InarticulateQuilter<p>Borders added! There’s a few buildings that need a touch more fabric paint, but luckily I haven’t rinsed the dye I made up yet</p><p>When quilted, this one will be called Suffragist City, a name that has utterly delighted me the whole time I worked on it</p><p>(just an aside - I know as a U.S. women’s suffrage-themed quilt this technically should have been purple and yellow, but that color combo is nails on a chalkboard for me, so 💜 and 💚 it is)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quilting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/InarticulateSkyline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InarticulateSkyline</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/DataViz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DataViz</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/VotesForWomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VotesForWomen</span></a></p>
InarticulateQuilter<p>First side border is painted. Despite using the tiniest paintbrushes I could find I’m still getting a bit of bleed. This paint kit comes with white, though, so I may try to use it as white out</p><p>Otherwise pleased. I think it’s going to enhance the votes for women quilt nicely </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quilting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/InarticulateSkyline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InarticulateSkyline</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Fabric" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fabric</span></a></p>
InarticulateQuilter<p>The buildings are pieced! There was one small section I had to hand stitch because the bits were too small to sew the y-seam with my machine. Nothing like designing a pattern that that’s too difficult for you to actually make 🤦‍♀️</p><p>Next up is letters and borders. There’s an interesting xoxsew pattern I’m thinking of emulating for the bottom border - <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/947578875/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">etsy.com/listing/947578875/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quilting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/WIP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WIP</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/InarticulateSkyline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InarticulateSkyline</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/VotesForWomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VotesForWomen</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sewing</span></a></p>
InarticulateQuilter<p>Third attempt at the Asian Women voters building appears to be the charm (and the address might still be off? It’s really hard to center the windows, etc on buildings that are supposed to be behind other buildings perspective-wise)</p><p>Each building is about 1 ½ days of work. I knew working small would be hard, but this isn’t even that small when you get right down to it 🤷‍♀️</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quilting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/InarticulateSkyline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InarticulateSkyline</span></a></p>
InarticulateQuilter<p>Putting sills around the windows is slowing me down, but I like have another purple fabric on the building </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quilting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/InarticulateSkyline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InarticulateSkyline</span></a></p>
