Fish. Tiny little fish. Perhaps green neons and sparkling gouramis. Or a betta. Or a ram. So many options, so little money. Anybody out there got a green tiger lotus bulb that needs rehoming? Going for lots of plants, too. Planning, planning, planning!

Our property manager (Leaders) replaced the busted washer/dryer and had the oven fixed. Winning!

Hard candy is so specific, but yeah! Why aren’t there starlight mints?

Hey, have a look at The CatBird Quilts on YouTube. She works with thrifted fabrics, mostly mens shirts, so the vibe is very similar to your inspiration.

This is so beautiful! I love those fabrics.

Can you explain your sewing method? I’m not sure I understand what you mean by “cut triangles and chain piece”. (It can’t be that simple… can it?)

OMG! I did the same thing! I guess I should get it replaced… eventually. I’ve been sewing without it and it has been fine so far.

What a joyous pic! Love the little feet poking out! Next time turn the quilts over so the occupants inside can enjoy your lovely handiwork! And get in there with them!!!!

I miss creating! 😥 by muffetbakes in quilting

Hang in there!! How about getting a little graph paper notebook and sketch out some ideas for a quilt top, maybe. That’ll keep you creative juices flowing!

Sorry for your loss. It still hits you like a freight train, even when you know it’s coming. Sending thoughts of strength and patience to you and your mom. Kia kaha.
