A1 I have been sewing on a train this week. A bit prickly for the fingers!! I’m now hand quilting my #MiniQuilt #HandSewing at my Aunt Janet’s house.

Da werde ich mich noch einmal an so einem wonky Sternchen versuchen.
a set for the Blossom moon of April :)

Wenn man die Flicken einfach so drauflos zusammennäht und die Stoffe sehr fein, weich und elastisch sind, wird's halt ein bisschen wonky.
The piecing is finished! This round the world quilt now needs backed and I have to choose a quilting pattern which I will continue to work by hand. This is a very satisfying project so far. Two pictures because the pattern stands out better from a distance. The penny is there for scale. #quilting #HandSewing @quilting #No52 #MiniQuilt
Piecing and pressing: the mini quilt is coming along! The finished squares are 1cm so it’s quite small! #MiniQuilt #HandSewing #quilting #No52 @quilting
I'm new here. Here's my #introduction.
My name is Mim; I live in a tiny apartment in a tiny village amongst the fields and farms of rural #Nebraska.
I love sewing, drawing, playing the piano, baking, and crafting. I'm doing the #OdinProject with my daughter to refresh and relearn web development, the newest challenge in my life.
I believe in #manners, #creativity, #honesty, #positivity, #humor, #kindness, and #imagination.
I look forward to meeting you!

Just for completeness - got the last seam done today and tied off a couple other loose ends I found. Very nice to have this canopy case back in good working order!
the cartridge pleated skirt is almost done, only requires a patch on a small tear I couldn't cut around, but I need some sewing thread in a different colour from what I already have.
the bodice is done, I've worn it today, it's good (other than a small change I want to make to the pattern for the next time).
When I'll have some time with no rain at a time when I can take pictures I will, and then there will be a blog post.
So, now, I suddenly found myself with no #handsewing project in progress¹, and that can't do!
¹ ok, there is one. I don't want to pick that one up right now
H is for... #HandSewing
Cut up a couple old raggedy tshirts to make zokin (and a few more little projects, too...)
#makeShitMonday, #mending edition!
Our local caving grotto has a large canopy structure that we use for group camping events - as is common with shared equipment, it tends to be roughly handled, and the soft case that holds the poles and canvas for transport has come apart at the top seam.
It's pretty sturdy fabric, and well-constructed - the corner is joined by one seam, and there's a separate seam holding down some thin rubber tape that keeps the seam allowance from fraying. Fortunately that means the failure is the thread holding the pieces together, not the fabric itself...
It's a bit tedious to fix, since I'm trying to use existing holes rather than introduce new points of weakness. And I'm doing each seam as two lines of alternate running stitches, so if the threads break on one line, the other will hopefully hold it together enough for me to fix it more easily next time.
I got through both lines of the joining seam and one line of the edge-tape seam before I ran out of time (and patience) today. Should go a lot quicker tomorrow since the edges and tape are already lined up, so it'll just be a simple running stitch!
Did a bit of #VisibleMending on smallest daughter’s current favourite sweatpants. The bunnies are cute and always fun to use the #embroidery skills on something practical as well as appealing. #RepairReuseRecycle #Stitchcraft #HandSewing
