I quilt & design quilt patterns. Chocolate, cooking, traveling are also squeezed in around the edges. And I'm on edge a lot these days. https://opquilt.com/linkinbio/

Well I was checking the score tonight all during our Evening Stake Conference Session, and got home to hear the cheers from the neighbors on tonight’s win.

I had a fun trip to Mood Fabrics in Los Angeles this week. What a great place for fabric! #moodfabrics #sewsky

Our neighbors did a great Halloween display. And since we’ve been having nice weather with windows open, you could hear the cheers when the Dodgers won Game 6 of the World Series. #worldseries2025

Us, too. But my husband is thrilled that we get to keep the Costco-sized box of Rice Krispie treats!

Yes, I’m fascinated with the Royals, but I totally agree!

Mrs. Betty Bowers @mrsbettybowers.bsky.social · 2d

OK, regardless of source, credit where due: That's a great headline.

Elizabeth Eastmond @opquilt.bsky.social · 4d

Yes—so many pretty quilts at that show.

Elizabeth Eastmond @opquilt.bsky.social · 4d

Such a beautiful quilt!

This Spanish quilter outdid herself in tiny lines of quilting on the figure on the quilt, creating movement and texture. #carrefourquiltshow #quiltsky

Another quilt from the #carrefourquiltshow from this past September, held in Saint-Marie-aux-Mines, in the Alsace region. This is by Miranda Renard, and is titled Threading New Directions. #quiltsky

In September, I had a chance to attend the Carrefour Quilt Show in Alsace, France and saw a lot of stunning quilts. This one is from their main contest: Avant Garde. See ALT for more info. #carrefourquiltshow #quiltsky

Humanizing AI, by Sandrine Ostermann, is a quilt showing the head of person, stylized in bold blues and brilliant oranges. The quilting mimic a circuit board and the whole quilt speaks to the title.

Thanks for refuting that 150 years lie of his. The tent they used to put up for State Dinners was certainly not ideal, but they put up with it because, really, how many times a year did they need that kind of space?

I’m making a new one next week, too. Good to know the rough estimate of their life span.👍🏻
