The progress pride quilt top is done!!!

[janerhoadesart]

Started this quilt about two years ago… And just recently finished piecing it, then basted and started quilting!

I’m quilting by hand—because I dislike quilting with my sewing machine—using thick pearl thread and bigger stitches. This makes it go a little faster.

I also recently stopped using a quilting frame and it’s made it soooo much easier to knock out a ton of work all at once. I’m hoping this one will be ready in about a month for when it gets really chilly at night so it’ll keep me warm all winter!

Oops I stayed up past 1am working on a crafting project again (and also watching Vinland Saga) and I've got to go into the office tomorrow.

Holy jeeze.

Good fucking golly.

The things I get myself into, yeesh.

No way in hell I'm finishing this monster tonight, but BEHOLD NONETHELESS..! This thing is about 63 x 63 inches...

Progress photos for the applique quilt im working on. Im almost positive I've chosen the second worst assembly strategy possible. Right now the whole thing is just incredibly pointy and takes up my entire floor. Technique is -3 out of 10, dont recommend if you enjoy having floor space and not worrying about getting pins in the bottom of your foot

cw: sorry for writing more bedroom shenanigans, it will happen again. unbeta'd, all mistakes are mine. probably some scientific inaccuracies, except for the inertia bits, that i understand. established relationship things and some light swearing. it's all lighthearted 😇

who needs morning alarms when you're partners with naga!jamil?

the first thing to wake you up is the cold press of his scales against your skin. which is the beginning of the end, sad to say. being part-reptile, of course his instincts bring him to search for the closest heat source. as the warm-blooded one in the relationship, you will make do.

which leads to your current predicament - not the comforting feeling of sleeping in his arms, the upper body situation is all fine and dandy on this side, you like the fabric of his sweater, you (both) deeply crave this kind of skinship, it's all good up here! - his coils are twined around your legs, heavy enough to pin you in place, leaving you vulnerable to the cold of the room. as your eyes crack open, what greets you is the dim blue glow of dawn. of course.

in this world of magic, you'd think they'd have created a kind of blanket that doesn't become utterly useless after several hours of shifting in one's sleep. with your limited movement, you manage to free one arm.

"jamil." you shake his shoulder.

"hmm?"

"can you get up, please? i need to shut off the ac."

to your dismay, he makes a vague sound of protest, curls his arms more protectively around you.

"jamil." he can't seriously be going back to sleep.

"it's still early, and you're all nice and warm..." and wasn't that the twisted miracle of this situation? the fact that you woke up before his alarms?

his languidness has got to be a joke. you've seen him move quicker than a bullet. snakes can haul ass when the situation calls for it. you weigh your options, you could yell 'spider' and risk the consequences of a freshly-awoken-and-panicking jamil.

or you could just freeze. who needs legs? who needs to move? the way his fingers idly stroked against the flesh of your stomach was nice and comforting -

"bullshit, you're also freezing...!" he just liked to see you struggle, didn't he? you try kicking your legs in a last bid to free yourself only for his coils to shift and properly entrap you in their grip.

oh that was unfair, being comprised of mostly muscle and having quick reflexes even when half-asleep. damned naga anatomy.

you heave an exasperated sigh through your nose, not even bothering to hide your annoyance.

jamil's breath fans across the back of your neck. "didn't you want to spend more time together like this?" he asks, faux-dejection creeping into his voice.

the skin of your nape erupts in a flurry of goosebumps, definitely not from the cold. you feel like you're burning, and you're not sure if that's a good thing.

so you decide to roll off the bed and take him down with you.

[wyrmscraft]

My nephew has just reminded me that I said I would make his gf of two years a rubber ducky quilt, so here we go.

Now that the wedding is done (still feels crazy to be married!), I can focus on other projects. I’ve been getting back into the Art East Quilting Co Folk Sampler Quilt

Another row sewn on the progress pride quilt!

Starting a new post because I don’t want to go find the old one lol

[janerhoadesart]

i’m just trying to document the layout of this broken dishes quilt i’m trying to complete

& my cat MUST lie down on it

[thingsihavecrochetandknit]

I've loved the Queen's Thief by @meganwhalenturner for a long time! I made a quilt square with Gen's hook and an iris for Irene for my (yet unfinished) fandom quilt 🥰

I'm so tempted to design a new square... maybe with some of Irene's jewelry or Sophos' guns 🤔

[doneknitting]

so, I've been doing that little tapestry quilting project, and I just cut them down to size (as best as I could)

I wanted to make em reversible, which ended up better than I hoped for

All they need now is a border 😅

[captain-habit]

Finished up the checker board portion of this quilt top that uses many of the same fabrics as my "Stars And The Sea" quilt. Its only 35 x 45 inches currently, so it'll eventually get a border, but it will be on hold for now (I have a few babby blankets to finish.)

I will probably end up selling this one once its done, but it might be a while till I finish it unless someone decides to commission me to complete it to their liking lol
