🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You’re not wrong!

This is such a joyful dress and you look beautiful in it! I hope your evening was wonderful!

That is the feedback I’m getting. 😃

Congratulations!!!! I’m excited for you! It’s a pursuit that you can grow with because there are so many modalities. I know people who are so afraid of making mistakes (which have been my best teachers) that they never try anything new. A sincere interest and desire to learn go a long way.

Thank you!

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 1d

Me too! I think I bought it in every colorway.

Thanks Lexi! I struggle shooting with one hand and flipping the quilt around with the other 😃.

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 1d

This is extraordinary! 😍

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 1d

Gasp! Noooo! You can use it!!

I loathe those sites. What I don’t understand is that I have blocked and muted that clone site three times. How does it become unblocked and unmuted?

We all start somewhere, and most of us start at the beginning. Trying something new is brave in a culture where people can be shamed so quickly for earnest efforts. I’ve been here for a good while now and find it to be a positive, constructive space. Feel welcome to share your journey 😃.

I second that emotion!

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 1d

You are an ambitious woman! Wow!

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 1d

I think it’s phenomenal! It’s also a great use of color! I have that deep purple batik…I love finding fabrics I have in people’s quilts 😃.

#quiltsky Here are a few stills. It was fresh out of the box!

#quiltsky #longarm Sugar Maple Quilting owned by Angela Kim longarmed our Halloween quilt (pattern by Elizabeth Hartman) and I love it so much. It was a great experience, start to finish. She’s a wonderful person.

Getting points lined up is the struggle that never ends for me! You’re doing GREAT!

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 2d

Your blocks look fantastic!!!

#quiltsky #longarm Just popping in to say I did enroll in Natalia Bonner’s Piece n Quilt academy and am learning a lot already. I find her to be a generous instructor who doesn’t gatekeep. I’m glad I enrolled; I know that mastering control over your machine is foundational and that takes discipline.

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 4d

These are soooo beautiful! I admire your use of color and how lifelike you’ve made them. I made an effort at a heron myself, but it’s much more abstract than yours.

#quiktsky some pieces I made for my mom over the years that have made their way back to me due to her illness and relocation to a much smaller home.

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 6d

Interesting! You’ve given me so many new approaches to try. My kitchen stays chilly and arid (66-68 at night and granite countertops which stay cold) so maybe I’ll try leaving a shaped loaf on the counter for the most part and see what happens. So many paths to a single point.

Dandylion @dandylion867.bsky.social · 7d

Thank you so much for sharing your insights. I watch her videos on YT and do find them inspiring. I think I’ll sign up.

#quiktsky Has anyone enrolled in Natalia Bonner’s Piece n Quilt academy for longarm quilting and if so, what is your opinion of it? I have taken a class with Angela Walters that was beneficial/helpful/educational. It appears to me that Natalia has a slightly different bent to her approach?
