Good-bye 2024 and Hello 2026 from Nestlings By Robin

That is Not a typo:)

It has been a rough year on so many levels for many people and I don't know about you, but my calm, the balm for my soul is stitching. The slow and steady pull of the thread through fabric calms me in ways I can't fully describe. There is a form of meditation in this glorious art form that I am thankful to have in my life and hope I can entice others to feel as well.

I have been absent a bit now, I know. For those following along, we moved from ...

DEMOCRACY MATTERS; THREAD, WHITE, AND BLUE from Q-BITS

After working a month on my previous crazy quilt, I was ready for something uncomplicated.

Guess I can't leave well enough alone! I was going to use just the simple background block for the whole quilt, but then decided that it needed a star in support of democracy. It got more complicated after that to keep the zig-zag pattern going. I ended up making 84 of the 3" striped blocks before I got it right -- always a learning process even on a simple quilt.

A fun Christmas from Elsie Quilts

Our Christmas included giving this quilt and an apron to our son's fiancee. She kind of expected the quilt but hadn't seen it, but didn't expect the apron. What fun to watch her face...

She wanted lots of flowers, white with pastels. While it was a challenge to find flowers in November, a local shop had this panel with a few fat quarters to match in a kit -- only one left. Fun to make for a charming and fun-loving young woman who is also smart and keeps surprising us. How delightful to surprise her!
