I made this

By in Art!, crochet

When I went to Montreal with my sister a couple summers ago, we went to see an art installation by Yoko Ono about her life with John Lennon. It was incredible and had me near tears several times; what an amazing person she is. John, of course, was so great on all levels. I’d picked […]

Back lit

By in crochet, love

I finally put together the top for my yellow log cabin quilt. Yes, I’m loving it. I’ll need to order fabric for the back and then I’ll need to decide if I will quilt it myself or not. It is pretty big, 2m square, so I’ll most likely go with long arm. I like how […]

By in crochet, making stuff is good

Modern Quilt Guild

By in Uncategorized

The last  meeting I went to we were supposed to get a new project using Jay McCarroll’s fabric, which I LOVE, but couldn’t because of the fucking Canada Post strike so we opted to make placemats for Meals on Wheels. Fun, easy, quick. Well. I started making a dresden plate block but man, that’s not […]

A riddle

By in hmmmm, love

How many skull rings does it take to sink a hand? Three. The answer is three. And are you crazy? I don’t wear all three on the same hand OR at the same time. That would be ridiculous. The gold one is a Disney Couture ring, from the Pirates of the Caribbean collection. The giant […]
