Albuquerque Haul! (TTMT #886 Quilting & Sewing Vlog)

Leave a reply

Hello, friends!

I spent most of last week visiting my bff, Jewells (@nmjewells on YouTube), in Albuquerque, NM! I joined her for Paper Piecing Club at Hip Stitch, we stitched (both hand & machine), did loads of thrifting, chatted endlessly, and just generally had some BFF soul restoration time!

I links below. If you’re curious about a specific fabric shown here, just let me know and I’ll share if I can.

Hip Stitch
2320 Wisconsin St., NE
Albuquerque, NM 87110

Look for ReCreate IN STORE only at Hip Stitch for amazing deals on previously owned fabrics and craft supplies.

Perennial Pleasure free pattern to paper piece. The fox was designed for the baby quilt. I will not be sharing the pattern. ♥

RAWR! (TTMT #885 Sewing Vlog)

Leave a reply

Happy Tuesday, friends!

This week finds me with a new batch of baby stuff, this time burp clothes, wash cloths, and bibs! I do have some other fun things planned once I’ve worked my way through the more utility based baby stuff!

I’m on my way out of town tomorrow, but will be back home with a new TTMT next week.

I also used a variety of fabrics from my stash, off-cuts of cotton batting, and circle sew on hook and loop dots for the bibs.

HST Sample Top QUILTED! (TTMT #882 Quilting Vlog)

5 Replies

Hello, friends! My HST top is now quilted! I left it on my Gracie King frame (currently set up for Queen size) to show you my quilting setup. I also chat about fabric at my local Michael’s and tease an upcoming project.

I used Pellon 100% cotton batting in my quilt purchased at Michael’s.

The video looks long, but I only talk until 7:34:21. The rest of the video shows one pass of quilting with the Q’Nique. My machine is not computerized and I love Free Motion Quilting (FMQ) so that’s what you get to see! It’s been a while since I quilted and I forgot to use my lint roller first which I am sure you’ll notice by my left hand regularly guest starring to pick lint off the top.

TTMT #813 – New Year, New Projects (Quilty Show & Tell)

Leave a reply

Hello friends! Today, I’m sharing my to-do wish list for 2025. This includes what I’m already working on and what I would like to tackle this year. The #ttmtbom is high on the list, as is my husband’s bookcase quilt (a little bit multi-fandom and a little history quilt!). I’ve got some new projects I’m hoping to work on and design skills I’d like to improve. I hope you come along for the journey!

I really want to work on improving my skills with Embrilliance Embroidery Software. I purchased Essentials when I bought my first embroidery machine and added Stitch Artist 1 a few years later. I am not sponsored; I just really enjoy the software!

Questions? Leave a comment and I’m happy to reply!

What are you working on this year? I would love to hear all about it.

FUNDRAISER for Miss P! There are a couple of baskets left and some new products donated by other quilters!

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!
