Sign up to be a Hun! You too can give your young children a complex about something they can't control and plaster their fragile skin in cheap quality products! this makes me so sad, she's such a beautiful little girl.

[FINISHED] My 4 yr old daughter requested I turn the fox fabric into a quilt. No cutting, no patterns, just a plain and simple quilt she said. So that's what I did! I love how easy these are to put together! She's asleep just now so I'm sure she'll get a nice surprise in the morning :)

I DID IT! I finished the quilt! Thank you all again so much for helping me begin my quilting journey. I am so, so pleased with it. It's beautifully cosy, a bit on the small side but I'm okay with that. I made a little pillow to match too. What do you all think? I'm so proud of myself!

All laid out and ready to be sewed together. This might take a while! (Quilt number 4) here's hoping with the tips given last time I have much better luck with the seams! Is there any way to speed up the sewing process at all? None of the triangles have been sewed at all yet.

One year ago today my daughter was rushed to the kids hospital with a severe pleural effusion. Today she is in school and still fighting as hard as she can; making me the proudest mama on the planet! (More info in comments)

I'm sure you are all going to get fed up of me soon. But I wanted to show you how much you have all helped me in the last couple of days! I put a post up recently of my shark/nautical squares that didn't line up. You gave me advice, I've followed it & look at the result! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

I traced and quilted my daughters heart beat onto the quilt I made for her and my mum. My wee superstar has a life limiting heart condition which has required multiple OHS since she was 5 days old. Now there will always be a piece of her with us when we have to say goodbye. Also posted on r/pics

My 9 year old son put together this quilt top! There's still more to add to it which I'm going to do but I think he's done a great job and I'm so proud!

My sister is pregnant with a miracle baby so I self drafted a super cute set consisting of the bandana bib and 2 burp cloths. My 9 year old son decided to make a pram pillow and my 10 year old step daughter made a cot pillow to complete it.

I asked for advice regarding making an amazing quilt for my sisters miracle baby and still haven't yet began working on a big one, but I thought you would all like to see the little set I made for her. It consists of a newborn lap quilt, a cot pillow, pram pillow, 2 burp cloths and a bandana bib!

Sorry, me again! I've just (terribly) quilted the deer block. How is it looking? I'm no good at the FMQ part. It's meant to look 'windy'.

My poor 10 month old Rhode Island Red hen laid this monstrosity this morning. It's so big that the box doesn't close properly. I've definitely seen bigger from people on this sub but this is by far the biggest I've had from my hens!

If you guys remember my 'windy' deer block for my quilt, you will know how proud I am of this quilting I done. The only difference is that I got some quilting gloves. Thank you all for the continued support!

I've finished my quilt. But I just can't get the hang of getting it all straight and lined up. I'm so glad it's only for my mum, I'm so disappointed :( the patches all look different sizes and most of it doesn't line up properly. Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong?

I took a break from my step daughters quilt and made my dog a quilt bed out of the scraps. I think she likes it! I just added double batting to make it extra comfortable and cosy for her. I really am enjoying quilting and am glad I came across this sub to inspire me to start!

The finished quilt! I done a mix of straight line quilting, curvy lines and everything in between. I played about a lot on the main white strip to get a feel for different patterns (it's for my SD) I'm really pleased with the end result despite my frustrations. Thank you to all who offered advice.

I'm designing some blocks for my new quilt, and wanted my 3 kids to do a block each too because they are a huge part of my life. The 6 in the right pic are the ones I've done so far, the one on the left is designed by my 5yo and she has called it Raindrops. This quilt is going to be so fun!

My daughter showcasing the very first wearable item I've sewed! Sorry about not being able to see the skirt properly, this is the only one I got before she decided to go and feed the chickens!

SO took me birthday shopping at a craft store so I decided to get some fat quarter bundles and a few meters of other fabrics. Can't wait to see what I can do with these! Any good fat quarter quilt patterns out there?

Just completed my very first blanket with fleece inside thanks to the very much appreciated valuable advice from fellow Reddit crafters. I'm a newbie, & I feel very proud of it. It's for my 4 & 8 year old girls. Thank you to all who helped me! What do you all think? Honest opinions appreciated!

[FO] I self drafted reversible a 3 in 1 baby wrap, quilt and portable changing mat with handy pockets. It saves mum carrying all 3 things in her changing bag and gives a place to store all the essentials. Pockets are all different sizes and lined. More info and pictures in comments.

Got the layout sorted thank you to u/OnwardAnd-Upward who very kindly designed it for me on a spreadsheet. Much happier now!! (Ignore the bottom row, I started to sew and then took a picture)

This is a quilted wall piece for my step dad, I copied and printed my daughters writing and drawing of him on to it, they have an amazing relationship! He is a HUGE Celtic fan, it's for his birthday this month. It has command hooks on the back to avoid ruining the overall look with a string handle.

Thank you to all who gave me advice regarding making my blanket more cosy! I added a fleece piece in the middle-per the instructions given. I then added a bit of fabric on the back so it is double sided. I'm so pleased with it! What do you all think? Honest opinions appreciated! Thank you all again!

A quilt in a day. I made my sister this yesterday after she complimented the jungle book fabric, it was also her birthday so I plan on getting it to her today as a surprise :)

I'm sorry for the rubbish pictures but I'm proud of myself for managing to make these over a period of 2 days. I haven't used any patterns but would like to, does anyone know of any good ones? These are the very first skirts I have ever made for my daughter and step daughters. CCW, thank you.

My SD10 requested this quilt. She chose her own colours, patterns and layout. I think it's unusually cute! (Sorry about my partners feet, he legitimately wouldn't let me get a picture without waving his feet in front of the camera because he thinks he's funny!) more than halfway done with the top!

Chicks exploring their new run (in progress) still have chicken wire to add to make it higher and more secure.

Sorry it's me again! How do you all get your shapes perfect? I can't seem to do it. I measured these perfectly, to the millimetre. Cut them with scissors and they've ended up like this again. Please help? Also, how do you make the blankets that have patterns? (Chevrons etc?)

Reddit santas, I am over whelmed at receiving all these today for my children! They are looking forward to opening them on Christmas Day. Don't worry, I've given you full credit for them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, sincerely.

First attempt at a newborn leggings and hat set went perfectly. Self drafted. *not a real baby.

This was the very first time I made a blanket. It's made from an old bed sheet and some spare FQ's I had lying about. I'm a sewing newbie. I love the style of the blanket but it lacks the 'warmth' needed to make it cosy. How can I improve? I'd like to make another one for my DD's birthday. Thanks.

My young daughter has a life limiting heart condition that has required many open heart surgeries since she was 5 days old. I have traced and quilted her actual heart beat onto the quilt I made for her and my mum. That way there's always a piece of her with us when we have to say goodbye.

My flock coming to say good morning! Unfortunately after tomorrow we will be 3 down because 3 of them are Roos and have to go back :(

I would like to thank those who offered advice and linked videos yesterday (link to previous post in comments) I ran out of elastic so used a zip and some fabric and unintentionally made a skirt that can fit kids from age 4-10! More info in comments.

This is the first block of 25 for my quilt. What type of quilting would you do on this? I'm much better at straight line quilting than FMQ because I only have a basic domestic machine.

[SPECIFIC] can someone please possibly remove the people from the back ground? Thank you!

Reposting because the last one was removed because of the title (???) I traced and stitched my sick daughters heart beat on to a quilt I made for her and my mum. That way we can always remember what her heart beat looked like when we say goodbye. (Let me know if there's a problem with the title)

Can anyone tell me how much something like this is worth? Except the tredel being a darker (walnut?) colour. In pretty good condition. Double points for anyone who can tell me what year it is too!

I had this done for my daughter. She is the bird, the cage is the hospital, there are 19 bars for the 19 weeks she spent in there from birth & it represents her finally getting her freedom from being discharged after 2 open heart surgeries, cardiac arrests and months in ITU. More needs added to it.

Is this Orpington a male or female? 11 weeks old.

I'm trying to make this approx double sized quilt for my mum, I've got more dark teal patches I can cut and add to it. I can't figure out the placement and it's stressing me. I think there's too much going on, how can I fix it without reducing the size of the blanket? The binding is the dark teal.

6yr ⋅

Honest opinions. Does this look like a flower or leaf? How should I embroidery the stem? It's applique for a baby sleep suit.

6yr ⋅

[SPECIFIC] can someone change the background please? I'm unsure what to have it changed to but she's a kid who laughs in the face of danger. We all say the lion cub is 'her animal' (little yet fierce) and I have a lion tattooed for her, so maybe something with her laughing at a lion or similar?
