I finished the Star Trek Doorway quilt. It turned out lovely. I know it looks simple but this was a complicated build. I honestly don’t know how I managed to get the height and width to line up with the outer blocks. #startrek #quilt #handquilting

I’ve decide to try to do quilted banners without using any patterns! The stars are a bit wonky but i’m satisfied with the result. The dog are all hand sewn little pieces of felt!

Finally had an idea for my mini quilt swap! My swap partner likes knitting too so I thought I'd try out a raw edge applique of knitting 🤔

I think i accidentally purled a row here but im liking how the stitches fit together and think I'm ready to go all in and cut all my fabric!

So, my mom went to an estate sale yesterday and left with a quilt. Now, she's a quilter, but she hasn't bought a finished quilt in over a decade. So, the fact she felt compelled to buy this one was noteworthy. Apparently, they were selling it for only $15.

The funky shapes make me wonder for the sanity and marvel at the skill that went into this thing, even with the prolific use of applique. (My mom seemed to imply applique was less difficult than straight sewing, but I have limited experience sewing and none with applique, so the wonder is unfazed.)

Then she mentioned that the fabric used was what really sold her on this quilt: batik.

Batik, for the uninitiated (me, I'm the uninitiated), is a method of dying fabric involving patterned wax preventing the dye from taking in certain parts of the fabric, then melting the wax off and re-dying the whole thing.
