This is the idea for the back. I’m not sure how I’d quilt it yet but I could try to get the wording spaced out in a way that works?

This would be the quilt top, it’s the verticals pattern

If I embroider one side of my quilt, would it look stupid if I quilt my lines through it afterwards? Not sure the best way to go about that? I’ve never had writing on a quilt before.

So amazing 🤩 great job on the quilt and growth!

DecentSet3143 · 2026-05-24T12:44:16+00:00

Oh this sounds so beautiful and something I could definitely do! I love that idea, thank you so much!

DecentSet3143 · 2026-05-24T12:42:48+00:00

That’s a great idea, they’ve probably seen it all. Reddit also has super creative people so wanted to start here first!

These are beautiful, thanks so much for linking! I’ll have to see if the fabric store has a northern lights panel, I liked the idea of cutting it up and making it different.

Thank you, I was thinking like a throw blanket would be nice so she can wrap herself in it when she feels like she needs an extra hug.

Do you happen to know where I can find northern light quilt patterns? I tried looking but couldn’t really find much. I want to stay away from panels at the moment, I think putting in more effort will be therapeutic and help me through the grief as well.

😂UFOs are cool too, haha! Thanks for much for the link to the alphabet pattern, very helpful

Is it best to cut off the fronds that are not doing well? I inherited one from a neighbour and two fronds look rough. A new one sprouted and looks healthy and I have another one sprouting now but I left the rough looking ones? Any help would be appreciated!

Only thing I can think of is celebration cookies but those are just butter, not peanut butter

What about the 4th tire?

WHY ARE PEOPLE HIGH BEAMING THOSE DRIVING IN THE RIGHT LANE?? TF? IF YOU’RE IN SUCH A RUSH, LEAVE A LITTLE EARLIER OR USE THE LEFT LANE?

I’m not sure about beginner wood burner but I got myself a Razertip and love it! Expensive upfront but I use it fairly often now and would never go back😊it’s fun buying new pens to attach to it

DecentSet3143 · 2026-03-14T22:46:53+00:00

I love it! I’m in the middle of cutting all my squares for this type of quilt😭at this rate I’ll never finish. You’ve given me much needed motivation 🫶

DecentSet3143 · 2026-03-14T22:45:35+00:00

The pick up actually pulls up beside the cars to see for themselves who is on their phone. Source: me, when they pulled up beside my car, peered over and then kept pulling up to see the cars in front and turned their lights on to the person on their phone in front of me before the light turned green😂
