What Are You Sewing?


So this is on my design wall today. These are blocks for a Sew Along that my guild is doing. I am the organizer so I need to see this often to decide what the next blocks will be. This could not come at a better time for our members. I even added blocks because we all have a lot of time on our hands!


I love this book block! It was a fun one. I had to figure out how to fit in those titles.


All of my guilds have started having Zoom meetings. They are fun but let's face it, not quite the same as the real thing. I am hoping things will get back to normal so we can see real quilts and hear real lectures.
I won these at the Lancaster Modern Quilt Guild last week. I have always loved the Quick Curved Ruler. The book has a fun tulip pattern I want to try.


So of course I had to try it out. Two blocks made using (2)  5" squares. They came out perfect which is the whole idea behind the ruler. If you have been wanting to try curves, this is the perfect tool. I do have a quilt in mind......


This is a Fig Tree block of the month. I am enjoying it and am excited to see how it unfolds.


My focus is still a bit shaky.....this is how the block is supposed to look


but I got this one instead! Oh well it will truly be my quilt.


I have also started a doll quilt. These blocks are 3 1/2". I will set them with alternating blue squares. At least that is the plan for now. As you can see, one can never have too many projects!



Wow! A lot of you wanted to make this quilt! I sent out about 200 patterns!!! I can't wait to see what you all do with it. I love how mine turned out and the colors are so bright outside. It feels kitschy and a little 1970's to me. Please ignore the dirty deck, we haven't cleaned it yet.


I feel like this is a pattern that you can use any fabrics with and have a successful quilt.


The more fabrics the merrier and the crazier the better!


So to be clear the size of the block is 10" not 12", I wrote it wrong. Also if you emailed me and did not get the pattern it is because I did not get your email. Sometime when people email the email address is not there. If this is you, please send me another email and include your email address in it and I will be happy to send it to you.
Now how to quilt it.....and figure out the name.

  18. I made a costly mistake on Coinbase, sending $43,000 worth of Bitcoin to an incorrect address. The support team informed me that recovery was impossible. Desperate for a solution, I researched online and discovered Morphohack, a company with a proven track record in cryptocurrency recovery. I contacted them, providing transaction details and screenshots. To my surprise, Morphohack successfully tracked down my Bitcoin, which had been transferred to multiple micro wallets, and recovered approximately $39,800. If you've lost Bitcoins or other crypto due to a similar mistake, lost access to your crypto wallet, Morphohack Cyber Service may be able to assist you.

  19. I’m Gina Kelleher, a 42‑year‑old marketing consultant in Toronto, and I’ve always been the type to research every decision down to the smallest detail. When it came to crypto, I moved at a snail’s pace: years spent gauging trends, making tiny trades, and monitoring the market minute by minute. By December 2024, I finally felt ready. I consolidated everything, $625,000 in Bitcoin onto CBEX.cx, a platform that checked every box.
    One late February morning, I tried to log in and the site had simply vanished. No maintenance notice. No downtime alert. Just… gone. Initially, I chalked it up to an outage. But as hours stretched into days, the reality hit: CBEX.cx had crashed or worse, disappeared with millions of dollars in user funds. Online forums exploded with panic, and whispers of an exit scam circulated without confirmation. I was paralyzed. I immediately contacted lawyers, filed complaints, even reached out to other exchanges, but every lead fizzled out. “Crypto’s risky,” they told me. I refused to accept that as my final answer.

    Then I found Morphohack Cyber, a digital forensics team with a reputation for crypto recovery. I was wary, how many times had I heard empty promises? But Morphohack’s transparency stood out. They laid out their methods clearly and outlined realistic expectations.
    Within hours, they were deep in my case: tracing transaction trails, analyzing mixer patterns, and infiltrating shadow exchanges. Three days later, the call came: they’d located every Bitcoin.
    By the first week of March, my full $625,000 worth of bitcoins had been restored to my wallet.
    I’m more vigilant than ever now and deeply aware of crypto’s pitfalls. But thanks to Morphohack Cyber, I’ve also learned that help exists and sometimes, hope does too. If you’re facing a similar nightmare, don’t give up. Contact Morphohack via Morphohack@cyberservices. com

  20. My name is Daniel Harris, and I’m from Perth, Australia. In early 2024, I fell victim to a fake crypto mining company called Aurum Mining Solutions. They looked professional, they had a sleek website, convincing consultants, and even fake ASIC credentials. I invested gradually, and over time, I put in a total of $87,000 AUD, thinking my profits were growing.

    Then one day, the website disappeared. The consultant vanished. I couldn’t log in or get answers. It was crushing, I had been completely scammed.
    I reported it to the authorities, but I didn’t expect anything to come of it. Then I heard about Morphohack Cyber Services. I reached out, and they were incredible fast, professional, and honest. They tracked the stolen Bitcoin and helped me recover everything I lost.

    Most people never see their money again after a crypto scam, I’m lucky I found Morphohack. They gave me a second chance and proved that real recovery is possible.

  21. 💔 Romance Scam Testimony: I Lost $275,000

    I never imagined I’d fall for a scam — but I did. I met someone online who seemed caring and genuine. We spoke every day, built what felt like a real connection, and talked about a future together. Then came the “investment opportunities.” He promised big returns through crypto, showed fake profits, and convinced me it was all for our future. I started small, then gave more — draining my retirement, savings, and even borrowing from friends. In total, I lost $275,000. The financial loss was devastating. The emotional betrayal? Even worse. I felt ashamed and completely alone. But I want you to know: you are not alone. Romance scammers are skilled manipulators. If this happened to you, it’s not your fault. I had to confide in a close friend of mine who then introduced me to this crypto recovery team with the best recovery jetwebhackers i contacted them and they were able to completely recover my stolen digital assets with ease. Their service was superb, and my problems were solved in swift action, It only took them 48 hours to investigate and track down those scammers and my funds were returned to me. I strongly recommend this team to anyone going through a similar situation with their investment or fund theft to look up this team for the best appropriate solution to avoid losing huge funds to these scammers...

  22. Title: From Despair to Hope — How I Recovered $255,000 Lost to a Forex Scam

    Earlier this year, I made what I thought was a smart financial move — investing $3,500 into an online forex trading platform that appeared highly professional and convincing. At first, everything seemed perfect. My initial deposit started growing rapidly. I watched my account balance rise to an incredible $155,000 in what felt like no time.

    Excited by the apparent success, I decided to trust the process and added more funds. As time passed, I invested an additional $100,000, encouraged by what seemed to be a thriving portfolio. However, the moment I tried to withdraw my profits, things began to unravel.

    The platform stalled my withdrawal attempts with vague excuses and eventually demanded more payments — so-called "processing fees" and "security clearances." That was when the harsh reality hit me: I had fallen victim to a meticulously orchestrated scam.

    The pain of losing over $250,000 was unbearable. Sleepless nights, overwhelming regret, and a deep sense of betrayal followed. I was ashamed to speak about it, thinking no one could help. But fate had one more surprise in store — and this time, it was a good one.

    During a desperate online search for recovery options, I came across Cloudstrike Cyber Security. Skeptical but with nothing left to lose, I reached out to them via their contact email: [Cloudstrikecyber@gmail.com]

    From the very first interaction, they were professional, empathetic, and direct. They listened to my story, analyzed the platform I had been scammed by, and explained the recovery process step-by-step. I was shocked by how much they already knew about these types of fraud rings. Over the course of several weeks, they worked tirelessly — tracking digital footprints, leveraging blockchain forensics, and using advanced cyber investigation tools.

    Against all odds, Cloudstrike Cyber Security recovered 95% of my lost funds. That’s right — they brought back over $240,000 that I thought was gone forever.

    To anyone out there going through something similar: you are not alone. Scammers are getting smarter, but so are the people fighting them. I highly recommend Cloudstrike Cyber Security to anyone who has been a victim of a crypto or forex scam. They gave me back not just my money, but my peace of mind.

  23. A Second Chance: How SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY Recovered My $335,000 in Ethereum

    I never thought I’d be writing something like this.

    Just a few months ago, I was in one of the darkest moments of my life. I had fallen victim to a well-organized crypto investment scam that wiped out $335,000 worth of Ethereum from my digital wallet. It wasn’t just a number on a screen, it was everything I had. My savings, my security, my future… gone in a flash.

    I couldn’t eat, sleep, or think straight. I felt embarrassed, helpless, and completely lost. Every attempt to trace the scam led to dead ends. Every door I knocked on stayed shut. I started to accept that the money was gone forever—until someone mentioned SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY.

    Skeptical but desperate, I reached out. And that was the moment everything changed.

    From the very first interaction, SPYHOST treated my case like it mattered. Their team of professionals explained the recovery process clearly and reassured me every step of the way. They used advanced forensic tools to track down the stolen assets, follow the blockchain trails, and—against all odds—recover every last bit of my Ethereum.

    I still can’t believe it. But it’s real. They did it.

    SPYHOST gave me back what I thought was lost forever. More than that, they gave me peace of mind and a second chance at rebuilding my life.

    If you're reading this and you've gone through something similar—or if you're in the middle of it right now— do not give up. I wholeheartedly recommend SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY. They are by far the most reputable, skilled, and compassionate digital recovery experts I’ve ever come across.

    Here’s how to reach them: Email:[Spyhost@cyberdude.com]
    WhatsApp:‪‪+1 (228) 313‑3152‬‬

    They didn’t just recover my digital assets—they restored my hope.
