Finished quilt. Ode to VA in the fall. Stash fabric, backing from an estate sale, binding left over from a previous quilt. Pyr neuron quilting in, best visible on the back.

Is it too niche to quilt a pyramidal neuron onto a quilt?

You probably already know this, but today was the first full missed pay check for most of your friends, colleagues, POs and SROs at the NIH.

Stay strong out there folks. If you need help, ask for it. As always, try to be kind.

Today we dye.

This definitely won't stay pink, I'll be lucky if it oxidizes to brown.

Many many years ago (2009?), while still in grad school, I drove to the FEST with friends from Richmond. It was an incredibly fun and joyful weekend, that frankly I wish I could re-create.
Happy FEST, Gainesville!

If you love (or just kinda like, or are curious about) punk rock, downtown is where you want to be through Sunday.

If not, enjoy the rest of our excellent community and the millions of dollars FEST brings us every year.
