Haha, I sewed one row completely wrong, and have to pick out all the stitches. Which of course means I set it aside for "later" and started a new project. ๐Ÿคฃ

Canada quilt in progress, wonder if I'll manage to get it done before Canada Day? #canadianthings #ohcanada #mapleleaf #quiltsky

Pride Quilt Top 2025 is done! I wasn't sure I was happy with how the orange parts blended with the yellow, but I've decided to leave it as is. Now to decide on a backing and quilt it. #quiltsky

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process.

This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

Almost finished piecing my Pride quilt, need to add a black top and bottom border and then I can quilt it. This one will be donated to a local Pride organization.

The craziest thing about this fight between Trump and Elon Musk is that Republicans are trying to take away health care from 16 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

Chaos Block Quilt assembled, I may or may not add an outer border, haven't decided yet. I think I might practice free motion quilting with this. #quiltsky

...start using my iPad and apple pencil pro to do it. What app do I want to use for that? I'm not looking to design quilts, I'm mostly just trying to figure out things like hst placements or things I can do with scraps (see photos), so I'm not looking for something really techy. Any suggestions?

Quilters of bluesky - I recently got a new iPad, my old one was 9 years old and was basically only good for watching videos, so I'm not up to date in my Apple app knowledge (I have a Samsung phone). I usually draw out designs I want to quilt on graph paper and colour them in, but I'd like to (1)

My little quilted table topper is done! It ended up a little bit bigger than I anticipated but that's fine, I'm happy with it. Now to figure out what else I can put something quilted on, maybe the piano? ๐Ÿค” #quiltsky

4 pieces placemats consisting of three rows of 4 flying geese triangles in various colours sit on a green cutting mat. Each placemat is different from the others, but all the triangles are dark with a white based print as the background.

Placemats! Man, I love the instant gratification that comes with a small project. Just deciding if I want to add a border or not. #quiltsky

It's gorgeous, but I think you're right, there's one row that's just kind of jumping out at me as not flowing with the rest of the blues.

Quilted table topper consisting of squares on point in burgundy, white dots, green butterflies, white and blue floral, blue and beige floral, and white and blue geometric print is sitting on a green cutting mat. A pale yellow blue and white striped binding is clipped on, ready to be hand stitched.

I decided to go with the yellow stripe for the binding, and I like it! It feels fresh and doesn't detract from the actual topper. Now, to hand stitch the binding on. #quiltsky

A quilted table topper is sitting on a green cutting mat. The topper is a series of expanding squares set on point, the center is a dark burgundy, then outside that is a white with little green and burgundy dots, then a green with butterflies, then a dark blue and white floral, then a dark blue and beige floral and then in the corners a white and geometric peint. There is a yellow striped fabric and a blue, real, red and coral striped fabric sitting next to it.

I'm making a topper for this little table, and I just need to select a binding fabric. I'm trying to use up all my striped fabrics for bindings (I was gifted a lot of stripes) rather than buy something. I've narrowed it down to these two - does one look better than the other? #quiltsky

And just to be clear, I am a person that actually does conform to a so called "feminine standard", I'm a pretty girly girl. But I don't need to be personally targeted to see and understand the threat.

As a cis woman, I am way more afraid of the men busting into women's bathrooms and assaulting women that don't conform to the way they think a woman should look and act than I will ever be of the transgender people they claim to be protecting me from.

The coffee table is sitting on top of a rug and behind the table is a brown couch with one red and white quilt and one multicoloured quilt spread out to cover the seat cushions.

Quilted table runner is done and I love how it looks! Is like to make something coordinating to replace the quilts on my couch now but maybe in low volume neutral tones and not exactly the same pattern but using HSTs. The flowers were my mothers Day gift from kid 2. #quiltsky

I always hand sew my bindings, I've never been happy with how they come out on the machine and I always like having something to with my hands at night when I watch tv.

All quilted, and the binding half stitched on, ready for finishing. I tried a striped binding for the first time, I think I like it. I'll hand stitch the binding to the back tonight. #quiltsky

Table runner almost done for the coffee table, just need to quilt it now and bind it. That'll be a project for tomorrow because my neck is really sore now. #quiltsky
