Spun up this Raven’s wing Bluefaced Leicester wool top from Hello Yarn over the weekend on my Schacht flat iron wheel. It’s so soft and squishy! Might be my favorite spin yet!

2 oz of Falkland wool spun up…I’ll finish the other half and create a 2 ply. Will probably be fingering or sport when all is said and done. #helloyarn #besotted #eew6.1 #spinningwool #fiberjoy

Attempting to learn how to spin wool on a Russian spindle. I think I’m starting to catch on but there is a lot more to learn.

When you are studying Spanish and your phone auto corrects words from English to Spanish…😂😉

Fall is my favorite season…I love waking up and enjoying a latte under a cozy blanket with my pups. Rest and relajado are importante especially in these days of democracy under fire. Watching @laurakampf.bsky.social live as she talks about being a creative. Is this a path I want to traverse?

Finished 9 blocks for the Laundry Basket Quilts 2025 Mystery Quilt-along in Dahlia.

Refurbishing this beautiful Singer 27 treadle sewing machine built in 1899. This is a reminder of the women who came before me who contributed to the world around them. A reminder of the women who were not allowed to leave their abusive spouses, have bank accounts, or vote. #NeverGoingBack

Thank you!

Thank you!

Been getting some knitting in so I have some new fall sweaters.. have 3 more sweaters that are nearly complete. 😁 given the level of inflation this is really helping me out. Thank goodness for the stash! 🧶

Pumpkin Spice season is upon us so what better than a pumpkin spice quilt? In today’s world I’m looking for any bit of joy I can find. I hope these blocks bring you joy! #joansews pattern #pumpkinspice

I'm hearing "political violence has no place in America" from people who were more than OK with what happened on Jan 6, 2021.

I love that it protects my spindle from getting broken in my bag and stops anything getting into my fiber.

#tourdefleece2025 Day #3 my only commitment is five minutes a day to reduce stress. Love this little spindle for on the go spinning.

I have no words because I still feel all the lies Bush told us before he started the war in Iraq. Therefore I give an unrelated picture with hopes that you will seek out truth and take breaks for self care. Even in darkness we can find light…we just have to look harder.

‘Extremely disturbing and unethical’: new rules allow VA doctors to refuse to treat Democrats, unmarried veterans Trump order allows VA staff to decline providing healthcare to patients based on political affiliation or marital status

My first time starching fabric before a project. This was for the Dizzy class by Kelly Ashton at KCRQF last week.

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco

From a place of watching America slip away from us, I encourage my Canadian friends to get out and vote. Don’t let what happened to us happen to you! Use your voice and cast your ballot!

Thank you!

Did a mini quilt-a-long a couple weeks ago. I’m starting to get an itch to spin again but for now quilting helps me miss my grandmother a little less. I can’t imagine what she’d think of the world today. She was lucky to graduate college as a librarian when most women didn’t get the opportunity.

The world has been too much and I’ve needed time to refresh so I can return strong. Quilting has cleared my head and given me space to support those around me. Needing time doesn’t mean we’ve given up or stopped speaking it means we are preparing for the next battle.

Hate and greed are strong emotions and they gave in to those emotions.

Glad you’re here Ben! Looking forward to following your story!

A senator stepping up to protect people when the foolish felon refused.

I hope they are watching us so they know he lies! He promises then doesn’t follow through even for people who liked him.

Don’t think they’ll stop there either!

And yet he reversed all the things Biden did to bring prescription drug costs down for us!

And the Supreme Court is killing it.

The first people to get laid off should be the CEOs! Especially if they supported getting the felon into office.
