Just under the gun. The block was fun to pull together. Enjoyed using little bits and pieces of treasures found in my scrap bins. Hope you like :)
My name is Erika Nickens. I live just north east of Indianapolis, Indiana in Fishers. I am a SAHM of three girls aged 15, 11 and 2. I have been quilting almost a year. It has really given me a great outlet for creativity, productivity and ME time. My main gig can get pretty boring ;). Quilting is my main pastime. In the past I have been a scrapbooker. I enjoy making in general and learning new skills.
I am currently infatuated with Kaffe Fassett Collective fabrics and would love to acquire a FQ bundle of Moda Modern Background Paper.
I find myself drawn to the aesthetic of modern quilts, but there is comfort in a good old scrap quilt! Since starting, I have only done straight line quilting but my one of my goals for 2016 is to learn to FMQ on my DSM ( check out my quilter lingo). Long arming I hope, in the future.
Not much of a social media force...
Books... In a neighborhood book club, but not much reading gets done. If I'm reading, it's either to my two year old or about quilting on the web.
Recent TV binges include: Jane the Virgin, Call the Midwife, Doc Martin, Empire, and currently flying through Nurse Jackie.
I was in a HST swap, I love this!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter asked for a coffee press cozy, I think with some tweeks I can use them and this idea! Thanks so much!!!!
