16 days in to my temperature dragon quilt, already have some drastic temperature shifts from about -10F to 34F. The cold end of the spectrum is fairly normal, and now unfortunately, the rain in Anchorage in January is, too. #temperaturequilt #temperaturequilt2022 #climatechange #climatecrisis
I think it wants to be a blue quilt.. I thought the burgundy was the dominant color but it said nah. And then I thought come on, tell the truth and that’s when the black declared itself. Black is strength. Black is the ink I write with. Black is wisdom. Black absorbs all the joy and pain and fear and love… definitely a work in progress. Thank you to @sherrilynnwood and Mary Margaret Pettway and all the other makers in today’s Floating Squares workshop. This was my first time working with this score but I think I like it. 😉I’m gonna take this challenge for a long walk now and come back and see what happens. Happy Saturday, friends. #bravepatchschool #abstractpiecing #improvquilting #wip #floatingsquaresscore
Bluebell is a dirty girl after a double batch of snickerdoodles. I wasn’t gonna bake in January to ease up on the butter intake, but someone is going snowmachining and needs trailsnacks.
I’m almost done! This is the one and only tease before I send it off to its new home with @kellygreenthumb00 #makeaminimakeafriend #mqgminiswap #mqgminiswap2022 #mqg
In case you hadn’t seen a pheasant pie go by in your feed tonight, here you go.
Course correction on day two of my Temperature Quilt—I’m abandoning the four patch and instead making a huge climate dragon thing. It’s going to be huge and ridiculous and the idea flew by in a dream last night. I have no idea what this year will hold for us, and I have no idea how this quilt will turn out. But I know I want it to be more than just a data collection piece. And I love going forward into the unknown. #quiltsofinstagram #temperaturequilt #temperaturequilt2022 #climatechange #climatecrisis
