“Steady progress. That was the Ictha way. Any task could be overcome by steady, unrelenting progress.” Mark Lawrence, The Girl and the Mountain

We are doing a bit of catching up today, after a lovely week off! 📖💜 So here is a closer look at the longarm quilting of the Greek Cross quilt. This is a very small version of the paisley quilting design. It takes a bit of work, but it looks wonderfully intricate in the end.

Today’s @owlcrate @OCthenest @words.and.whimsy Nest’s Kitchen photo challenge is One Bite At A Time (Share A Slow Moving Plot). In a story of survival, one step at a time is the only way to get through. 📖

We make custom quilts! Check out what we can make in our Etsy shop at VictoriaGDesigns or www.victoriagleasuredesigns.com 💜

Quilt!

   My daughter picked out fabric and started a quilt about two years ago. We worked together, and she got half the top pieced, then the project was sidelined. Over time we’d pick it up, do a little bit, and then put it away again. I didn’t want there to be so much pressure to finish that she ended up hating doing it! Last weekend, inspired by the new year, we got it out again and completed piecing the top. Ta-da!

Simple, colorful, just enough challenge for a beginner. She’s going to back it with fleece fabric instead of cotton fabric+ quilt batting. We used fleece on the baby quilts; it so comfortable and a nice, medium weight. I’m glad she made it this far with the project, and I bet she’ll be really happy about sleeping under it. In a house that gets this cold at night, quilts are a necessity.

This is my first post and I am new to quilting. I hope that you return to see me get back to sewing.🥳

So this is not really foster care related but then again it is. Through the highs and lows of the past three years in the world of fc, I have had some pretty low lows. I felt like I lost the old version of myself and, without really recognizing as it was happening, a new version of myself emerged/is emerging. One whose eyes are forever opened to the impact of trauma. One who gives less importance to how the world views her and is okay with what survival mode looks like. And one who is still firguring herself out - yes, at the age of 42.

Twelve years or so ago, I was kind of in a rough patch, too. Single, living states away from family, and questioning a lot of my life, I found an outlet in quilting. The beautiful fabrics and rich designs inspired me and kept me thinking forward. After moving home, getting married, and eventually adopting my daughter, I found my quilting world packed away and my emotional state once again in disarray. Until recently.

I am not one to make New Year’s resolutions but this year I have set a goal for myself in an effort at better self-care: finish one sewing project and read one book every month. This might seem like a weekend project for many people, but for me it is an achievable goal that I am eager to see through. I am already feeling the old surge of excitement and hopefulness starting to reappear in my mind.

Today I finished a quilt that I started three years ago, right before our now daughter came home. It is made from a Moda fabric charm pack and some yardage I can’t even place because I bought it so long ago! I also finished this book my husband gave me for my birthday last year, “The Giver of Stars”. Month one - check!

So my mom got some fabric from an older woman

and I was helping her go through it. We open this box of notions mom pulls out this atrocious gold ribbon. Apparently the woman agreed with me, because written on the cardboard spool are the words "use only in a pinch. ugly!" AND I LOST MY MIND. LIKE BELINDA WTF.

Here's the photos.

My favorite memory of this quilt will always be my mom pointing to each of the fabric patterns and telling me whose outfit it was from.

Toe beans in sunbeams

Summer napping season - not really all that different from winter napping season, but the sunlight is at a different angle.

   The triangle quilt, by the way, was the hardest, most time-consuming quilt I ever made. Way too many little triangles.
