So, erster selbstgemachter Mini-Quilt ist fertig! Nur was ich damit jetzt mache weiß ich nicht XD. #diy #sewing #selfmade #quilting #epp

Zusammengesetztes Foto mit Vorder- und Rückseite eines kleinen sechseckigen Quilts. Die Vorderseite besteht aus roten, lilanen, blauen und schwarzen Sechsecken und Rauten. Die Rückseite ist eine Fläcke aus dunkelblauem Stoff. Beide Seiten sind mit roten Ziernähten in Kreismustern verquiltet.

Hello, I made a lil zine!
Edit: And I just published it on itch: https://kikithegecko.itch.io/how-to-make-hex-maps-from-fabric

Feel free to send me a DM if you want one (or more) printed and assembled copies in exchange for shipping costs (I am located in Germany) + pay what you want.

Handwritten zine "how to make hex maps from fabric by kikithegecko" that lays on a quilted hex map made from green and blue hexes

Inside view, a spread. Left side says "ready your needle and thread". A needle with thread is drawn beneath, arrows indicating "thin" and "double knot". The right side says "put two hexes together, align one edge". In between the two lines is the drawing of two hexes, with arrows adding text "fabric sides facing" and "hold in place with clip".

Na? Wie wär's mit nem Stückchen?
Dieser französische Rhabarberkuchen ist super schnell zusammengerührt und passt perfekt in eine Tarte-Form. Zum Rezept findet ihr via Link in der Bio oder direkt so:

Zu sehen auch das fertige... Quilt-Deckchen? Untersetzer? Mini-Quilt-Ding? Eigentlich als Telleruntersetzer fürs Kind genäht (unebene Tischplatte). Nach Fertigstellung streikte die Familie allerdings, weil zu schön dafür. Jetzt.. keine Ahnung was ich damit machen soll.

Update! I was able to buy all the fabric I need for this project today and spent the whole evening quilting while I watched concert recordings of King Gizzard's current tour in Europe. #epp #quilting #battletech

Hex quilt map on a dark green piece of fabric, illuminated in warm artificial light. There's three different textures of green, an orange hex representing rough terrain, the grey forest textures from my last post, and a blue and grey marbled water hex, with more unsewed hexes of the same fabric next to them. A bunch of small clips keep the fabric on the paper in some places.

This is faster than I thought, very good. Might do the whole map after all. #battletech #epp #quilting

Seven hexagons sewed together. The middle one is grey with white leaves, two are dark grey with little trees, two are green with little white flowers, two are white with green and teal flowers

Same piece but with a blue half-painted battlemech, a green tank, and a radio tower on hex bases placed on individual fields like it was a game map

Decided on a pattern for my Grandmother's Flower Garden Quilt an started to sew a test. My plan - so far - is to use no newly produced fabric. I made the first flowers out of a rest of my 1. medieval-byzantine garb, an old jumpsuit of my kid (woodland critters), a shirt I never wore and a vintage fabric scrap. The border of the flower (or the "ways" between the flowers in the garden, there will also be "leafs" in various shades of green) consists of second hand cloth, I hope I have enough of it. I had the luck to find second hand some vintage fabric from a quilter (may the earth be light on her). I bought ~ 4 Kg fabric online really cheap and without really knowing what was in it, only because of some turquoise cotton fabric I saw on a crappy photo. I gambled a bit and was rewarded. When I opened the parcel I was so happy to find that there were several pieces of (vintage and modern) damask bedclothes included, hand died in green, olive and turquoise. Really, it's an absolute treasure box.

Edit: (Also: I feel like I am deeply in need to review my thoughts about art and crafting. When I look at other peoples things: Yes! This is art!
When I look at my things: No, you just did.. apply things you bought, used techniques you saw.

Closed silver laptop with rainbow stickers. On it: A flower out of hexagon fabric bits. The petals are made out of cloth with green leaves and blue, oriental flowers. The center is blue linnen. The partially sewed on border is turquoise damast. In the center is a bee, a needle minder with the needle and thread. Oder flowers and small boxes with hexagon parts are scattered around.

Has anyone in the #EPP ever said sorry for supporting Orbán & Fidesz for years and years as they drove #Hungary into its authoritarian hole? Even just one word of reflection on that catastrophic error the EU keeps paying for every day today?

Late night crafting. What you do on a friday evening: cutting fabric, basting your hexies, maybe place a few stitches? It's for (another - hello, #ADHD) new project. I want to make a classic grandma's flowergarden Quilt for me to sleep under when it's cold and I try to use mostly upcycled fabric for this project.
(So - if you have old clothes or cloth made from woven cotton/viscose with a nice floral pattern that you don't want anymore - I'm your person!)
This cloth I'm using here is from a beloved jumpsuit from my kid, which is too small now. Other flowers I made from a beautiful indian top I never wore. The blue center is made of linnen cut offs from my first byzantine garb I made for my #LivingHistory hobby nearly 10 years ago.

Gray background, on this is a hexagon patchwork flower with an indigo blue center piece laid out. The six "petals" are made from black cloth with a colourful floral pattern and cute, small animals (bunnies, butterfly...). Thee additional staples with basted hexagons are lying alongside. There are also sewing scissors to be seen. The handle is highly ornamented and golden. It looks like a pattern of lily of the valley.

#WaZiFuBo - in der Augenklinik-Edition. #SlowStitching zur mentalen Entspannung.

Grauer Wartezimmerfußboden. Eins sieht eine offene schwarze Tasche, daran hängt ein gelb leuchtender Luftfilter. In der Öffnung steht ein offenes Blechdöschen mit allerlei Nähezubehör und bunten Stoffhexagonen, die zusammengenäht werden.

Eigentlich wollte ich "nur eben schnell" (Ha, ha.) endlich die Einreichung für einen Upcycling-Workshop mit Patchwork (#EPP, #Slowstitching) für den #CFC24 der @haecksen schreiben und dann nahm mein Gehirn eine komisch Abzweigung und ich überlege, ob ich mich an einen Vortrag (in dem Rahmen noch nie gemacht) mit dem Arbeitstitel "I craft, so I don't kill people" heranwagen soll.
Gäbe es Interesse an sowas? Wäre über meine persönlichen Erfahrungen, Hilfsmittel/Settings/Tipps, um mit Handarbeiten Anxiety im Angesicht der Dystopie, in der wir gerade Leben, runter zu bringen.
Würde mich über euer sehr zeitnahes Feedback freuen, da Einreichungen nur heute noch möglich.

The biggest threat to Europeans is the right-wing 5th column in the pocket of Trump and Putin. They want to weaken the #EU through culture wars.

Fortunately, there are MEP's within the #EPP who are questioning cooperation with the three far-right groups. A responsible majority awaits.

Kleines Handarbeits-Set-up zur Nervenberuhigung für den spontanen Klinikbesuch gleich. Nehme gedrückte Daumen, kann gerade alles an guten Gedanken gebrauchen.

Hexagon-Patchworkblume. Darauf eine kleine Metalldose mit Nähzutaten & noch unvernähten Hexagonstücken. Im Hintergrund eine Clutch in Form einer schwarzen Boom Box. Im aufgeklappten Deckel der Dose klebt ein kleines Herz aus rosa Papier, auf dem steht "Hab dich lieb!"

Repost from last year (before I was here). This is the quilt where I want to hand appliqué hexie-butterflies and flowers I showed in previous posts:

Nothing fancy and full of mistakes - but I'm proud (sort of) of it and my non-binary child is now sleeping the first night blissfully under it's rainbow quilt.
And: One big project that really is finished! Yay! Take this ADHD!

Living Room. A Person (you only see the fingers) holds a big quilt (145 x 190 cm). The quilt consists of big squares in uni colours. The colour change follows the rainbow scheme.

Hallo Zusammen, ich bin Tanja, 51, süchtig nach Stoff und Wolle. Partner und Hund. Gerade sehr im Nähwahn. Ich habe #EPP und #quilting für mich entdeckt. Seit Oktober 24 in einem lieben Nähkurs und lerne fleißig dazu.

Bisher aktiv bei Insta und sehr angenervt dort. Ich würde mir gern wieder aussuchen, wem und was ich folge. Überlege mich dort zu löschen.

Was suche ich? Austausch mit netten Menschen rund ums Nähen und Stricken. Ideen für neue Projekte finden und eigene Werke zeigen.

First try at DIY-needle minder out of UV Epoxy Resin, 2 magnets, some key charms and a little bit glitter.
It's lightweight enough to use it on embroidery or during the sewing of bigger EPP-projects. I really like it and will do some more in the future.

(I used a form for a pendant, need something without a hole for a string.. tried to close, but obviously failed)

My thanks goes to @ulktante@troet.cafe - hadn't she used a bought (and really beautiful!) needle minder during our online meeting of #VersponnenerSalon last month, I wouldn't have known that something so useful exists!
