Olivia Alaniz - The Quilty VA

Quiltcon bag update—

I started making it at 6 pm, took a break for dinner, and finished it at 2:30 am. 🎉

A huge shoutout to Noodlehead patterns for being so easy to follow! 🖤

The webbing got updated to delivery on Wednesday aka the day I leave 😑

Guess I’m making straps out of fabric!

Possibly - we’ll have to see how much I have after attaching things to my body pieces. But like the thought of removing it later and replacing with webbing after seems horrid so it’ll likely be a permanent solution 😬

It’s not looking good for this bag, yall. 😭 The webbing is the only thing lagging behind and it doesn’t even have a delivery date yet. I’m so sad.

Update 2: two of the four orders have shipped and should be arriving on Thursday 🎉

I’m reflecting on my decision to buy everything for this Oxbow bag and feel like I made a mistake because how could it all get here in time?

Might need to borrow a sewing machine in Phoenix 😬

Technically it’s 10 days because I thought today was the 9th but yeahhhh hahaha

Update: ordered everything so now we wait and hope everything works out 🤞

OMG 🥲 I hope this one works out a little better!

I’ll never learn 😭😭

Uh oh - wanting to make a bag again 😬 but I leave for quiltcon in ~9 days and need to order stuff for it 😬

Will it happen?

Super not happy with the way the Oliso leaks with water in the reservoir 😭 I so wish I could use it for steam but it’s not worth the spillage to try. 😬

The cutest little face and omg love the colors 😍

It’s Monday.

I think I’m just having a heard time understanding the reasoning? Like kudos for taking a stand but go stand somewhere else where it makes sense? Small businesses lit have no control over anything.

The email being sent to multiple businesses in the quilt world by the Canadian boycotter has me worked up. 🔥

I feel like this one is very reasonable lol

Adding my vote here ✅ hahah

Hahahah that’s what I’m here for though 😉

Yes I’ll be there!

I have an eye twitch that won’t go away. Ya girl is struggling over here 😭

Idk girl 😭

Was the tiny panic attack extra or did it come with the meal? Need to know for when it’s my time.

Was there ever a choice? Save my seat, lady!!

I’ll be there! Super excited to see the award ceremony for the first time 🖤

As best you can, ignore him.

Should I or do I need to make business cards for quiltcon?

1 ( absolutely not) - 10 (um yes? of course)

✌️

Haha I love that. Andy 🥹

I wanna know if the panda has a name 🤔 I think we should all help name this new friend!
