🧵A Little Inspiration + Free Shipping This Weekend


Thursday Thread

A weekly note from Tasha Quilts

Happy Friday Eve!

Last week I mentioned that things were improving with my husband's recovery. Well, this weekend threw us another curve ball, and he had to have another surgery this past weekend. He's home recovering now and we're taking things one day at a time.

Because of everything going on, I wasn't able to get a new YouTube video out this week. The past six weeks have been a good reminder that family always comes first.

However, my sewing machine is calling my name. I'm hoping to be back in the sewing room soon (maybe tonight), and I already have lots of ideas I'm excited to share with you in the coming weeks.

I want to thank you all for the kind messages and well wishes I've received via email, YouTube comments, comments in the Clubhouse, etc.

His room for this latest stay was in the part of the hospital that used to be used for housing inmates - look at the bars on the windows!

What's Inspiring Me This Week

Jimothy took TikTok by storm. And the quilter's wasted no time making their own Jimothy quilts. Has Jimothy the racoon been on your social media feed? Look at this pattern by KiwiXCrossing. If I had the time, I'd be stitching it up! You can find the pattern on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/4541861596/jimothy-raccoon-quilt-block-pattern​

I have not made this pattern, but the designer has really good reviews. This is not sponsored in any way - just something I think is adorable!

I really do believe in sewing things that bring you joy. And how can you not be happy when sewing this up?

Weekly Poll

In last week's poll I asked what your favorite quilting season was:

  • 4% said Spring
  • 1% said summer
  • 20% said Fall
  • 15% said Winter
  • and 60% said all the seasons!!

I think I'm with the majority here - I love sewing year-round but if you twisted my arm and forced me to choose - I would probably choose fall. It's no surprise that I love me some Halloween sewing!

This past week was July 25 - marking we are only 5 months away from Christmas,
Hanukkah and many other holidays! So in this week's poll - are you planning on making homemade gifts this holiday season?

Happy Friday Eve! I recently searched the internet looking for the perfect wallet to make. I found the pattern on Etsy, bought it, and even spent two hours making it. Then I realize the pattern was not good. I wasted a lot of time. I reached out to the seller who apologized and promised they would take the listing down? Do you think that happened? Hear all about it in this week's video - UGH! This video has been taking off a bit (for me) on YouTube, and there are so many comments of people...

Thursday Thread A weekly note from Tasha Quilts on what I'm stitching and what is inspiring me! Happy Friday Eve! This week I experimented making a stained glass inspired (sort of) applique quilt block. It's not perfect, and I think I'd do some things differently next time. I think I would do the full flower and petal units together on the back and then cut them out instead of the individual pieces. I'd also change up the colors a bit. I'd love for you to tell me how you think I could make...

Thursday Thread A weekly note from Tasha Quilts on what I'm stitching and what is inspiring me! Happy Friday Eve! This week is an exciting week - my oldest turns 9 today! My daughter even spent her bookfair money on him yesterday to get him a present today. I did finish up this quilt recently - well, I outsourced it, lol. My friend Susan quilted and put the binding on this quilt for me. It is a Cotton Cuts Puzzle Mystery Quilt called Flyaway. I originally really didn't like this quilt because...
