Quilts and textiles

Just dropped off these bébés @penpalsstore Still using up the ittybitty scraps from the Lisa Congdon piece I finished last year 🌈
Punch needle stripy escapism... it's the stabbing that feels so sweet
A little EPP play. Learning to thread baste instead of glue baste was a game changer for me. I popped all those hexies out in a minute or less.
I've recently become obsessed with punch needle, after not being able to figure it out for SO long. I just don't know what to do with it...
I painted these a couple years ago- from one of my childhood faves. Maybe I'll paint one today. I hope today is full of color and community, whatever that looks like for you. 💕
If you need a distraction from the horror show- might I suggest a visit to @penpalsstore You will find the most delightful slection of joyful items... and I just dropped off these quilted postcards 💕
Truth be told, I still have Halloween pillows on my couch. Time to stitch up some pillow covers with a more spring/summer vibe. Twyla approves.
Today self care is prepping this rummage sale quilt top for basting and rewatching Ted Lasso.
Happy Mardi Gras! Pattern purchased on Etsy some time ago- will credit when I have time to dig😊
