156 squares on the design wall, 83 more done, that won't fit. I need a bigger sewing room. 😆

EPP rosette.
Millefiori La Tarantella. Rosette number 1. I got book 3 for my birthday. I think this quilt will be ongoing for the rest on my life... #quilting #skyquilt #quiktsky #EPP
#quiktsky some pieces I made for my mom over the years that have made their way back to me due to her illness and relocation to a much smaller home.
#quiktsky Has anyone enrolled in Natalia Bonner’s Piece n Quilt academy for longarm quilting and if so, what is your opinion of it? I have taken a class with Angela Walters that was beneficial/helpful/educational. It appears to me that Natalia has a slightly different bent to her approach?
Red and white snowflake table topper.
I actually finished another project! #quiktsky #skyquilt #quilting
From charms to flimsy and now I need to add the face and get it on the frame.

#quiktsky More progress on our Mr Bones Halloween quilt. I’m especially proud of my husband who endured the crucible of the spider. So many teeny pieces. I did the owls. We know the spiders aren’t identical but, I think he did great given that this is his second day of quilting 😍.
#quiktsky Whether you are a high profile, wildly talented, professional artist with a big following and sales galore or you’re a hobbyist who makes for pleasure alone, this is a great reminder about the medicine that is the creative process. Enjoy!

#quiktsky this is the FMQ practice piece I made out of the 100% fake cotton jelly roll I bought on Amazon (I did a burn test if you recall). I couldn’t see where I was going most of the time. The white side is the wrong side. I didn’t care about the seaming of the back, intended for the trash.
#quiktsky Scrappy cat from seahorse leftovers. I might put another border around it for contrast. Waste not, want not!😻
Quilted tote bag featuring hippos and tropical birds amidst a turquoise background with fish
Working on a quilted tote bag, which definitely doesn’t have anything to do with the fact that the cashiers at Trader Joe’s think I make cool bags. 😏 #quiktsky #sewsky #sewing
Learn how to use diamond shapes in quilting. #diamonds #quilting #quilts #menwhosew #sewing #quiktsky youtu.be/ABwjA_LQ68A?...
Finished my sort of Halloween cat where I prominently feature my sorely lacking FMQ skill deficit 🎃 #quiktsky
Large quilt with white diamond shapes filled with blue and green triangles
Hi! My name is Melinda. I am a quilt patter designer and educator. I can’t wait to connect with you and see what you’re quilting! Here’s a quilt I made for my son. #quiktsky #quilts #paperpiecing #quiltteacher
A paper template along the rubber stamp pad it was transferred to. Letters are the reversed image of the text “oh sew Ritzie”. In the top right is an exact knife and two carving tools for rubber stamps.
Channeling my anxious energy over the next four years into more creations! Briefly pausing the camp coat to make a block printing stamp to label all my creations! #quiktsky #blockprinting #handmade
That’s a cool tool! I do some fiber art and often use my Baby Lock Embellisher which is a felting machine. It has a 12 needle punch on it, no thread or bobbin though you can use spooled fibers as it punches. Here are a few pieces I used it on. #fiberart #artquilt #quiktsky
Huge star quilt I made to cover a ceiling--21 feet square. Got help from a sail maker to square up and stitch on the borders. Friends helped to tie layers and install. #quiktsky #quilt #textileart
Approximately 3' by 4' lap quilt top made with pink and purple batik fabrics using a diminishing 9 patch block design.
Yesterday's lap quilt top creation. The picture doesn't capture the colors, but I'm pleased with the end result given this was a daylong distraction effort - and I ran out of fabric for the solid squares, so I had to improvise with those corner triangles. #QuiktSky
