in my sewing studio. Today I basted, quilted, bound then washed and dried my Eye Spy Adventures quilt!

With lots of sanding and some dark wax we fixed the frames we didn't like on these thrift ( op shop ) vintage art finds! Our distressed timber vibe is way better than the frame painted weird colours vibes they originally had!

OMG amazing thrift ( op shop ) bargain today! Lefton Bluebirds 🩵💙

Basted and quilted a scrappy rectangle today to make a patchwork dog bed, it features 330 scrappy 2.5" squares & I used a scrap of batting. Simple quick meandering lines quilting. I added a simple backing with a zipper slot so I could insert a couple of cheap store bought pillows.

I've been working on a new book draft for about a year. Hexagon Quilt Adventures will feature 50 EPP quilt designs. I have the first book proof and have begun editing!

Marianne Jeffrey @adventurousquilter.bsky.social · 22/05/2025

I've begun a new EPP project! My Scrap Satisfaction mystery design is available free in four quarterly e-zine issues that I release throughout 2025. This year the design is an EPP project. There are 2 sizes of hexagon template to choose from. I'll be using the tiny hexagons.

Postage Stamp Tumbler Quilt Top I'll get a better photo some time but couldn't resist getting hubby to hold it up after I'd stitched on the final row this evening! 3500 tiny scrappy tumblers! Ready for basting, quilting and binding!

I made another 100 patch scrappy block yesterday. That's 7 blocks so far & there's heaps of fabric squares left. I didn't really expect those couple of piles of 'busy print' mini charm leftovers to make so many blocks! It's great to de-stash scrappy clutter once in a while with an easy scrap quilt!

I started the weekend with five ready to bind quilts on my to-do list! It was a relief to finish the final one 🤣 then I made a large roll of scrappy bindings to replenish my binding hoard.

48 more scrappy improv quilt blocks got added to my piles today. I've made over 1500 of these the last few years they are a great way to use up scraps!

Marianne Jeffrey @adventurousquilter.bsky.social · 25/04/2025

It's taken over a year to hand stitch these 25 postage stamp tumbler quilt blocks, now I can move on to quilt assembly! So exciting!

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.
