you could do one for each season! or make a fuck the weather quilt
I’ve never made even *one* quilt, let alone a series of themed seasonal quilts. I also generally feel weird making stuff that I’m not going to give away, although let’s be real, I never finish anything, so...
It just feels like it would be so extravagant of *time*. To make a whole quilt, and just for me?
But maybe I’ll keep making little embroideries like this and eventually put it together into something. I should start working on the definite pieces i’ve semi-planned, first, and I should do it this way-- tiny pieces at a time, finish each tiny piece etc.,-- to get it done.
Being productive is haaarrrrd. Maybe I’ll just collect a big box of scraps that are either blue, white, black, covered in penguins, or all of the above, and embroider things on pieces of them as I go, and if I wind up with enough for a lap quilt I’ll do that.
@albymangroves once told me I should make a crazy quilt but I never did. Maybe I should.
I helped my mom make like a ton of reversible bowl holders for a talent show and silent auction she was helping with. These two were the ones I disliked the least. My mom and I have very different tastes when it comes to patterns and color schemes.
