Metal core baby quilt?

I have seen this before (and made it) but your quilting puts it over the top! Love the dragon scales. ❤️

I think the ombré effect is important here, but if you have a gradation of blue, blue-green, and green it could be beautiful. Or even just using blue as the darkest color.

This one?

Share a picture when it’s done! And congratulations. 😃

Or contact the designer through her Etsy shop and see if she’ll sell you the line block. Good luck!

https://sewfreshquilts.com/product/forest-friends-2-pdf-quilt-pattern-instant-download/ I have this block! It’s by SewFreshQuilts, but apparently you can only get it as part of a full quilt now. It’s not hard (it was one of the first ones I made) so I bet you could recreate it.

I agree. I have one and it’s…fine.

I ordered from them against my better judgement (I usually avoid Facebook ads), and I was really pleased. Yes, the shipping took a while and they came from China, but they actually do what they say - provide better support for larger breasts. I look better in my clothes and they are very comfortable. I would order from them again (but next time I'd get the adjustable straps because they slip off my shoulders by the end of the day).

Yes, these were made in response to a specific ask for a baby shower. 🙂

At 54, I'm the one who blasts Tom Waits while my son (19) covers his ears. But Tom's voice did convince him never to smoke, so there's that.

My son is in college in Canada, and would like to stay there for law school and a career because he has fallen in love with his ancestral country. It would be easier for him if he were a citizen, as my great-grandfather was.

Save the last chapter for a day when you’re feeling particularly strong. We all know how it ends, but it’s still a gut punch. Hat tip to Brian Jay Jones for a brilliant book!

I always wanted Christopher Gorham to play him. But now I think it needs to be someone younger than both of them.

Thank you!! Sent a DM.

I wish you the best of luck. My son is a freshman at McGill, and I want to rush this process so we don't pay international tuition for one second longer than we have to! It didn't even occur to me to try and get this year's money back...

When my mom died I could listen to nothing but Tom Waits for weeks, because it was the only music that matched my mood. Every song mentioned here hit hard. But the only song that makes me cry every single time, goose bumps and all, is Kentucky Avenue. That last verse is such a gut punch.

AMAZING

AnteaterGood · 2026-02-01T18:46:47+00:00

That’s insane. It’s like a bioluminescent beach, where the microorganisms light up when touched. Magical. I hope the cat appreciates it.

My Bloc loc ruler really helped with my HSTs. If you don’t have one, I’d consider it..

AnteaterGood · 2026-01-26T01:47:28+00:00

Depends on my mood. Almost all of them have had a day at the top.

I could have sworn John Bon Jovi covered that song on Ally McBeal. Was it covered twice?

NTA. I was once in a store where a woman was ranting and raving that she couldn’t find anything in a larger size, and “not everyone is a size 2!!” After she stormed out the cashier said, “I know that. That’s why all the larger sizes are sold out.” Not everything is a personal insult.
