Well, where did that 18 years go? from Terificreations's Weblog

WordPress recently notified me that I’ve been blogging on this site for 18 years. First of all, where did that time go? And secondly, there is a need to post with greater frequency. So here I am today blogging away with my favorite movie in the background. Tidying up my studio from four weeks of… Continue reading Well, where did that 18 years go?

February 13, 2026 from Terificreations's Weblog

A post in three parts One. I love teaching color. Color is delightful, beautiful, complicated, simple, personal, unique, common, playful, as delightfully messy as mud and as wildly clean as rainbows after a summer storm. There are several things I’m doing with color right now: Showing the remake of Split Complementerity on the great pict-o-gram… Continue reading February 13, 2026

Color by Emotion on Off the Wall Friday from Creations - Quilts, Art, Whatever by Nina-Marie Sayre

Inspiration

It's been a tough week. Nothing like a crippling icy snowstorm to cramp your creative style. The bright moment in the week was Cindi Gay's Rug Hooking class. I really look forward to her classes. They have just enough structure to make them productive but she doesn't mind going off on a tangent of everything rug hooking. Because her background is originally painting, lots of times it comes with a fine arts bent.

This week we finally summarized our Geometric Rug Journey. What started off with how to do a geometric rug back in September ended ...

A Little Maker Love from Dueling Threads

There is something about the whimsy of a holiday that gives me the itch to create themed gifts. What started as making some valentine throw pillow covers quickly turned into button mirrors, engraving, and embroidery too. I always have a little something lying around that works for my crafts. When my sew day plans went bust last weekend, I just started making! Now I have a table full of love to share with my friends (and with you!).

One of my favorite pieces is the red quilt block key chains made from some of my leftover red acrylic from my ...

Welcome to 2026 from Terificreations's Weblog

After finishing piecing a row of quilt blocks I checked the stitch count on the BERNINA 560 and it’s just over 1.5 million stitches since the last service. That was just over five years ago. That’s not a lot of stitches when 3 million per year is average expected. I clearly have not been doing… Continue reading Welcome to 2026

The Lack of Color in 2026 on Off the Wall Friday from Creations - Quilts, Art, Whatever by Nina-Marie Sayre

'tis the Season right? The season for decorating, shopping, lights, wrapping and all things color. Normally, it's the time of year that is sensory overload with all the different colors everywhere. I look forward to it because it's my first line of defense against the cold and the dark days of December. Lately though it seems to have gotten harder.

It all started when I realized my stash of wrapping paper had nearly diminished. So, I went to Walmart looking for some pretty new paper. I mean, I hoped to find some pretty new paper. But no. It ...

Beauty for a small person from The Academic Quilter

Good day everyone! How are you today? I'm hanging in there. It's getting to be that time of year when it's dark when I get up and getting dark when I get home. This is no fun, especially because, somehow, the darkness makes people forget how to drive. Get it together, people! We can still see you trying to go 100 miles an hour through the traffic, even if it's dark outside.

Ah, well. Today I have something much brighter and happier to show off-- a finished baby quilt! Here she is:

Perfecting the Tote Bag–Part 1, the Turquoise Onion Tote from Art and Quilting in Camden

Confession: I love boxes, bags, baskets…. the more, the merrier. I still wonder what happened to that plaid and a little bit of leather bag I had when I was six! And I love having my bags work for me, offering the perfect combination of color, print and cloth, and function.

Over the years I have learned that I HATE rummaging around in the pitch dark bottom of a deep bag. I think of those as North-South bags, taller than they are wide. I vastly prefer East-West–where I can actually FIND stuff inside. It also means black and other ...

The Color Cabal - It's a thing on Off the Wall Friday from Creations - Quilts, Art, Whatever by Nina-Marie Sayre

My day job is selling clothing. Today, as I sold my 13th coral almond shirt, it had me asking - Why coral almond? I'm not overly fond of the color, but my customers are eating it up (well not literally). I long for the days of lime green which I love...but nope it's all about coral this year. WHY?

Welllll....apparently..... there is a handful of companies whose job it is to decide what are the "In" colors are this year. How? Through a lot of research in cultural and psychological trends. The crazy thing is that it ...

Strings are Finished! from Heart Desire Creations

Finishes are so rewarding! The blocks were all completed at two different retreats. It’s sewing that doesn’t require much concentration, leaving me available to socialize and have fun. Having completed the needed number of blocks at the second retreat, I brought them home to add to the blocks already put together from the first retreat.

It is 7 x 8 blocks 8″ finished. I added 2 inch borders making it an acceptable size to be sent to Snuggled in Hope Quilts where it will be quilted. The binding will also be sent along with the quilt top.

Big Scraps Scrappy from Heart Desire Creations

There is a bin of yardage in my studio that is for donation quilts. Why not a big scrap scrappy?! I saw a picture of this quilt online and decided it was perfect. Unlike my usual crazy haphazard just cut and sew, I drew the quilt out – the center strips had to be going in particular directions. The triangles were cut, the green strips cut, then the sewing began. This step took a while.

A group of us are meeting twice a month at a nearby church and I’ve designated those days for donation quilts. Quilting with friends and ...
