The fourth prompt for the @colorgirlquilts #mycreative19 is favourite tools, and I think this photo captures the majority of my fav tools all at once. As well as my work process. 😂 (Everyone is tagged, if you’re curious about my favs). In keeping with the theme of "things I've discovered in 2019" though, I definitely have to highlight my hera marker from @cloverusa. Such a simple little tool has made flying geese and HST's so much easier, especially when using darker fabrics! I don't have to worry about washing out markings, and it's so quick and easy to use. What are your favourite sewing tools? Have you discovered any life-changing notions recently? 🧵 #sewingspace #creativespace #mycreativelife #quiltersofinstagram #quiltsofinstagram #olfacreates #omnigrid #myfavthings #createeveryday #creativelifehappylife #quilting #quiltingismytherapy #ilovequilting #whereicreate #calledtobecreative #2019 #yearinreview #livecolorfully #handsandhustle #doitfortheprocess #smallbiz

Yesterday, I shared my proudest finish ever, and today I’m sharing my proudest finish of 2019. But can I still call it a finish if he doesn’t have eyes? 😂 This time last year, I discovered the Big Sky Bear quilt hanging on the wall at my local quilt shop, and knew I *had* to make it! 😍 But since I was still living the retail Christmas life, I had to wait until the new year.. and it kicked off an entire year of quilty awesomeness in 2019. #quiltersofinstagram #quiltsofinstagram #mycreative2019 #2019 #quilt #quiltlife #quiltingismytherapy #quilting #ilovequilting #calledtobecreative #createeveryday #photochallenge #fabriclove #modafabrics #bigskybearquilt #finishedquilt #makersgonnamake #handsandhustle #handmadeisbetter #doitfortheprocess #creativelifehappylife #craftsposure

@colorgirlquilts #MyCreative19 Day 3: Proudest Finish. ✨ This is one of my first-ever finishes, and is definitely one of the quilts that sparked my love of being creative. I found a tutorial for a granny square block on Pinterest, and looked for the brightest, boldest fabrics I could find - Happy Tones by @michaelmiller and Good Morning by @meandmysisterdesigns. And of course, Kona Snow for the background. 😍 It took me forever to finish this quilt, because i sent it out to be longarmed. I wanted to offset the mismatched seams and lost points by having it professionally quilted, and I love the way it turned out! I definitely see a few more Granny Square quilts in my future! #quiltsofinstagram #quiltersofinstagram #finishedquilt #grannysquarequilt #grannysquare #meandmysisterdesigns #michaelmiller #michaelmillerfabrics #robertkaufman #konasolids #konacotton #quiltblocks #longarmquilting #createeveryday #creativelife #happylife #borntobecreative #borntocreate #quiltingismytherapy #creativelifehappylife #handsandhustle #doitfortheprocess #creativepreneur

You won't find any crisp, white furniture or elaborate shelving systems in my sewing space. 😂 Day 2 of @colorgirlquilts #mycreative19 prompts is showing off your creative space, and this is mine. A tiny corner of my apartment, with reclaimed furniture, a few plants, and a whole lotta sunlight. ☀ I'm eagerly awaiting the day when we finally get to move to Texas, and I can set up a real sewing space... but until then, this is my little corner of paradise. 🧵 #creativespace #whereicreate #apartmentlife #quiltersofinstagram #quiltlife #quiltlove #sewingspace #reclaimedfurniture #lushcosmetics #2019 #photochallenge #myhome #myspace #janome #saskatoon #decorinspiration #apartmenttherapy #standingdesk

My creative passion? Quilts. Any and all parts of sewing quilts, for myself and for other people. I am a very tactile person, and I love the feeling of a freshly pressed seam, and the squishiness of a quilt that has just been quilted. ✨ This year, though, I really focused on making a bunch of quilt tops... and didn't get much actual quilting done. My goal for 2020 will be to fully finish at least five quilts, so I'll likely be hanging out at my mom's house quite a bit on the weekends! 🧵 What has been your favourite part of the process this year? Is there a step you avoid? 😂Join in the #mycreative2019 party with @colorgiirlquilts and tell us about it! #quiltersofinstagram #quiltsofinstagram #creativelifehappylife #create2019 #photochallenge #quiltingfriends #mycreativelife #sewfun #sewcreative #quiltlove #quiltlife #quiltingismytherapy #ilovequilting #mycreativepassion #enjoytheprocess #doitfortheprocess #handsandhustle #handmadeisbetter #artgalleryfabrics #misterdomestic #mgjbtx #craftsposure #creativepreneur #calledtobecreative #communityovercompetition #photoparade
