KCWC cheat…
This spring’s KCWC doesn’t start till next week, but I’m getting inspired, so I whipped a t-shirt for D out tonight. All stash fabrics from the garage, pattern traced from a currently fitting shirt. I’m a little worried about how it’ll hold up, as it’s made from tissue thin jersey, and he has a GINORMOUS […]
Dr Seuss baby bunting quilt
I just realized I’d never posted about this bunting/pennant quilt, made a few weeks ago for a pregnant lady at RK…. Lots of different Dr Seuss fabrics, and some Kona solids…. when you lift up the Kona solids, you’ll find textured fabrics underneath…. I only photographed some of the underneaths, but there is: laminated cotton, […]
Crockett pants
Im preparation for the new arrival…. a pair of wool longies (hopefully a long size 3-6m)… just because, I knitted the Fibonacci sequence in on one leg…. (starting on the left, with the orange: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, and then the cuff…) I also drafted out a pair of 3-6m pants, with extra […]

Baby boy quilt-in-progress, take 2
First, she sorted… (Well, first I sewed, THEN she sorted) Then we played. This one is much smaller, probably 45×55, so it’ll actually be for the baby. But it’s the same fabric line as D’s quilt, so they’ll coordinate. Cause clearly my house is all about coordination (not!) C just ordered me an early birthday […]
Finished quilt…
D requested the black sashing with yellow (perle cotton) stitching to simulate roads…. I pieced the back with the leftover big pieces…. It’s not super noticeable, because I switched thread color A LOT, but each block is FMQ’ed differently… sort of a practice sampler for me… the different quilting is most noticeable from the back, but […]

Fabric paint
I cut the ends off some stalks of celery, and was reminded that the ends make awesome rose stamps… so the Bean and I pulled out some plain home-dec fabric and some fabric paint, and had at it… I did one side, she did the other. I think it’ll be a new bag.
