It's been quite a while since the last time I pulled scraps for a new quilt project. I'm loving these colors, and curious if they will work out like I'm hoping. Time to play!!

Finished my for my daughter's new apartment! Love how it looks in this charcoal color. Now I need to get some navy yarn to start one for my son's apartment🤪 This pattern is such a perfect size and weight for snuggling on the couch. Although maybe not in this absurd Texas heat. . . .

Pattern by Julie Bonner | Tunisian & Classic Crochet 💕 yarn from Premier Yarns

Progress on my quilt. It's been lovely spending the past couple of days playing in my studio. Since March, I have been working nonstop on my alternative teaching certification. Last week I took my content area exam. Yesterday I found out I passed AND finished my online coursework. I'm going to enjoy these next couple of weeks, even though I need to be planning my classes for August. . .

Lots of fun with crochet lately! My mom's bobble heart blanket is getting too big to photograph. I think I'll do five more rows of hearts, and then maybe a scalloped border.

My daughter's sage gingham blanket is coming along. Love the c2c blocks, hate weaving in all the ends!! Pattern from

And I started a new project. (Are you surprised? Yeah, me neither). This is my second , pattern by . This one's for my oldest daughter's first apartment!! This pattern is crazy fun to stitch. Which is good, because my son wants one also 😂

1,024 half-square triangles in this . That's overwhelming. I finally sat down and started tackling this project in a sustainable manner. Batch cutting the sewn squares. Using a ruler the same size as the finished triangle and a rotating cutting mat. Limiting pressing and trimming to 16 triangles at a time. And suddenly, quilting is fun again. I've missed this.

I am obsessed with this project. Corner to corner blocks in a gingham pattern. Inspired by and using her lovely tutorials.

The blanket is for my middle daughter's dorm room as she heads to college in August.

I think I bought too much yarn. Oh well. Might have to make a second one!!

Made with in sage, spruce, and snow white.

It reminds me of the wallpaper in our kitchen growing up😄

I did not intend to start a new project. . . I was learning how to make corner to corner blocks following a tutorial, because I want to make a gingham blanket like she has on her ig. But one block turned into four, and this is a great use of all the odd bits of yarn in the studio. . .

New project on the hook. Pattern is sort-of Ocean Shores from the website (but I couldn't figure out row two of the repeat, so I just mirrored the first). Working with two yarns on the hook is a challenge. It has a lovely, light, soft texture. Hope your weekend includes time for crafting!!
