Peace, Love, & HSTs (TTMT #866 Quilting Show and Tell)

2 Replies

Hello, friends. I’m here as usual, bringing you love and warm fuzzies from my sewing room. Be sure to stay until the end for some winter wildlife video.

Over the last week, I did some scrappy HST sewing for myself, did a tiny bit of shopping with a friend, updated my serger station, and then proceeded to be iced in for a couple of days.

Please leave a comment and let me know what HST blocks I should use in my scrappy sampler!

Green 28mm Thread Cutter

The thread cutter my husband made for me came from the Bambu Labs community. He’s working as I type this, and I will add a link later if possible. In the meantime, try searching “45mm thread cutter flower.”

My new serger station is an IKEA Trofast frame with red and white storage boxes.

TTMT #788 – Well, It’s Not Chairs

Leave a reply

This week, I share a minor misadventure in the finishing of my new-to-me dining chairs, a new Sherlock Holmes-themed paper pieced quilt block designed by me for my husband’s bookcase quilt (pattern coming later this month), some tiny sewing machines made by my son, and a tiny bit of progress on my eldest’s Doctor Who quilt repair. Big thanks to my Ko-Fi supporters, with a special shout out to crankyrat for TEN coffees!

TTMT #785 – Birds, Blocks, & Daleks

Leave a reply

This was one of those weird weeks that felt a month long but also felt like I didn’t do anything while simultaneously doing All The Things. I worked on some machine embroidery, hit my favorite thrift store, Austin Creative Reuse, upcycled a tote bag, and brought home an old favorite project for some much-needed TLC. This little bit of chaos is the result. Stick around to the end for some bird feeder footage!
