I was working on this piece that has been hibernating. A friend observed that it looked like the flag of Ukraine. I added the field of wheat and sunflowers. Thinking of all the Ukrainians both in the country and the diaspora.

A quilted wall hanging that distracted me from the dire news in the US. Spring is coming. Justice will prevail.

I’m working on quilting a whole batch of floral wall hangings that I pieced last year. They’ve been languishing.

The outrageous lies and capitulation to try and sell Ukraine down the river is infuriating.

I found the stripes already assembled in my scraps. Now I have to figure out how to widen it. A decision for another day. Also, national archivist was illegally sacked and funding for health research has cut. Bannon refers to ‘muzzle velocity’ - this firehouse of Felon47&Musk’s stupid actions.

No scrap left behind. This is made with ‘orphan blocks’- left over from other projects. A solid color border may calm this down.
I accumulate all my scraps in old pillowcases and label it TEXTILE SCRAPS and bring it to Goodwill where I hope it gets recycled.
Still seething about current events.

This scrap quilt is taking way longer than I imagined and my machine is breaking thread and skipping stitches. Working with only a vague plan.

I’m working on an ‘after quilt’. Soooo many scraps from the last one! I like where this is heading. While I work I’m listening to books by William Kent Krueger. It’s a distracting series about a former sheriff in Tamarack County, Minnesota. I am thankful. I pray for our country.

Velázquez: Donald Trump did not care a bit about safer communities when he released those who were convicted of beating the shit out of police officers. So, don’t come to us and talk about security and safer communities when you do that

This is a painting by Alma Thomas, an African-American woman artist and educator. One of her pieces was the first by a woman of color to be added to the collection at the White House
