Curious to see how much more I will knit of my comfort mitre-square blanket in 2026! Happy New Year! 🥳🎊🎉 @everydayknitter.bsky.social #knitting #showmeyourknits #knittersofbluesky #knit #textiles #crafts #happynewyear

Great inspiration for those of us who #knit the same boring hat over and over again. #knitsky #knitting #knittersofbluesky #blueskyknits

Look at this magnificent 1930s Shetland shawl…. #knit #knitsky

I didn’t think I would ever get this shawl finished. It is lovely yarn and I’m glad I didn’t frog it. #knitsky #knitting

Took time away from doomscrolling to make something beautiful. This is the Sagebrush shirt by @fridaypatternco.bsky.social in Nani Iro double gauze. The sleeves would make Anne of Avonlea proud. 🫡 #garmentsewing #sewsky #

Spending the second half of my lunch hour stitching temperature blocks and listening to KEXP playing songs about birds. #quiltsky #sewsky

verb /əbˈstrakt/ 'extract or remove (something)' Extracting & removing Heidi's post-operative head from the 'cone of shame' each morning without ripping the stitches out on her right side is devilish But at bedtime the Hell Hound looks angelic 👼 #WeekAforAbstract #Dogs #AlphabetChallenge #BTposse

This wedding robe was created during the cultural flowering of the late Tokugawa era when sumptuary laws paradoxically spurred greater creativity in luxury garment production. The rich benibana-dyed ground speaks to the garment's aristocratic provenance, 1804-1818, Japan

Taken on the same day from a different perspective, this photo looks behind the scenes of the restoration process at the colonnades opposite the palace. The South Commun can be seen in the backdrop. #PalacesAndGardens #SunriseOrSunset #photography #PhotographersOfBluesky #EastCoastKin

#PinkWednesday This is "Hope Blooms" by Jean Wallace. On this Crabapple Hill pattern she added color to the flowers with colored pencils and then embroidered around the picture. The pattern and execution makes for a sweet quilt.

#TuesdayBlue "Bali Star Wedding Ring" was created by Bobbi Whitlock who did both the piecing and the quilting. This was a 3 year plus project. She said the piecing went pretty fast, but it took 2 years to quilt and 1 year to bind. Proof positive that quilters can accomplish big things.
