I make stuff. Sometimes I knit or crochet it, sometimes I sew it, sometimes I like to just talk about stuff other people make. What can I say, crafts are cool!
In which I show a new scrappy improv house block I pieced this weekend for my scrappy xmas quilt I started last year. This is clearly going to be a long-term project, lol. I'm slowly catching up on wathing and commenting on everyone's videos on the wordpress site. there have been some really nice things being made by everyone.
TTMT #529 - @nmjewells - November 12, 2024 - Travels and Trophies (Vacay & IQF Show and Tell)
in which I show the few items I bought while I was on vacation and talk about my awesome visit with my BFF and fellow TTMTer @sewhookedjen as well as getting to hang out with our other fellow TTMTer Abbie (sewcrazyvt) from Vermont at International Quilt Festival in Houston and a visit with Jennifer R. As usual I took 2 suitcases (packed one inside the other) for all the treasures I might find and ended up returning with one just as empty as it was on the way there. Since I started working at a quilt shop in 2022 (and since this was my third visit to IQF) I'm just not feeling the FOMO and "gotta buy it all" that I used to feel at an event like this. But it was so amazing to get to spend time with my friends, and, for me, that's what it was all about.
Stay crafty, y'all! And get together with your friends. There's nothing better for the soul.
