I so enjoy makers' channels, but I really enjoy and appreciate the pace of the lime green sofa. There is no rush to complete a quilt or other project just to put a video out and show a quick run down of start to finished piece in a oner. I love that it has taken you 3 years to finish a quilt you've been sharing with us. Slow making at its finest. 💗

THANKyou so much for saying this! I see so many channels where speed is seen as a virtue - but the process of making anything is what is so pleasing! I love seeing how things come together and making slow decisions and changing my mind ... all of that. - I'm going to pin your comment if you don't mind because this is such an important point to make! xxxxx

@@thelasthomelyhouse I whole heartedly AGREE. The process is akin to any journey worthwhile. We will reach the destination, but it's the journey there that is the most interesting part, especially in projects as they unfold. That's what is do unique and special about your channel. Kate. Thank you, Anna and all your featured family for being YOU.

I’ve thought about documenting my creative, if somewhat schizophrenic endeavors, but content creating is a skill all it’s own, a skill I don’t have, and I’d rather be making stuff! 😂 So thank you for putting yourself out there and sharing your lovely relationship and sewing room and everything.

Years ago I made a quilt for a school project... so there was a deadline, I tied it instead of quilting. After a couple of years of every day use, I noticed that the holes where the ties came through were getting large and I was worried about tearing the fabric. So I start quilting it on my lap (no frame, no hoop). The ties make for great basting. Think ties instead of safety pins. ... Now I tie every quilt instead of pin basting. As I quilt, in my own time, I still get to use the quilt and launder it as the ties hold everything together and I don't have to worry about pins falling out or rusting. My hardest decision is choosing a quilt pattern. First I quilted the boarder because it was loose and billowy, it bothered me whilst I slept. Then I quilted the pieced blocks... and finally it came to me to appliqué the solid blocks. There were a few tiny holes for daily use were I appliqued hearts over the holes. I think quilting helps the piecing hold together longer. 💖🌞🌵😷
