Probably the best photo I'll be able to get of my Paducah Log Cabin quilt before it is mailed off to my Aunt. I had a lot of fun making and quilting this one, though it was a lot of work. #quilt #quilting #QuiltingandPatchwork #quiltersofmastadon #logcabinquilts #scrappyquilts #judymartinquilts #logcabinblocks

I'm following the #quilting #quilts #quiltingandpatchwork hashtags and noticing so many photos without #AltText. Please add descriptions to your photos! Even if your toot discusses the piece, it's a good practice to get into.

The next one will have a thinner inner binding flange, it’ll go together faster now that I know how to construct it. I have moar fabric… #quiltingandpatchwork and next time I won’t leave a pin in that has to be winkled out! #quiltingmistakes

Is there a #quilter on here who has made a back using the diagonal method? I haven't but I'd give it a try!

Yep, I’m unpicking the basting stitches and repinning this table runner. Decided it needs to be pin basted and so out it comes

As I need a bit of colour boost, some of the favourites from Saturday's stumble around the Textile (not Texel although...) Museum and the Kaffe Fassett exhibition. #Textiles #Elephant #QuiltingAndPatchwork

Flowers for Nana Girl is quilted! I love how this has turned out. #quilt #QuiltingandPatchwork #quilting #rainbowscrapchallenge

Next up is another #rainbowscrapchallenge project. This one is called Flowers for Nana Girl and is another block designed by Kim Brackett. I need to spend the day making sashing units. #quilting #quilt #QuiltingandPatchwork

I made this quilt for my grandson #handquilting #quilting #quiltingandpatchwork #sewing

The Bloom Lap Quilt is Quilted! Finished it tonight. I love my computer-guided long arm. It just needs binding, but it will have to wait until I make a quilt label for it first. #QuiltingandPatchwork #quilting #quilt #rainbowscrapchallenge

#ThrowbackThursday

Looking back to when I finally finished this beast. Not currently on the wall as I have nowhere right now to hang it, but I'm hoping to figure that out soon.

One day, I woke up with the thought that I needed a quilt of the west window of York Minster. My partner choose the colour scheme (first ever pride flag), and it was a very good choice. Finished it during lockdown.

Finished up the filler triangles today. I can finally start putting this quilt together! #Quilting #QuiltingandPatchwork #quilt

OK so, #Introduction

I'm Fred (she/they). I'm a museum curator with specialisms in architecture and historical costume, and a deeply geeky interest in the history of folklore and belief. My many hobbies include #CreativeWriting, #crafting, #costuming, #QuiltingAndPatchwork, #HorrorFiction, and cheerleading my friends in their creations.

I'm super into #HistoricalTextiles, especially medieval and earlier, and #HistoricalPractice in sewing.
