Quilter living in Stockholm Sweden.
Doing some #EPP while binge listening to American Government: Constitutional Foundations, by Harvard University. It's available in both print and audio lectures. I'm really enjoying it, it's very thought-provoking. It also allows me to sew at the same time, so it's a win/win.

If you're playing Fascism Bingo:

1. Leader surrounded by sycophants✔️
2. Burn books✔️
3. Target intellectuals and free thought✔️
4. Concentration camps✔️
5. Declare courts void✔️
6. Control the media✔️
7. Leaders reaping financial gain✔️
8. Opponents declared enemies of the state ✔️

Must we just sit here?

If you only watch one video today, let it be this one.

And since Little Marco doesn’t want us to remember this, please repost it so others can see what a raging hypocrite he is.

Blocks pieced and ready for assembly. Last weekend's voting was overwhelmingly positive for the "blue" variation. Originally, I wanted to do both light and dark between the blocks. One or the other was great, but the mix was just jarring.

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

The FBI’s core values, including integrity, compassion, fairness, and allegiance to the Constitution - and oh, yeah, diversity, are being painted over at the FBI Academy. Source: NYT.

I'm looking for a discussion about these two color variations for the paths in between these blocks. Both positive and negative. I like to see things through other eyes. Light, or blue, or some of each? Nothing already sewn needs to stay that way. Have at it while I make dinner. #quiltsky

#onevoice PLEASE RESHARE! We need to get better organized. We need marches, boycotts, and to make headlines. I want to start a hashtag with the purpose of finding our leadership. Bernie. Kamala, Pete? I don't care, this army needs a general.

We need optics, that's why we need a march. On Washington and every last town square in Podunk. Al Sharpton made the news with 100 people. Main stream media wants video. We need to give them a protest to video. When do we march????

We need a leader!! A voice or voices to follow. The other side has the orange 🍊 guy FOTUS carrying their torch. We need someone, one voice, one group to carry our flame thrower. Someone to decide when we march, real dates. My pitchfork is ready! #resist

My quilt about women’s reproductive rights has been banned from all American Quilters Society shows this year. It’s been part of a traveling show with SAQA. My artist statement is too long for here. It’s on my website: laurashaw.net/quilts#/your-mother

I bought a few more fabrics for this one. Going to be a fun weekend. I already see a few "renovations" needed. ##quiltsky

I started cutting this last night after dinner. After doing a lot of EPP this feels like flying! #quiltsky

#quiltsky This is still not finished yet, BUT - a couple weeks ago I saw another quilters solution for finishing the edges. This is now in the queue (again) for completion. Spellbound EPP Pattern by Kustom Kwilts.

This was an early Flying Geese block fail and rework. Don't ask, but yes, there are (were) geese in there. #quiltsky

A wallet I made as a gift. Teeny tiny pieces. I love doing tiny FPP because the results just look so impossible. #quiltsky

#quiltsky. This is still just a flimsy waiting for the right quilting inspo. I should hang it so I don't forget about it.
