This month we’re taking a trip through the 4 seasons and this week’s theme is “autumn”. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ I have some hearty orange flowers in my garden that bloom the brightest in autumn. They even withstand the first snowfall we get in October.

I’ve owned this sewing machine for I dunno... 12 I’ve owned this sewing machine for I dunno... 12 years or so... and I just randomly discovered that it has this little doohickey that you can attach behind the whatchamacallit to use as a guide so you can quilt evenly spaced lines. 🤯 Game changer! ⁣Feel free to correct my technical lingo in the comments. 😅 #tsuroquilt #pfaffsewingmachine #quiltfabric #konasolids #quiltbasting #modernpatchwork #quiltpattern #quiltpatterndesigner #modernquilting #tsuro

I worked on the final seams of my Tsuro quilt top I worked on the final seams of my Tsuro quilt top yesterday while watching the exciting news coming out of the US. The name of this quilt is based on the board game of the same name which is taken from the Japanese word tsūro (通路) meaning "route". I thought it was quite apropos considering the new direction that our neighbours to the south have chosen. Congratulations on a historic outcome! ⁣ #tsuroquilt #quiltfabric #konasolids #quilttop #modernpatchwork #quiltpattern #quiltpatterndesigner #modernquilting #tsuro
