It's Quilt Time

A little quilt I made last year for absolutely no reason other than I thought it would be fun! I was inspired by stitch artist and illustrator Tanya Denyer and used her templates for the mushroom shapes.

This is one of three memory quilts I made a few years ago for the wife, mother, and daughter of a lovely man who died of cancer much too young. I mixed in a few of his dress shirts and T-shirts with other fabrics to make this one for his mom. She recently passed away as well which I was very sad to hear.

55"×65", rainbow jelly roll quilt I started last June and completed in the winter, but I've neglected to post. Eventually it made sense to just wait until now to share 🫶 happy pride month!! 🏳️‍🌈

Time to pick a new project.

All my agoraphobic tendencies might be coming out but at least I'm making some cute stuff while we sit at home and wait for the snow to thaw.

Finished the holiday quilt before the holiday! No mean feat this year, there just aren’t enough quilting/painting/reading hours in a day, sadly. I love how this turned out. A friend said “it looks like an old quilt” and that made me happy.

If only because I’ve taken to hand sewing it instead of doom scrolling 😅 but Lu sure is a big fan.

I love the lime green as a nod to the traditional red center but bringing it into the modern day. Less curated, more scrappy!
