Another two fabric quilt on the go. This one may end up being for me because I love both of these fabrics. I ended up buying about six or so meters each of them with no plans because I like them so much.

I’m gonna do nine patches and bordered squares and put them on point.

I saw a photo of something similar in creams and reds a long time ago and took a screen shot of it, and saw it while I was scrolling through my ‘Quilts to Make’ file. Decided to pull these out and give it a go.

No idea what size it’ll end up, but if I stick to 6x7 blocks with a border it should end up about 64”x72” I think. Which is a nice throw size to cuddle on the couch with.

Of course…

If I really like it after I lay it out, I may have to make more blocks and make it big enough for my bed.

[wyrmscraft]

Oooh that’s pretty.

Not enough to make bigger, I think more contrast between the two fabrics would look even better, but this will make a lovely couch quilt!

She ended up 70”x85”, which is a pretty nice twin if a bit short, but it would also layout on a queen with little overhang if someone was looking for a display kind of quilt.

I have a dark teal cotton in mind for backing and Robin’s Egg blue for the quilting thread, which is basically the same colour as the light blue fabric.

Haven’t decided on whether to use the space fabric for the binding or the backing fabric for binding. Either would work.

[wyrmscraft]

Had to continue the space theme with the quilting. Pattern is called Interstellar and I did use Robin’s Egg thread on the top and a medium light grey on the back so you could see the stars and swirls on the backing.

I did end up using the constellation fabric for the binding and love the way it looks against the border.

I know I said I was thinking teal for the back, but this blue and black crosshatched print I found in my stash looked nice. I think it was actually what I was originally going to use with the constellation fabric LOL I had enough to back it and just went with it.

it really is quite bad for your military to have an image of itself as a warrior class. what you really want is for your soldiers to think of themselves as boring professionals who will fill out a report form if someone gets a little too warrior ethos out there

this post and all its wonderful additions (look in the notes) is circulating again. these photos and many of the ones added in the notes come from the US Southwest.

right now the trump administration is attacking the public lands in the Southwestern US. most recently (July 2026), in Utah the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments have been cut by over 90% to allow for mining. these lands are sacred to multiple Native nations in the area and contain irreplaceable archeological sites. additionally, the commission of Native representatives who aided in management of these lands has been dissolved leaving Native people without a voice in caring for the remaining land. (read more here)

here in New Mexico, the 10 mile buffer zone surrounding Chaco Canyon preventing oil and gas drilling is under attack. Chaco Canyon contains incredibly old and incredibly fragile archeological sites sacred to Pueblo people. these sites are threatened by mining and drilling. (read more here)

The attack on the Chaco buffer zone is currently in a public comment period open until July 29. PLEASE leave a public comment to save these irreplaceable places.

How to fix a ripped plushie (clear and easy to follow) by 浪浪山陈三丫头手缝师傅

[pocket-deer-belly]

ok thank god there's so many fucking videos showing you how to do a ladder stitch like it's some kind of magic trick but here's the actual use case for it: closing a seam you can't reach the inside of. in all other cases, if you're fixing a ripped seam on pants, or on a tshirt, the ladder stitch is a messy, glorified running stitch.

[palaeoplushies]

Essential plush making technique, this one! Very good video, a lot of tutorials are kinda hard to parse for me.
