What the heck! Getting back to Blogging!

Okay... I didn't fall off the planet.  I am here, I've been sewing and patterning and so many things!  I am updating this blog over the course of this next week with new patterns (and some older not posted) that I've been working on, and lots of project posts!  Enjoy!

HAMILTON!!!!

So I've done it.
Work!!
I created my first set of quilt patterns - AND so far so good.  I've created a page pinned just above the blog for untested patterns (and linked the ones already up over at Fandom In Stitches) - Hope you guys love them!

Because I do.
Wait for it....

Greyscale

I love doing these swap pieces.  I've decided I really do want to try some things outside of fandom quilting, so I've signed up for a Greyscale Swap!  My partner really likes geometric shapes, and so I pulled these fabrics to use in it.... Greyscale is a huge challenge! #greyscaleswap

FiS Quilt Swap - Take 2

So I got an email a bit earlier that my partner has dropped out.

Sigh.

This is my luck.  It's a good thing that I have kids that would adore this same piece (and have already asked, joked, and wished for it).

For just a moment I was sad about it.  And then I realized...  if my partner dropped maybe someone else did too.  and as luck would have it, that was the case.  so now I'm on a new swap piece....

A combination of a niffler, hufflepuff scarf, and you guessed it... a suitcase I designed myself.  I'm pretty happy with my idea, I just hope it comes out like I think it will.

and..... it's done!

This was so fun!  I hope my swap partner loves it!

FiS Quilt Swap Update

I love how this is coming together so much!  My tardis in smoke ring pattern worked out really well and I'm pleased that it didn't have too many errors!

More Hamilton

Oh.

I. am. addicted.

Seriously.

First of all, addicted to Hamilton the musical.  It speaks to my soul the same way Les Miserables does, or amazing cello music or .... well you get the picture.

But I really mean addicted to designing.  I understand now why so many people switch to designing. Here's a few more designs in the works...



(this pattern has two pistols mirror imaged)



and because I"m a glutton for punishment.... I also messed around with embroidery patterns for the quotables that I want to incorporate.
And now I dig in and start sewing...
