This is my own design. I did all the math & figured out how to do my weird ratio of half-rectangle triangles. I made my own foundation paper piecing templates for sections. And I even learned the accursed pen tool in order to make vector templates for the appliqué elements.

more pics of the dinosaur quilt now that its all assembled! Happy with the bright colors and the neon green flannel backing thats super cozy and thick. I'm already picking out colors and plans for the next quilting project. Third picture shows my cat making herself a blanket fort cave and attempting to burrow into it.

Lmk if you have any feedback

I present the batta fish. It is cute and very friendly shaped.

Fascists want you scared and isolated and alone. The way to combat that is to trust other people. And yeah. Trusting other people is vulnerable and can lead to hurt, but sometimes the people you trust blindly based on identity will be the ones who hurt you the most and the ones you dismiss blindly based on identity will be the ones who can keep you the safest.

finally finished my first quilt! entirely handsewn lionfish :^)

A sweet apple needle book I designed for a birthday recipient 🍎 The “pages” are stitched down the center, and I sewed little black buttons between the pages for 1) realism (seeds) 2) creating extra space for needles. The apple stem is old bias tape, and the ties are worms!!! 🪱

And, of course, as soon as it hit the floor Meara had to have a snuggle. After all, quilts are made for puppies!
