Day 50 of 2025

I have an idea for a new quilt. 

I made a test block to try it out. 

It came out to the correct size- always a good sign. 

I plan to use scraps and stash fabrics so each block will be an adventure. 

It will be fun to see how this develops.

 

Day 49 of 2025

After I made the Valentine coasters for Fireball, 

I planned to give him a few Jack-o-Lantern coasters for Halloween. 

I did a very nice fabric pull and got the first face completed 

but the finished coaster never happened and the other faces didn't either. 

Today the one and only coaster made it to the finish line 

and sits on our coffee table.

 

Day 48 of 2025

I have declared in the last couple days that I am not leaving my house 

for anything for the next week due to the ridiculous temperatures. 

I changed my tune tonight when I fell victim to a pizza craving. 

I put on more layers of clothing and headed out. 

It turned out well, 

but now I really am staying in the house until Sunday.

 

Day 47 of 2025

I finished making the two pillowcases today 

from the panels that were included in the 2023 and 2024 

Stitch Supply Co advent calendar boxes. 

You could say I am very late in getting these made up, 

but what if I am just very early? 

 

Day 46 of 2025

Small town + empty storefront = canvas for artist's winter scene.

 

Day 45 of 2025

I know it's not a very pretty picture, 

but these parmesan potatoes were amazing. 

There are plenty left over for the weekend and next week lunches.

 

Day 44 of 2025

Hello, happy place.
