[Former?] quilt shop girl in Portland, OR. I love quilts, my neighborhood, the pups that keep me out walking, and a nice glass of wine.

It was fun to meet up with a couple of bee mates today. Robin, Linda, and I are members of the Bliss circle of Do Good Stitches.

Our group did not make either of the quilts shown here, but Robin participated in the quilt on the left as a member of the DC MQG. The quilt on the right was made by the Inland Northwest MQG, and was inspired by a quilt made by our DGS group. I was thrilled when the Inland Northwest guild approached me to ask about using my tutorial for their community outreach quilt.

Placed a small order with @spoonflower recently, primarily to get more of my custom quilt labels in a more manageable size. Decided to make the shipping worthwhile by adding a test from another print I designed, and then 2 other cute prints I couldn't resist. Artists: @sandrahutterdesigns and @kostolom3000.

I still have several quilt labels left from my previous order, but they are just slightly bigger than I find ideal for the quilts I've been making recently (scroll for scale difference).

Folks we are so excited to share with you the first round of combatants into the next conclave. These adorable little warriors will fight to win your hearts in a battle of cuteness.

1/2. Meet Lindy submitted by Mitch! As you can see, Lindy is a lil' goober and we wish her well in the 'clave!
3. Next is Griffin submitted by patron of the pod, Kai! We asked for little hats on your pets, and by god, Kai has delivered. Thank you so much for blessing us with this photo. Good luck in the 'clave!
4. This is Atlas submitted by Linda! Atlas is a good ghost boy competing from the spirit realm <3 just because he no longer has a corporeal form doesn't mean his fight is over. Good luck Atlas!
5/6/7. Next we have 3 pets submitted by Payton! First is Lila, second is Leo, and third is Stella, who is also competing from the spirit realm! Good luck to all pups, corporeal and non-corporeal alike!

This photo of my one and only rainbow quilt hanging in the @portlandmqg special exhibit at the 2019 Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show popped up on my phone today. Looking so forward to IRL quilt shows.

When given the now familiar to me name of Taliesin Myrddin Namkai-Meche for the SJSA Remembrance Project, I was both set at ease and felt an odd weight of responsibility. In a project designed to highlight and raise up individuals who have lost their lives unjustly due to racially motivated violence, I figure a middle-class, white male (whose killer was quickly apprehended and granted a trial) is an anomaly. That said, Taliesin gave his life standing up, with two others, to shield 2 young women of color who were being verbally assaulted with racist and Islamophobic slurs while riding public transit in Portland, Oregon. *continued in comments* #sew4justice
