“The trouble is that we have a bad habit of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain.” Ursula Le Guin Hand sewn and hand quilted - 5000 pieces!!!!!! Wow 😮 🤯😳😮🤯🙀 Gorgeous wool Sue Spargo Block of the Month made by Kathleen Miller Roads to California Meeting this Thursday! Do you know about Humble Bundle? They offer ebooks at a good price to raise money for charity. Heads up! If you are at Roads to California this weekend, check out this fabulous modern quilt made by the wonderful Jason. It’s a stunner! I love this fabric from Libs Elliot. I’m making very traditional snowball blocks with a very modern print. This was for the two color OCMQG challenge ages ago but now I’m gonna to try and finish it. #modernquilting #libselliottfabric Always seeing what the thrift has. No power cord which was a bummer! https://www.instagram.com/p/DTrX6Qdka1L/ Finished up my block for the “Tag You’re It” kits. Having a scheduled sew time is very helpful. Join us next week! The squad We are a philanthropy quilt kit making machine. I might do a little puttering in the sewing room tonight. Love a little puttering about. Thank you Zoom sewcial. Sewing surface is now clear of all the holiday clutter and various odds and ends that was impeding me. I also hung those pictures on the wall after like two years of procrastination. Ready for tonight’s zoom sew! I’m cleaning up my work space tonight for the inaugural sew session and giving my machine a nice dusting and oiling. Saw this at https://www.tumblr.com/2026-fiber-arts-bingo/804563598409170944/i-dont-like-specific-lists-of-things-to and may join up! Onwards and upwards! Big mood So a kindly person texted and said would you like a box of thread and notions for your philanthropy projects? I said yes and thank you. Check out the surprise left on my porch. Oodles od supplies for our upcoming quilt kit making extravaganza in Janaury. 😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰🎁🎁🎁 extra blessed by this kindness I miss you Joanne’s! I got this fleece when the Laguna Niguel location closed. I’ll miss you Christmas dinosaur fleece but I know my nephew will enjoy you the most. Happy Monday everyone 🥰 I’m so mad I didnt get this in three. What was I 🤔? Fudge the fabric sale Francine? As if! Sorry Subway but your 25% promo will never beat a fabric sale in my book. (I keep seeing this Subway commercial and I do laugh each time.) What a story! So many ribbons As a follow up to the last post, i belive it is sheep and not a minecraft ghost robot but YMMV. Neat! Website at https://www.folkschool.org/ The universe wants me to rescue quilts from the thrift store…. Or else it wouldn’t keep puttong then in my path for $3.49. 😂 A mighty sheep! Ok I have to confess there has been little to no quilt making this December. But I did make some cookies for the neighbors and that was really fun. I have a goal for 2026 - aiming for 6 quilts. Ambitious but hopefully I can end up with 4 at least. All the way from Indio, this quilt was started by Cheryl’s aunt and finished here by the OCMQG.
