I ripped out seams on this so many times! And stil I ripped out seams on this so many times! And still there is a mistake that I just saw. My covid brain fog almost kept me from finishing, but I decided done is better than perfect. I really wanted to get a cool 3d look, but just couldn't figure it out. 24x30" preemie baby charity quilt. Flannel back. Minimal quilting because it needs to be soft. #charityquilts #quiltersofinstagram #projectquiltingchallenge #pqcseason15 @quiltchicken @persimondreams

Taking my mini quilt from last week and turning it Taking my mini quilt from last week and turning it into a bag. My goal is for this to be a sewing tools bag for when I go to retreats and classes. So making lots of interior pockets and trying to only use stuff on hand. But looks like I will need to break down and buy some mesh.
UFO no. 12 done. This one was a scrap quilt made t UFO no. 12 done. This one was a scrap quilt made to learn long arming in a class. I ran out of time and the last 10 inches didn't get quilted. So I had to finish on my domestic and bind. It will go to charity. Washing it a few times with some color catchers since I know the red is going to run. #ufochallenge #apqresolution #quilting #quiltersofinstagram #charityquilts

"The Red One" project Quilting challenge no. 1 for "The Red One" project Quilting challenge no. 1 for 2023. The theme was "one." I created a red monochromatic min quilt. (17" × 29") It is also the first time I have used a double needle for quilting. And it is the 1" strip prototype for an illusion block that will be used for a future escher quilt. #projectquiltingchallenge #artquilt #miniquilt #quiltersofinstagram #quilting @persimondreams #pqseason14 @quiltchicken
