A Joshua tree quilt from #quiltingthenationalparks which was published out this week! I made this as a test two years ago and had been dreaming of this photo since then. Huge thanks to Mark for holding it up patiently on an impossibly windy evening at our campsite a few weeks ago.

The last tiny Ohio star grid - I started assembling the entire top yesterday but had to lay them out one last time all together ✨

A courthouse steps bee block (and a sneak peak at the top) for my quilt bee quilt from last year! Finally getting around to making the last few blocks so I can finish this one ✨

Some Ohio stars for my son’s big kid bed (he got the bed a year ago but slept under a rotating hodgepodge of random house quilts. Currently he sleeps in his camping gear on the floor (his choice - as long as he’s sleeping we aren’t fighting it) so there is clearly no rush on this one. #quiltsky

Some sewing actually happened 🎉 some candy colored February bee blocks, just under the wire.

Work has been crazy so, not a lot of time for sewing lately, but here is some recent scrap bin lone star patchwork ✨

Had the energy for some after work/bedtime/kitchen cleaning patchwork, which hasn’t happened a lot this month! I am embarrassingly imprecise when I sew these scrappy lone stars (no pins, only ripping out the most egregious mistakes) they feel so freeing and happy to make ✨

And she’s done!

Making a pineapple block for the first time since my scrap bin is overflowing and I am between projects. No plans for this one but, it is nicely satisfying and part of my new years goals were to try sewing blocks I’ve never made before ✨

Charlie, listening to the rain on the roof of our car: “it sounds like instruments.” (And earlier: “rain is a bad guy to fire, but a good guy to us” 🥹🥹🥹)

My contribution to a local community quilt for LA wildfire mutual aid, plus my more rambly thoughts that wouldn’t fit in the character limit here ❤️

This was as far as I managed to get today (still undecided on the yellow and also the darkest blue - I feel like maybe those belong in a different block but also maybe I’m just overthinking things)

Six tiny stars down (or five - I’m not totally sure about that yellow one) and some squid games (finally!) for company 🎉

Tonight’s after work/bedtime sewing: a block for a community quilt to benefit LA wildfire relief. The organizer posted a color scheme but left the design up to us, so I am making tiny stars ✨

All the blocks of the month together! Part of me really wants to see these all together in some way so I can be down now, another wants to find another block of the month (possibly next year?) and just keep going and make a giant sampler quilt.

my work computer is taking foreverrr to render some stuff so I am making tiny quarter moons while I wait

The twelfth and final #learningcurvesbom block and a grid of an entire year and change’s worth of blocks! Now what to do with them?
