What Have I Been Doing?

Image
 Well, I've been up to quite a LOT  (sewing wise). I tried out paper piecing, finally, for two Fallout themed wall hanging:     I made a few thread catchers for my two machines (only took a photo of one though).     I got my tattoo finished (the Ooogie Boogie wall hanging was given to my tattoo artist) I also started on an experimental piece which broke my brain trying to figure out how to do it in both/either Quilting Assistant and/or Electric Quilt. You can take a look at the guide I made to and what I have done so far.   Here is a cute pic of my kitty to make it all okay.

New Year...New Post!

Image
 I'm not dead, I swear! I actually have a bunch of stuff to share with everyone... so hold on to your hats! First off, one of my newer patterns has been tested. The updated pattern is up on the site. Teddy has also been submitted to Fandom-in-Stitches, so I hope it will be up there soon too. I've also caught the quilting bug myself... though I haven't yet taken the plunge into paper piecing (I know... I know... I will, I promise!) Here are some of my FOs! Two completed jelly roll lap quilts (patterns from my head) and four quilt-as-you-go stocking for my family. I also made myself a nice little shirt. And this mask (out of leather, it was a kit) for Halloween: I also got a nifty Instagram account...not sure how much I'll use it, but it exist. Oh, and this is also happening (but not finished at the time of writing this) If anyone doubts my love of The Nightmare Before Christmas... well, they can see how much I love that movie! So, as you can see, I've been a busy bus...

What Have I Been Up To?

 I haven't updated this blog lately, sorry. If you have been around my facebook page, you might have caught a few updates. Shock and Barrel are up on the website. Shock has even been tested, so that is awesome! Adult MacCready has made his appearance on the page! Also, TheNightMotherWrites made a set throw pillows from my Fallout 4 Factions cross stich patterns, which is AMAZING! I've also been plugging away at my scrap quilt. I'm a bit more than half way there (~60/91 scrap block and ~70/91 solid blocks). Of course, I have decided to make a few jelly roll lap quilts once I am done with that... or maybe while I'm working on that because... why not? I'm also thinking about trying the shop function on Ko-Fi to list a pattern (made in EQ, not QA) or two for sale. This is just a trial... I'm not sure how well it will work and I am just in the planning stages at this point. It is something I have wanted to do for ages with my weebly site, but I would have to bump u...

Second Update on My Crazy Quilt

Image
Here are the next 15 blocks for my crazy quilt. I also made a decision to space them out with some solid blocks when I have enough fabric to do so. I am still on the fence if I should do sashing or not. I'm kinda proud at how some of these have a lot of little bits in them, which isn't something I've done before. I love the idea of using my scraps to make something new! I've also noticed a lack of blue in my stash for some reason.  

Details of the First 10 Blocks

 No much to say... just showing off the first ten blocks. I think my love of Halloween fabrics is showing through....
