Project 20

Pattern: #WeaverStreetQuilt by @thesmittenchicken
Fabrics: “Enshadow,” Designer Solids, and Deco Stitch blenders, all @artgalleryfabrics
Quilting: “Along Came A Spider” on light density, thread no. 532

My obsession with AGF grows with every line, but specifically this Halloween line! There’s still time to make this quilt before Halloween comes around; I made this top in one day at our employee retreat 🤭

Now hanging at @olivejuicequilts, kits available!

Project 19

Pattern: #Glimmer by @cluckclucksew
Fabric: “Christmas Cheer” batiks by Robert Kaufman
Quilting: Feliz Navidad, light density, thread no. 402

A Christmas shop sample! I put a luxe cuddle backing on this one for an extra cozy winter quilt. It’s the first of my quilts that I used that backing on, but certainly not the last. It’s so smooth and soft 🤤🤤

This sample is now hanging at @olivejuicequilts and there will be kits soon!!

Project 18

Pattern: #LochstepSocks by @things.beth.makes
Yarn: Archives and a ‘24 Mr. Stitch on Snowflake Sock by @thefrostedstitch

I beat my Second Sock Syndrome FINALLY and finished these (April) socks. Fingering weight for lightness, colorwork for added warmth, these are just as perfect for fall as they were for spring 😅

George Russell had quite a day today, so why not hit the T-pose in my Mercedes shirt?!

What started as my project tor the planes and trains of Japan is finished with plenty of time to spare before COTA in a month 🥰

My McLaren tank hasn’t even been started, so I have my doubts on that being ready…

If you make it to the end, you’ll see that my dad makes almost the same face as my boyfriend does when I’m trying to sneak photos.

But don’t be fooled, we had a blast 🥰🚂

Me: “Wow, these trains are huge.”
Dad: “Now imagine it was the last thing you ever saw.”

In case anyone was wondering where I get my sense of humor, the apple barely fell off that tree.

With my next adventure just 18 days away, I realized I never edited my photos from the last one. Here’s the portraits of the train adventure with dad, landscapes are on deck for tomorrow.

When a knit is really fun, you make sure to do it twice. Maybe even three times. That’s me with these cables… doing them three times because I accidentally did them wrong a couple times 😅

BUT I LEARNED HOW TO FIX CABLES and it was so worth it for these beauties. The Hero cable, the side braids, THE SEED STITCH?! This cowl is filled with fun textures and engaging charts. I can’t wait for my official buttons to get here so I can wear the crap out of this cowl in the fall 🥰

Always a pleasure testing for Beth; keep an eye out for this pattern in a couple weeks to class up your fall wardrobe 🍂🍁

My love for texture 🤝🏻 Claire’s design plans

Happy Release Day to one of my new favorite sweaters!! The shine of the yarn and the squish of this fabric, I cannot get enough. I’ve had this Christa Grunge in my stash for a while and I think it really makes this sweater extra amazing 🥰

Thanks boyfriend for pictures; maybe I’ll learn what to do with my hands by the next round 😅

Project 14:

Pattern: Jelly Vinyl Tote by @kfquiltdesigns
Holographic Vinyl, Renaissance Webbing, Bella Solids accent fabric

Two posts in one day? Yea dudes, there are no rules.

Kaylyn designed this super fun vinyl tote and is teaching a class at @olivejuicequilts for it this Saturday! Mine immediately got filled with yarn, because every bag is a project bag if you want it to be 🥰🥰

We have so many fun vinyls and webbings to choose from, so you should probably make one or three for yourself. Is my next one going to be purple and orange? PROBABLY!

Finished my second skein today and I’ll be switching gears to the collar and sleeves before I finish the body. I always end up needing to add length, so I’m going to try doing the body last to prevent any games of yarn chicken.
