Rise and shine, Earthlings! While I'm off to tackle the daily grind, I couldn't resist brightening your day with some out-of-this-world SCIFI quilts. Here's to thriving and prospering amidst the cosmic chaos of our time!" FYI, I made these!!

I tried quilting for the first time! It was super fun and I learned a lot. It's nowhere near perfect but I'm really proud of it!

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

A quilt for Max and I when we moved in together, 2023

It has plants and animals and our zodiac signs. This is a coverlet, meaning it has no batting in the center. The top and the backing are quilted together and it is cool enough to keep on our bed when the other blankets get put away for the summer.

[Video description: a tour of a quilt top stopping at various blocks to better show the fabrics. And a hole. ]

Decided my next project is going to be finishing this family scrap quilt that I started 10 years ago

It's got a hole where the seams didn't line up that I need to fix, and it's pretty wonky, which is probably why I got frustrated with it and put it away. The fabrics mainly come from my mums stash and there's some really fun ones in here including a scrap from making the curtains for my room at university, scraps from dresses she made, and various outfits from over the years. Lots of silly sentimental bits.

Measures about 1.6 × 1.7 metres at the moment. I've got to decide what to use as the backing as I have buttloads of fabric in my stash that could finally get used.

I began quilting in the 1990s. I have handquilted about 60 sci-fi quilts. It has been many years of trial and error. I was never very good at following quilting patterns. My favorite pattern is the disappearing nine patch. I use it a lot in my quilts. My blocks were never perfect. In fact , I’m most certain every quilt I have made has a mistake or two. There is nothing wrong with making mistakes, I look at the mistake as adding character and artistic deviations to my quilts. :) A quilt doesn’t have to be a complicated design . My first quilt was an appliqué Star Trek baby quilt. It was simple by quilting standards. I worked so hard on it. It took months to finish but I was incredibly proud. As I was learning to quilt, I secretly hoped to make something fancy and worthy of an art show one day. FYI, A little more than 30 years later, I have never entered any of my quilts into an art show. I quilt for me. I quilt to give one of a kind quilts to friends and family…and the occasional acquaintance on the internet. Maybe one day, one of my quilts will make it to outer space. How glorious would that be? Peace to you and yours.
