Bug Quilt work in progress pic

work in progress on this bug quilt - I love the color green against this fabric! I'm hand stitching a little bit each day; but I'm enjoying the process. after this I'll be working on an owl quilt for a client, super excited to show pics of that soon!

... Read moreQuilt-making is a rewarding and creative process that allows enthusiasts to express their unique style through fabric. In addition to the current bug quilt project, many quilters enjoy incorporating different themes, like nature and animals, into their work. The use of rich color palettes, such as greens, can evoke feelings of tranquility and vibrancy, making quilts not just functional but also artistic pieces. Hand stitching requires patience and skill, as it allows for intricate designs and personal touches to develop over time. If you're interested in starting your own quilting journey, consider exploring various quilt patterns online and start small with unique fabric pieces. Participating in quilting forums and communities can also provide you with advice, project inspiration, and support from fellow quilters. Don't forget to showcase your finished quilts on platforms like Lemon8 to share your creativity with others!

This rag quilt book sleeve is so so easy to sew! And it’s especially nice if you’ve been wanting to make a rag quilt but don’t want to commit to a big blanket. If you’re a beginner sewer or quilter I would recommend this easy project! . . . #fabric #sew #sewingtiktok #sewing #quilt

Working in a little checkerboard quilt for my friend as a surprise! 🐣🍼 She just had a baby and she doesn’t follow me here so it’s safe to post without spoiling the surprise. 😝 I’m making up the sizing. I think it’s going to be smaller than a crib. About 6 5inch squares across and 8 down. Cut 5 1/2
