Finished the new baby's quilt. She's here and I'm so happy!
This was my first time using a ruler like this for my quilting. Definitely took some getting used to but I'm loving the results! Also my first time making flying geese.

How many times can I stitch variations on colour wheels? At least a few more, anyway. My own design.
This is the second piece I've done that blends contrasting colours in blackwork, and I'm learning to trust the process. In both cases, it looked horribly messy while I was stitching, but then when it was finished and I could step back to look at it, I could finally see the gradient effect I was going for.

Here is the finished quilt that I made for a friend's wedding gift. It is about 95 by 102 inches, so roughly queen size. I'm pretty happy with the end result, there was a lot of work that went into it.

I highly recommend it! It's super portable and once you get the hang of your preferred stitch and build up the calluses, it's really satisfying.

The texture. The colors. The memories. I don't think there's a single thing I dislike about this quilt.
This quilt is made of ~2500 1" hexagons using the English Paper Piecing method. The fabrics have been collected across my years of crafting. Some are from my mom. Some are from the very first quilt I made when I was 11. I hand sewed every single hexagon together and then, because I'm completely batty, I hand quilted the echo lines that hold the layers together.
I've worked on this quilt for 23 months. In those stitches are memories I will never forget. This quilt has seen me through my wedding, the death of two grandparents, two miscarriages, one ectopic pregnancy, the loss of my childhood dog, the acquiring of my second dog, half of the COVID pandemic, and 7.5 months of my current pregnancy. To say this is priceless would be an understatement. I hope everyone enjoys looking at it as much as I do, and also can find healing and happiness through their art.

Listen I am not going to name anyone specifically, but pattern makers need to talk to one (1) fat person before they can post their patterns online.
I am so sick of finding a cute pattern, getting all the supplies, checking my gage, and starting to knit, only to find that my sleeves are a foot longer than a normal human because the pattern maker just multiplied all their numbers by 10 when they sized it up. I can't believe I have to say this but, just because my ass is fat does not mean my arms go down to my knees???

pretty sure this quilt took me a year! it was composed of several fabric packs that i got online which turned out to neither be enough fabric for their own project or match any of the other packs very well, so i had to assemble the stars very carefully. after the wild and crazy thrill of color coordination, i got really bored and stopped working on it for six months. but now it’s done! hooray :)

It took me a month but I did it.
I made this with my own hands.
I'm meeting Vico in 3 days and 2 of those days I'm working so this was literally my last day to finish it and I managed it with 2 hours to spare. (So I'm making an eye patch for my eevee bag).
I decided to hand stitch the skeletons down and I do not regret it at all it looks so good.
The day the skeleton-mermaid flag was released as the season 2 teaser I wanted to make this, it's the original pride flag colours with the progressive triangle and I worked so hard to get fabric in the right colours. (I work in a fabric store so (👉■_■)👉)
And then I've never really quilted before but this is very much like a quilt and I'm going to get Vico to sign it. I hope to one day get the whole cast to sign it tho who the f knows if some of them would come to an Australian convention.

According to the designer, this stitch pattern is titled “avocado”
Tumblr media
Not sure pink is the color I would have picked if the image I was attempting to conjure was avocados but that is just me.

I recently finished this commission for several knitted entrelac neck warmers -- asexual, bisexual, rainbow, and aromantic pride colours, and one pillow (aro colours). I currently have one each of the transgender and pansexual pride neck warmers pictured in stock.
The neckwarmers are $50 each plus shipping.  They are 100% acrylic, and measure roughly 15x13 inches.  The pillow version is $75 plus shipping.
Please feel free to message me at any time to place an order, inquire about custom work, or with any questions at all you might have!

Yes, to anyone asking, this quilt (except for the binding) was entirely hand sewn. The technique is called English Paper Piecing. Using paper templates, you glue/sew your fabric onto the templates to hold the shape (in my case hexagons) and then hand sew the pieces together while they're still on the templates. I believe (don't quote me, I'm not a scholar) this was very popular in WWII era England because it was very scrap friendly and used minimal materials.
So yea, it's about 2500 1" hexagons handsewn together over the course of 23 months. And because that wasn't crazy enough, I then hand quilted the entire thing in rainbow colors echoing my hexagons.
I draw the line at binding. That I did with a machine (hence the first picture).
Once I have two people tall enough to hold the whole thing up, I'll post some better pictures.
Better pictures and post coming, but she is done.
