Another DEI quilt ready to go together. I participated in a mashup marathon quilting day with Bravepatch school on Friday to We had 12 prompts and a half hour to sew each one. It’s a lot of fun and really exhausting. And it’s a great way to use up scraps… and alas, make more scraps.

Matchy Matchy My Ass… approx 4’x6’. I’ve been sewing all day to finish this quilt top. It’s made from upcycled upholstery samples from my favorite local furniture store, now closed down. Fight the beige, and fight the fascists. Americans are diverse and beautiful and we will prevail! #quiltsky

Summer Solstice, Mt Redoubt volcano in the background, the waves of Cook Inlet and a Rizzodog discovering the joy of splashing in the water after a stick for the first time. This is a good day in Alaska.

Where Are We?
My latest quilt top just finished. 4’x4’ approx, based on traditional snowball block. This quilt tells the story of wayfinding in a blizzard, literally, and figuratively wayfinding as we fight to save our democracy. The American people will prevail. Resist. Impeach. Remove. #quiltsky
