How exciting to get to finally share my Postcard from Sweden quilt with my guild! I love the black and white striped binding. #Repost @vancouvermqg with @repostapp ・・・ @hollybroadland finished her Holly's postcards from Sweden quilt! #hollyspostcardfroms

I loved sharing with others who have the same weird hobby at tonight's @vancouvermqg meeting. Art by @wyndedyer. #vmqg

Quilty peeps, I need binding advice! I was lucky enough to make striped binding for the sides of this quilt from backing strips. I'm thinking of doing scrappy neutrals to bind the top and bottom. What do you think? How can I deal with the corners? #quilte

Retreats are amazing! I did nothing yesterday except quilt, eat, and sleep. The sleep came after I finished quilting at 12:30am. #hollyspostcardfromsweden #Repost @eclecticgnome with @repostapp ・・・ Yay Holly! She finished quilting her #postcardsfromsweden

I was able to eke out a backing for my Postcard from Sweden quilt out of wide minky, but I wouldn't recommend this option. Check out how close I got to the edge! #dodgedabullet #daringquilter #vmqgretreat2017 #hollyspostcardfromsweden #postcardfromswedenq

Now that the pillowcase swap is over, I can share the pillowcase I made with @heatherbailey fabrics. @lesliemcewan won it and chose to keep it, even though she had the final chance to steal. I'm honoured! #vmqgretreat2017 #vmqgswap #heatherbaileyfabric

My LouLouthi cushion is complete! I started this project in a hand quilting workshop with @annamariahorner at QuiltCon 2013. The final hand stitches were added at the recent VMQG retreat during a brief power outage. This was my first time sewing with pomp
