1/3 I discovered today the Stolen Neighbour #Quilt from #Minnesota. #CraftivistSolidarity at it's best but heartbreaking. A community art project of the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee. It gives you a feeling of dry statistics. Each square stands for one person detained by the ICE since January (only!): 11,000 squares! 11,000 stolen persons. video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/kFmbaxZ_GOE WCCO/Msn article https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/minnesota-immigrant-rights-action-committee-unveil-massive-11000-patch-quilt-made-in-protest-against-ice/ar-AA2cPdMs #activism #protest #solidarity #community #craftivism #quilting

glob forbid a little Black girl like me be inspired by the African American women who were hired for their #quilting abilities ―i always forget the #patchwork #quilt artists― because their skills were instrumental with the embroiderers in developing the walls of the spacecraft and the space suits in such a way, when the astronauts were inside, it all connected and worked like a supercomputer. but no, we couldn't teach that part of #NASA history in our schools… 🧵…

It's August and that means the 4th Annual Finish-Or-Frog-Along is almost here (FKA #FallFinishalong)! For those who don't know - it's a craftalong open to crafters of any type or stripe who have WIPs they want to get over the finish line or WIPs they know will never get there. FoFA runs with active leadership in September, and carries on into October for anyone keeping the energy going. Stay tuned and follow #FinishOrFrogAlong. I'll post more details in the coming days / weeks. Super excited!

I just fit the Grinch quilted coat and it wraps around me twice! I cut it so ridiculously big because I was afraid it would end up too small and I just screwed myself the opposite way I guess I’m going to recut it, but that also means I have to recut the lining and this whole project is 😭 #Quilting

Bought the pattern on the left because I've really been wanting to do a corvid quilt. But somehow it morphed into the quilt design on the right. I don't know when or if I'll make either now, but it felt good to design something in the middle of #AllSummerLongArm Funny Crows is available here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1727887093 The other crows are based on Sew Fresh Quilts' Black Birds, (though I graphed the skulls myself): https://sewfreshquilts.com/product/black-birds-pdf-quilt-pattern-instant-download/ #Quilting
