Finished this little mini-quilt the other day. Some room for improvement, but I really like how it turned out. It’s 16”x18”.

Grey square quilt with vertical pink stripes, diagonal yellow stripes and three overlapping hand quilted circles with orange thread.

I don’t know that I’ve ever trimmed half rectangle triangles before. I’ve done pretty much everything else, but I’ve just never used them before. 🤷‍♀️ Seems good so far. We’ll see how the sewing goes.

Spending the evening trimming half square triangles for a quilt and listening to an audiobook. Repetitive but peaceful.

We relocated to Scotland (planned and moved in about five months 😳) and now I’m back to crafting. Here’s a layout I made with some blocks in class today.

Four quilt blocks made with red and white fabrics.

Finished a quilt and also the warp that was on my loom. All washed but still needs a good steam & press. That’s all for the weaving until after we move, but I still have some sewing to do.

White fabric with grey, black, and red stripes. Very wrinkly.

Went to our local creative reuse store and came home with these. I’ve been wanting to try these for awhile, so I was excited to find them. And for $8 total! #weaving

On a self imposed sewing/weaving retreat this week (at home). I have a quilt to finish, blocks to make for another quilt, blocks to start for a third quilt, and a warp to finish on my loom. Here’s a block I did yesterday for @libselliott.com 2025 Block of the Month in the Sew Squad. #quiltsky

Quilt block made up of elongated triangles. The left side is teal and pink. The right side is blue and orange.

Starting to learn my new inkle loom. I have until the end of June to be ok enough to use it in public. 😬 I still have a quilt to finish and spinning to practice. And a warp on my loom that needs finishing. It’ll be fine. It’ll all be fine.

Here’s a photo of some fun fabric I’m currently working with, just so there’s a crafty photo too. 😬

Working with bright, happy fabrics today.

Oof, what a week. But here is a block for @libselliott.com’s Sew Squad Block of the Month. It’s bright and cheerful and makes me smile when I look at it. #quiltsky

Working out an improv curve design with some scrap fabric. The fabrics definitely don’t look good together, but the moneys make me laugh. 🐵

Four curvy pieces of fabric laying nicely on a cutting mat, with more fabric tossed to the side. One of the fabric is purple with cartoon monkeys.

Evening quilt drafting. Also, watching High Potential, because it’s pretty good.

It’s basted! The king size quilt is basted! It took 2.5 hours (including moving some furniture), but it’s done!

Work on the quilt backing continues. It’s about 10 ft long! I love the bright colors - they’re a nice “happy” for today.

Working on the backing (finally) for the Suzy Quilts Planetarium quilt top I made last year. It’s king size and I’ve been putting it off. I think it’ll be a mix of machine quilting (on my domestic, not a longarm 😳) and hand quilting.

Working on the concept of a quilt today that includes lots of strips. And ironing. I’m putting the new project iron through its paces. 😂

Weaving on the floor loom today. I’m trying to finish the warp this week! After that I have the next Jane Stafford project waiting - but I may switch up the colors. I’d really like to start working with bright, happy colors. I think we could all use the boost, yes? Also, starting a new quilt soon!

For someone that doesn’t wear a lot of nail polish…I have a lot of nail polish. I like the pretty colors and swatching. 😬😆

Finished happy pink handwoven towels with hand sewn hems! Happy to have these done and off the loom. I have a warp on my floor loom to finish (one of the Jand Stafford projects). This afternoon I’m moving to quilting - I have an idea but I need to work out the “how to”.

The plan was to have these towels done two days ago, but that didn’t happen. Finishing them up today though - only one more hem to go! Also, the llama needle minder is one of my favorites. ❤️ If you stitch, do you have a needle minder that you find exceptionally cute or fun?

Rotary cutting my handwoven fabric is so much more scary than cutting quilting cotton for quilts! Hand sewing the hems tomorrow, I think.

Weaving some towels on my rigid heddle loom before a couple of quilty meetings this evening. I like the floor loom better, but I had these on this loom before I bought my floor loom. Hopefully they’re done this week. 🤞

Spending time at my loom this morning. I’m working through the Jane Stafford online weaving lessons. I’m looking forward to working more complicated patterns. 😆

Made a little improv block from some scrap fabric at Open Works’ Quilt Night this week. Eventually it will end up in a community quilt!

Cleaned up my workspace and I’m now working on a quilt…that I can’t show (because Christmas).
