I bought what I thought was a skinny quarter roll, but alas it was only 8” instead of 9”. So I changed my entire plan and started playing with HRTs instead. Previously I’ve hated HRTs, but Latifah’s Hurty ruler truly makes it easy. #quiltsky

This is Artemisia, a sixteen year old Devon Rex who has been infill renal failure for six years now. She lives thanks to a combination of special food, subcutaneous fluid infusions, and hatred of the two tabbies who dare to share her space.

I think this was my favourite make in 2024. I was supposed to he cutting 45 degree angles and instead I cut 60s, so I had to improv the whole thing. I call it “60 in a 40 zone”. Just need to work how to quilt it…

My 2024, according to TopNine, was mostly about one quilt! What I actually did was six new flimsies and seven completed quilts.

I promised myself I was going to start a quilt today, but I got distracted by needing new floor pillows.

I have to put up something for a first post, so why not? This quilt, finished just a few weeks ago, is one of my proudest achievements. It’s called “Wrath”. It’s based on my very favorite poem, Homer’s Iliad.
