TTMT 812 – 2024 Recap (Quilty, Crafty, and DIY Show & Tell!)

Happy end of year, my friends! As time slips into the future, I thought it would be fun to share a recap of what I worked on in 2024. I sometimes forget what I’ve done in a year. This is a good reminder to myself that I LOVE making things.

See you tomorrow for the January TTMT BOM! Happy New Year!

TTMT 806 – Heirloom Applique (quilty show & tell)

Today I share a surprise finished quilt. It was even a surprise to me! My energy and inspiration have been loooow, but I always feel better when I am working on something, so here we are!

There are no patterns for Heirloom Applique. The original blocks were made by my great-aunt, passed to my grandmother, and then to my aunt, who gave them to me. I replicated several of the designs using my embroidery software to make machine applique, adding the cats from a drawing by my eldest kiddo. The final design was me trying to make it all work together. I hope you enjoy it!

Interested in my process? I have a playlist of all the videos that includes blocks to quilt!

I forgot to mention my newly re-released free pattern, Turkey Talk!
