I couldn’t resist starting another Luminous once I saw this line of fabric. It’s called Color Collage by Shelley Davies from Northcott and it’s been in the back of my mind for ages.

I’m using six colours in the piecing, which should make it 92”x109” (unless I mess with the pattern even more and take one of the rows out completely) which will technically be a king size LOL The seventh colour pink is gonna be used on the binding so I get to use alllll the colours we had in stock in the shop 🎉

Someone please stop me, I can’t stop making these fucking things lmao 😭😭😭😂😂😂 I had a plan to do something else but I couldn’t help it!

[wyrmscraft]

Okay, blocks done and middle rows complete!

I did take one row out of the centre so there are only two red centre blocks instead of three. 109” is too big for my queen bed, but I can work with 101” LOL

Technically this will still fit a king at 92”x101”, but I am a blanket hog and that feels like a really skinny king to me.

ALSO??

Because I altered the amount of rows (downsizing) but did not alter the amount of blocks I made, I ended up with just enough left over to make two matching pillow cases! They are even on point like the quilt.

This is gonna look spectacular on a bed.

It’s so beautiful…. 😭😭😭💖💖💖

And it’s so fucking big LOL

Not as big as the greyscale king for my brother, but still. It feels big.

As you can see a little from the roll on the back of the long arm, I found a fun rainbow universe print to put on it with all the colours on the front.

I’m quilting the pillowcases too, though in a tighter pattern so they can handle more washing.

I can’t wait to put this on a bed.

I love it so much. My favourite Luminous, I swear.

The pillow cases look so good too. As I mentioned, I quilted them much tighter than the quilt so they can be thrown in the wash a lot more. Same pattern, just smaller design.

It’s so busy, I could stare at it for hours finding things in the prints.

Also? I love the pink binding. I really did want to use every colour, so this was a nice compromise to having to resize everything LOL

The backing is also so busy LOL You can hide a lot of pet fur on both sides of this thing.

The pillowcases turned out great. I used the leftover from the backing to back the pillow cases so that everything matches. And they’re envelope style so the pillows won’t slip out. Hate it when the pillowcase slips off my pillow.

I had to sew three 45” wide strips of fabric together for the backing to fit on the long arm. Since the quilt was only 101” at its widest, I had a whole 30” strip that was usable and perfect for this.

Rusty Mustached Bat Pteronotus rubiginosus

It has a wide distribution through Central America, the Caribbean, and northern South America. Pteronotus rubiginosus in some cases forms substantial populations, ranging from tens of thousands to millions of individuals. The caves that house these large populations are called bat caves and, in some cases, they can also be called hot caves when such caves have higher temperatures due to the body heat radiated by the colonies formed by tens of thousands of bats.

It's funny how my crafting preferences are pretty firmly divided between "yeah I'll just wing it most of the time" and "nope, can't be bothered"

Like "I found out you can KNIT top down starting at the middle top line of the hood, and now I started CROCHETING a couple granny stitch things using that knowledge"

Vs "I would rather not only follow a chart, but also have ALL the mats provided" for cross stitch and diamond painting

Another example of just winging it ideas: I got some variegated yarn i want to use on a sweater, but I don't even know if I'll have enough for that. So I'm gonna start with the front panel and sleeves and maybe get a different yarn for the back. AND then I got an idea to knit a mohair lace overlay for the front panel, because I got some REALLY fine mohair... I'll need to swatch said mohair first though, to see if it will look good

Also ye the top down crochet hoodie is neon lemon+hot pink stripes (combined they kinda look green and purple, which is really neat), and I'm already on the raglan increases part because of course I'm making it raglan. Also the front is open and has extra 3 clusters on each side for overlap. Idk when it will get finished, but it will
