This quilt was made by my grandfather's grandmother. It's probably around 100 years old, give or take 25 years. Sadly I don't know when she made it or which grandmother it was, but I'm happy I've finally found a place to display it.
Due to its age, it's very worn and some parts are delicate, which is why it's not on a bed. I didn't have a place for it in my old apartment, but now I'm happy for it to brighten a wall of my craft room.

Out sick and away from the computer helped my #crocheting this week ....

Another #crochet #wip is now completed. A #gingham style #throw using the #granite #stitch and carrying the three #colors of #yarn along.

Super easy stitch although this pattern does, slightly, show the yarn being carried. This is a great pattern to work on when binge watching TV.

I might add another row or two on the border. 🤔

Howdy #fiberarts and #crafting folks. I have a question about repairing a knitted item. I bought this knitted long cardigan a long time ago and after time, the collar is separating from the body of the garment because it used to hang up on the hook of a coat rack. What is the best way for me--a basic hand sewer who does not have access to my yarn stash or my knitting tools--to fix this?

Friends, I must request your advice on a very important matter.

I just acquired this beautiful cabinet to display all my minis, foremost among them the majestic and terrifying Tiamat. Unfortunately the display case is currently unbalanced with her awesome power, potentially causing a collapse of the entire multiverse. What other other being should sit across from her to fill out the other door and once again bring stability to this realm?

I have taken up weaving, something I thought I would forever leave to others. I’m collecting all of the craft techniques and weaving just wasn’t my style. To slow, to methodical.

Band weaving, yes! Small scale tapestry, maybe. But like, real big loom action? Nah. But I just finished my first self drafted half fill costume fabric and I’m hooked.

Yes, there’s a mistake in the middle. But I’m going to be making it into a bodice, where the mistake will disappear into the garment piecing. Yes the process was long and slow, but shuttling on a good day is better than deep breathing meditation. I’ve never been so satisfied with the state of things.

I guess I’m a weaver too now. So I am become a creator of fabrics.

Can't believe I didn't post this. The other day I went back to Joann and they were only selling fabric by the bolt. I got everything in this pic plus a few bolts you can't see, and velcro, and ribbon, for about $35.

I'm working on redoing my husband's wedding expo photography booth, so this came in handy! I'll miss Joann but I'm super excited about these deals.

Still super stoked about my $125 Cricut Maker bundle too.
