TTMT #718 – I Love You, I Know

In which I share a FINISHED quilt top as well as my brand new Star Wars-inspired design, available on Fandom in Stitches.

I also ask for your help naming my new quilt. I’m looking for a unique name that uses the word “picnic” in the title. Google tells me that this is not a new idea and I would love your help! If I use your idea, I’ll send you a prize (TBD).

TTMT #713 – Treepocalypse

1 Reply

In which I share absolutely nothing crafty but do talk about our last week. We were hit hard during the winter storms here in Austin and the damage is still unbelievable. We feel very fortunate that all of our people and pets are okay. BIG thanks to everyone who checked on us or offered help. ♥

I forgot to mention that I did have to reschedule my most recent surgical follow-up. I hope it’s the last time I have to reschedule an appointment because my car is under a tree!

And seriously, if you are local to Austin, TX, and need tree service, not sponsored in any way, just amazing service during a nightmare situation. Austex Tree Service

TTMT #709 – Serious Conversation

6 Replies

My dear friends, in this video I share an update on my post-op and talk about what you’ve all been asking me: why I can no longer take donations on behalf of The Linus Connection.

If you have mailed a quilt top to me in the last six months or so and you haven’t seen it quilted yet, please let me know if you are okay with my donating to a charity organization at a later date. I won’t be able to quilt for some time yet and I don’t know where my donations will be going at that time.

The orphan blocks you send will still be used to #quiltforgood because that is what I love to do.
