cute quick rainbow potholder for my coworker! she said her kitchen is rainbow and has fiestaware which is soooo cute. Maybe a little babyish but I've been really wanting to use this fat quarter pack for something!

this was super interesting ... went to a free class about "fidget quilts" for people with dementia. I think I'll try making something similar for babies in my family, since it's softer than a busy board.

honestly it was fun getting out of my comfort zone and making something just to make it without any rhyme or reason. The aesthetics were out of my control, and the goal was to finish it in 2 ½ hours... so it was not my cleanest work- but enjoyable!! the binding looks horrid since I was really just trying to get on with it as fast as possible... there weren't even seam rippers available, any mistake you made was a happy accident!

Purple sunset quilt, ~48x~48

my aunt is due very soon, so I finally finished a quilt for the baby. I kind of hesitate to call it a baby quilt because of the size, but the 48x48 is kind of my trademark at this point. too small to use as a blanket, too big for a wheelchair.. just right as a lap quilt on the couch 😭

her only request was "purple" and as you can see I kind of failed that request miserably. I wanted to use fabrics from my stash instead of buying new stuff, and also I realized I hate purple and magenta fabric. So with this in mind, I attempted a sort of sunset design. I think it turned out okay for my first machine quilted project. I've only ever tie-quilted, so I mimicked where I would've tie quilted in the ditches. I wish I'd taken a picture of the back, I am pretty proud of it.

I have yet to figure out how to make a quilt that is not WRINKLY beyond belief, but that is probably because I do these on the floor and they're not taut enough before pinning.

anywho if you read all of that I'm sorry!! I just wanted to jot down some thoughts before I completely forget abt the construction of this thing.

disclaimer: I dislike Harry Potter

below for quilt and life nonsense

so, this was my first quilt ever, a gift to my aunt. it was made 5 years ago, and now it is Tearing at the Seams. or lack thereof since I did not understand the importance of seam allowance at the time. I will add damage pictures to my next post lol. heed the word of your elders when they say you need a nice seam allowance.

it is another back burner project to fix the beast up. honestly thinking about running it through the sewing machine on the nonexistent ditches and then crying because it's tie quilted. there's some points I should probably do some hand work because it's so pulled apart or add patches?

Regardless of my dislike of Harry Potter I want my aunt to still be able to use the quilt as long as she can, especially with having a baby on the way.
