I've posted these before but I was appreciating them again in the early morning sunlight today.

@dillyd They’re lovely! Do you know how to quilt? It’s on my bucket list to learn someday.

@dillyd They are really old, then. But, they still look beautiful.

@lydiaschoch
I do quilt, but I don't know how to crochet. I'd like to learn.

@dillyd Gorgeous!

@dillyd @lydiaschoch I (re)learned how to crochet with books and Youtube.
The basic building block of getting a loop through a loop (once or more) gives an infinite world of possibilities. The hardest part is spending enough time to get regularity. I like #crochet

@dillyd there's a technical term for this but I can't remember it. (You get the same effect if you /say/ the same word too many times in a row.)

@Klara @lydiaschoch
Those are beautiful. I'd like to find somebody to teach me in-person. I really hate watching videos

[dillyd@turtleisland.social]

@colo_lee you're good. Your edit appeared as I was favoriting your reply.

@dillyd
Just think of all the work that went into those! Wonderful

[klara@drupal.community]

@dillyd @lydiaschoch a wool shop in your neighbourhood is the first place were I would ask if they know someone. Many have a notice board. Or in a repair cafe that does textiles.

[dillyd@turtleisland.social]

@Klara @lydiaschoch good idea, I'll look around

[colo_lee@mstdn.social]

@dillyd It's a lot of great greats!

[kellyromanych@mastodon.social]

@dillyd both are beautiful. A lot of love went into those stitches. I've done both quilting & crochet to feel closer to ancestors
