TTMT #754 – Quilting Again!

TTMT #754 – Quilting Again!

This week finds me quilting again…AT LAST! I have one small charity quilt finished, and two more quilted. All three will go to Project Linus in Albuquerque via my bff Jewells! The floors are done and the downstairs is almost fully functional again. YAY!

TTMT #753 – This Quilt Top Bites!

Y’all, I finished my quilt top! I’m so pleased with the scrappy lavender and cannot wait to get it quilted! All patterns can be found on fandominstitches.com. I also ramble entirely too much about house stuff, but quilt machine reassembly is imminent and I am EXCITED.

The fabric I show was purchased at Hip Stitch. Their clearance sale ends November 22. Not sponsored, just a VERY supportive best friend. 😉

TTMT #752 – A Gift & Other Things

Today I share a little bit of progress on my What We Do in the Shadows quilt (all patterns on fandominstitches.com) and a stand mixer cover I made for my eldest kiddo (pattern from sewcanshe.com).

Our downstair flooring update is in progress. I’ll try to remember to share a before and after next week. I’m already in love! Our old floor was painted concrete. Anywhere we had a rug was especially beaten up!

I forgot to share in my video that I did manage to pull together a Halloween costume last week! My younger kid and I went to Savers and I dug through the formal dresses until I found a red dress that was a little too big. I added some accessories from Savers and a black jacket out of my own closet. All I was missing was vampire fangs! Oh, and I am absolutely wearing my red sneakers under that dress. 😉

TTMT #747 -This One’s For Abbie

In which I share all three of Abbie’s finished Raggedies! It was such a joy working on them. Abbie made it easy by having so much done already. The two small ones were more of a UFO project than a rescue, but still very fun! The lanky girl was my favorite to work on, a true restoration, and extra special to know I was working on Abbie’s own doll!

TTMT #745 – BFF Retreat 2023, #thriftcrawl Haul

In which I share the amazing #thriftcrawl haul from almost a week with the world’s best BFF, Jewells68!

Y’all, it was so great to have her here, and I’m sure you can tell how happy it makes me. I was so excited, I even forgot to mention how completely awesome the new downstairs ceiling looks!

We hit Savers, Goodwill (two regular stores & the Outlet), Habitat Restore, Texas Thrift, Austin Creative Reuse, and the Austin Antique Mall. We also had a great time at Ikea!

As always, I miss her already. ♥
