A sneak peek at what is currently on the design wall. There is still a lot of appliqué to do and only about halfway through the blocks but it’s starting to look like something. Pattern is Vesta by Julia Wachs.

5 rows of quilt blocks with each row being the same block design. The overall look is art deco. The blocks are in solid colors which are purple, fuschia, pink, turquoise, lime green and black.

Life has been doing its thing and sewing time has been nonexistent. Finally back to my regularly scheduled weirdness and got some slow stitching in. Decided to play around with eyes, this is the first in a planned series.
#quiltsky #quilt #quilts #quilter #sewing #slowstitching
A small slow stitched block. The background consists of two fabrics, both in shades of pink. One fabric is pink with large red polka dots and the other fabric is a geometric design in shades of pink. In the center of the block is a yellow felt heart with an embroidered eye in the middle. The iris is blue. The rest of the heart is decorated with randomly placed yellow seed beads and pink sequins. The heart is outlined with dark pink colonial knots and then outlined again with metallic blue seed beads. The edges of the block are finished with a yellow blanket stitch.

Release the Kraken! 60 x 80 inches. Completed June 2024. It is from LegitKits. I listened to Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt while piecing this one. It was a perfect match up and a book I highly recommend. 🙂

A quilt with varying shades of blue as the background to depict water. The main image is that of a kraken done in purples and pinks.

I declare it Silly Goose Saturday! Another challenge quilt. This time the theme was flying geese. They meant the flying geese quilt block. However, as the guild’s resident smart ass, I presented Gus the Flying Goose and his sidekick Marvin Mouse.

A quilt with a light blue background and a goose appliquéd in the center. The goose is wearing a leather flight helmet, goggles and a scarf. The goose is sitting in a wash tub with propellers and is accompanied by a scared looking mouse. The border is a darker blue and consists of flying geese quilt blocks.

Another wall hanging. Completed April 2024. Foundation paper pieced. Pattern by Libs Elliot. This was for a quilt group challenge that required a touch of gold. Gold fangs seemed just the ticket. 😜

A wall hanging from last year. A little ‘pup art’ if you will. 😜 The half ear is intentional and based on the model. Pic of said model included. ♥️

Got to spend the day with my stitching bestie yesterday. Lots of laughter and a bit of slow stitching. She’s working on a journal cover and I made a tag.

It’s too cold for me in the quilting studio. That makes for a good opportunity to play with slow stitching. I am having a blast with these silly little owls. Owl patterns are from Tori Chatfield, aka Kooky Kool Kreatures.

Cutting fabric for a new project. I haven’t done a quilt in all solids so this will be interesting. 😁

Pattern by Victoria Findlay Wolfe. Completed in 2018 and still one of my favorites. Although most of them are on my favorites list. 😋

Snails at Sea. One of my first forays into foundation paper piecing. Completed in 2018. I love the scrappy batiks in this one.

English paper pieced wall hanging. I love the meditative nature of English paper piecing. It helps me find some calm amidst the chaos.

One of my favorites! Sunshine Daydream by Tula Pink. So much fun to make with all those luscious colors.

Block assembly for current wip. This one is a few seams from completion. Presented as a mystery quilt by my quilt group so fabrics were selected before pattern was known. Always interesting to see the end result on the mystery quilts.

Scrappy bear paw. Top was made in 2017 and then promptly buried under other projects. I finally got around to quilting it in 2022. Quilts really can take a long time to make! 😂

It’s rainy and cold here today. So a bright quilt is required. I made this one about a year ago.

Scrappy Christmas quilts fresh out of dryer for that cozy, crinkly, snuggly feel. 😀
