I am quite proud of this stitching line.

I wish they all looked this nice, but in the end they won't even be seen. I will just enjoy the pretty ones while I can.

Question for armor enthusiasts and quilters out there.

So if I hypothetically wanted to make a non metal armor costume that looks like "everyday" wear. Could I use leather wrapped silk in the style of English paper piercing for the joints?

Quilt progress: a respectable 800 hexagons so far. I bet you even forgot I was making a quilt, huh? Well I didn't forget. Nuh uh

all 36 flower blocks for my english paper piecing quilt :)

I am working on my English paper piecing quilt some more today. Attaching the 4th ring of hexagon flowers and making hex flowers in purple for the 5th ring.

Having some anxiety over it and fears that my hand-sewing is basically at kindergarten level, and it's awful, and since I'm not producing amazing art quilts or stuff that belongs in the quilt museum, that my work is pointless.

It is not done (needs seam binding and strap), but over the weekend I made a fish purse.

The pattern is here https://www.thegirlandthelamb.com/shop/swim-along-sewing-pattern and I used EPP to make the scaled body.

Another one of my EPP quilted pieces I finished recently. This was originally going to be joined into a large panel in combination with the other one I did (see here), but I decided they would work better as independent pieces.

This was my first foray into non-hexagonal paper piecing as well as designing my own EPP patterns, and I've certainly learned a lot! Very tricky to get the piecing to work sometimes, but easy enough to design and pull together. I'd love to pattern out a full sized quilt using this style, but I imagine it will be much more difficult to complete. We'll see!

Thanks for looking :)

Making progress on my epp fabric :> this is eventually supposed to be a quilted make up bag

Starting a new quilt for my friend using a color scheme I don't usually use. This will actually be turned into a quilted laptop case and the fabric folded on top is the inspiration/will be the backing on the other half of the laptop case. This is actually a belated Christmas gift exchange with my friend who is knitting me a hat. She's okay with it being late and I finally have some time to dedicate to working on it

I keep forgetting to post this. I got the first row done on my EPP quilt before my neuropathy got too bad. We'll see if I can get this figured out so I can hand sew again and finish this bad boy!

The dawn of a new quilt.

I thought I'd hung up my patchworking hat, but...

"Kindergarten Geometry"

[liefst]

between 846 and 863 hexagons later ! oof! i counted twice and must have miscounted at some point. either way, i finally have enough hexagons to go on to the next step – to sew them together. found some thread in my stash that i bought years ago at the market for a project i never ended up doing. i think it'll be a nice neutral colour to tie the different colours together.

Stayed up way past my bedtime today but have made progress on another block!

The quilt top is finally finished :) now to do the rest
