In between a lot of really un-fun adulting, I’ve been trying to squeeze in some happy projects. First up is a Halloween Quilt finish that I’ve now passed on to my quilt-loving eldest kiddo. I also completed a really fun gift for a good friend’s birthday.
(The sound in this video is a bit weird and I apologize for that. I was trying a new microphone setup and though my couple of tests sounded fine, this did NOT. I’d already given the quilt away when I realized and as I’m no voice-over expert, I decided to do my best to edit the audio and will go back to my regular set up next week.)

In case you missed it, I shared a new freebie last week:
I had a very busy week with some fun thrift store finds, including two quilt tops that I share with you today. I also made a little progress on the bookcase quilt I’m working on for my husband as well as my #ttmtbom!
Austin Creative Reuse is THE BEST thrift store. If you’re ever in the area, you have to check it out!

Woo! I completed the repairs on my eldest’s Doctor Who quilt, which is now back in their hands! This was a bigger job than I first anticipated. It’s been a journey and I am ready for what’s next!

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. 😉
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. 😉
