Upcoming New Patterns

I am excited to show that I am combining two of my favorite things... making these quilting patterns and the video game Fallout. I decided to try to immortalize my favorite bacon husband companion by making him into a quilting block! I give you the wonderfully charismatic junkie mayor of the great town of Goodneighbor: JOHN HANCOCK!


Isn't he just precious? I have this pattern almost done... I just need to convert stuff into PDFs and combine them (for some reason the most tedious step for me).

The other one I have coming down the line is Zero from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Who wants to be the first to make this good boy?


I still need to write up the instructions for this lovely block, but I hope to get that done soon!

I hope you enjoyed my update!

-UPDATE- And Hancock is up and ready to be tested!

What Have I Been Doing?

 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.

Lots of Updates

I'll try to keep this short, but there are quite a few new things up on the site! First off, I edited the layout (at least if you are not on mobile) so that there isnt as much scrolling involved when searching for a pattern. The pictures are a little bit smaller now, but I think it easier to navigate. Second, I've put up Jacques LaLean and Ginger the Tap Dancing Spider up for the Beetlejuice cartoon blocks. They have a bit more embroidery/outlining than a lot of my other designs (particularly Ginger), but I think that is because of the way they are drawn (ie cartoon). I tried to make them without so much, and they just didn't look right. Also, I put up a Pumpkin from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I based the pattern on a restoration of an actual set piece, so it is pretty darn authentic! It is also a pretty intricate pattern, so if you want a challenge, feel free to try it. You can thank Burton's hate of straight lines for that! It is up for testing, so a

Patterning Update

Hi Everybody! Hope this week has treated you well. I am very close to finalizing the pattern for Maggot. I *hope* to post him here this weekend and get him submitted to Fandom in Stitches shortly after that. The tweaks I did to the pattern really didn't change much, but I think the revised construction order will make putting him together much easier. I haven't had much time to work on my other projects this week, which is a bit of a bummer. Sorry. Not my sewing machine... but same model I hope by the time I get home, my new old machine (White Rotary Series 77) will be up and running. My husband was supposed to fix the table while I was at work today so that I can start using it this weekend. I hope. We shall see. Some of the holes that hold the screws for a bracket that supports the weight of the machine while it is in use are stripped (it came to use that way) and needs to be repaired. It is a small fix, but it needs to be done before I can start learning how to use it
