Improvisationally pieced quilt with the word FREEDOM repeated in 7 rows; each letter is its own block. All the letters are in a solid navy on a solid red background. The sashing is the same solid red with white cornerstones and the quilt is bound in white.

Decided to take up crochet for a bit of fun, maybe quicker creative dive/faster than normal stuff. This was my 1st attempt. Very encouraged. Wore it yesterday for my BLUE when out and about. A big thank you to the YouTube crocheters that made it possible. Learning circles today. #textiles #crochet

Finished this modern minimalist quilt top today, # 10 in a new series. I like to imagine hoards of little liberal blues marching right up and over the evil felon rapist lying dark hump of our new president/administration. #politicalquilt #artquilt #quiltsky #modernquilt

I always forget how much time is involved in the piecing and cutting and ironing….before you get to play with the threads. One of my minis is close to being ready for thread painting. Feels so good to be playing with color. Took my mind off of judicial disappointments today. #art #quiltsky
