Blocks 29-32 of Kitty Sampler. I modified some because I wasn't in the mood for fiddly bits and wanted to use some of my larger prints.

My nephew loves capybaras and has been having a bit of a rough time lately with his health so I made him these capybaras from Choly Knight to cheer him up. They're meant to resemble some of his favorite Pokemon, can you guess who they are? #quiltsky

My kitty sampler blocks 25-28. I think I'm caught up now but I'm going to try to go faster because I found out I may have a houseguest for several weeks in the fall and we love to quilt together, so if I can finish this we can focus on new projects #quiltsky

I had to go to the dentist yesterday so instead of quilting last night I made this on my embroidery machine. Design by Off With Their Threads. I need at least ten more now 😻 this weekend I hope to get our charity quilts bound and finished! They're all tied and ready

I'm unreasonably excited because the spouse and I finished matching quilt tops for the donation drive at my quilt guild. It's his first time sewing so there was a lot of learning, adapting, and seam ripping involved. Hopefully some kiddos like bright neon colors as much as I do 😹

i don’t think i’ve ever missed alt text *because* of this setting.
alt text is easy, fun, polite, necessary, &—critically in the age of “govt openly enthusiastic about eugenics & ending accessibility initiatives”—the right thing to do, especially if you’re on bluesky to inform or drive action.

I really wanted to catch up on my Kitty Sampler quilt blocks today but my body said, "no thanks" 😒 hopefully some rest and binging Kingdoms and Castles today will avoid a full-on flare. At least I have the best snuggle buddies 😻

I have been completely fixated on making these kitchen towels lately. Most will be gifts but I might have to keep a couple 🤔
Most designs from Urban Threads/Embroidery Library but if you want to know a specific one I will try to reply if I tear myself away from the embroidery machine...

I'm teaching the spouse to sew/quilt. We're making quilts for Project Linus for his first project and I'm trying to contain my excitement so he doesn't feel pressured to sew with me but I'm having such a good time 😹

I cut up all the scraps from my FPP project and tried my hand at confetti crumb quilting. I made a pocket between tulle and fusible interfacing with foam underneath, then filled it with the fabric bits and quilted all over it. I used leftover Olyfun and rivets to make a tray to hold clips #quiltsky

I did some quilting which is always nice but also I saw a birb. I was hoping it was an indigo bunting because I've only ever seen one once but a bluebird is not a bad consolation prize. Sorry the pic isn't better, it's just 5X zoom on my phone 😸

My first FPP! Definitely bit off a smidge more than I could chew but I don't think most people will notice the boo-boos so 🤷 pattern is by @skullsandneedlesmerx on Etsy

The little felt skull I machine embroidered is now a patch! I used heat&bond Ultra for the adhesive and a patch of denim on the inside and finished with some sashiko thread for funsies. Sewing inside of denim pockets is no joke!

Quilted some simple diagonal lines on some big pieces for another set of ByAnnie bags yesterday, this time they're Open Wide 2.0. I'm using fabric repurposed from a skirt my sister was wearing when she got proposed to and there wasn't any leftovers so no pressure, right? 😅

This is the ultimate Cat Lady quilt. The finished size is 104x108 inches! There are 900 hexagons that are hand-pieced and machine quilted before sewing the hexagons together. Each hexagon has a unique cat image. I'll attach a close-up.
