I learned a new skill this week, knitting colorwork.. I am pretty excited about it 😁

With the weather getting colder I’ve felt a pull back toward yarn.. first time I’ve knitted in several years and I learned how to use double pointed needles for the first time.. I made a sock! Fits on a foot and everything! Yarn was designed to resemble dragon fruit which is an added bonus #knitting

Finally got some stickers added to the Janome, because imo every sewing machine needs a little RBG

Good god 100% polyester batting is unruly.. this is my first time using my new (to me) Janome 8200qc for quilting.. about gave myself an aneurysm trying to make the walking foot fit but we got there in the end 😂 .. wish me luck!

I’m sort of in the middle of two projects, a quilt for my husband awaiting the actual quilting/binding and a quilt for my best friend that only has the top assembled.. so tonight I was of course obligated to make a procrasti-block from scraps.. I screwed up one HST but otherwise turned out cute!

If anyone’s looking for a fast way to make an overly stiff quilt softer, my recommendation is to turn it over to your two heathen dogs for a couple days.. works like a charm 👌

My chandelier quilt made with prints from Tula Pink’s besties line.. so much fun to make, but definitely the last time I quilt THAT close together 😂

Waterfall II quilt.. I finally have this all sandwiched together but I’m kind of stuck on how to quilt it without affecting the 3D illusion (zigzaggy edges have been trimmed since this pic was taken)

This is the first quilt I made using bamboo batting, the drape is SO nice and it wasn’t difficult to quilt (the way polyester can be for me).. it has now been gifted to my cousin, April, awaiting her soon to be baby girl!
