Project Name & Page Link: Yellow Quilt Block for a friend
Brief Description: A friend of mine was really struggling to find enough yellow fabrics for a rainbow quilt she is making, so as a surprise I delved into my most precious fabric stash to fussy cut the parts of this block for her. Within this block are some of my favourite fabric designers including Heather Ross and Ayumi Takahashi. Normally I use every inch of fabric - so it was a little painful to ‘waste’ fabric around the fussy cuts

Project Name & Page Link: Quilting Bee Blocks
Brief Description: Earlier this year I started a quilting bee, which has been such a wonderful opportunity to connect with other sewists (albeit online) whose ages range from mid 30s to mid 80s. We have challenged each other out of our comfort zones with a wide variety of style and fabric preferences in the group. All round it’s been a great experience. These are the blocks that I made for one of the Queen Bees 
Our brief was white stars on a blue background - sewists choice. I designed the paper piecing pattern for the 2-star block myself

Project Name & Page Link: Will add a link when I make a post
Brief Description: Sewing is most definitely my ‘go-to’ craft. I have the most confidence and largest stash My partner is tennis mad 
- in the best way 
however, there are tennis balls all around our house I thought this would be a perfect item to make for him to keep some of the tennis balls in one place and stop them getting underfoot 
It holds around 20 balls.
This basket uses a pattern called the 1 Hour Basket which I downloaded for free years ago. Now I think I can gather it’s a paid pattern - however blueprint is no longer in operation 
so sorry if you wanted to make one

Beautiful sewing! Love the star quilt panel. I just recently picked up some fabrics with the intention of learning. Haven’t touched a seeing machine since 8th grade Home Ec.

Brief Description: We’re celebrating my mom’s birthday tomorrow (12th) via a zoom call, and I’m dropping off these for her to enjoy. I don’t think she’s had strawberry shortcake in years. I taste tested the one from the photo, since this is a new recipe for me. It was gooooood.

Project Name & Page Link: Keto Strawberry shortcakes
Brief Description: Look at those lovely curves on the uncut shortcakes! To go with the previous GF shortcakes for my mom, I tested this recipe for Keto shortcakes that my fiance and I can enjoy on the zoom call with mom. Modifications : I substituted 1/4 c of the almond flour for coconut flour, used Birchbenders maple flavored Magic Syrup, and blueberries instead of strawberries for the plated picture, so fiance could it eat.

Challenge: Chapter 12: The Mirror of Erised July 6-19
House: Hufflepuff
Project Description: I’ve always associated darning with socks. This darning happens to be what I used as visible mending for one of my daughters’ beloved bags. One of her rabbits chewed holes in it, and she asked if I could fix it. It was the perfect opportunity to try one of the things I’d seen on Instagram that Boukhou does a lot. (She makes all kinds of beautiful things in addition to doing pretty mending.) I used colours to match the mending to the noodle bowl. 
There’s one more on the back as well.

Class or Challenge Title: Iron Chef - Peaches
House: Gryffindor!
Project Name & Page Link: Peach Crisp
Brief Description: I’m so glad peaches came up as this months Iron Chef prompt! I adore peaches, but I like them firm, and find that even if I buy rock hard ones at the store, 2 days later they are soft. So a perfect excuse to turn them into Peach Crisp. I followed the recipe exactly, except that I added in allspice & cloves along with the nutmeg to the fruit mixture, and I added allspice & cloves with the cinnamon in the crumble topping. I also didn’t bother to peel the peaches, just washed them well. Even my husband who isn’t a huge peach fan loved this crisp. My only note is that next time I make the recipe, I’ll choose a wider pan, so the huge amount of topping has more surface area to get crispified.

Those masks are so pretty! If we have to wear them, they might as well look nice! I’m expecting an ironing board today, so I can iron the fabric I prewashed and try my hand at some sewing.
Edited, wow spelling and grammar…
