Lone Sock Productions: Big Stairways to Heaven Quilt Top Tutorial
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/p/big-stairways-to-heaven-quilt-top.html
Big Stairways to Heaven Quilt Top Tutorial. This is the pattern for the The Stairways to Heaven quilt top. This is a pattern for the top only. I have made this with two designs of fabric in 3 colours each. So, you take your 6 half yards and cut them into strips selvedge to selvedge. You'll need two strips measuring 5.5" wide and two of 3" wide from each fabric (there should be less than an inch left over). 1a wide with 2b narrow. 3b wide with 2a narrow. 3a wide with 1b narrow. 2b wide with 1a narrow.

Lone Sock Productions: A story nothing to do with sewing, since I'm still just sewing ties.
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/2013/03/a-story-nothing-to-do-with-sewing-since.html
Friday, March 1, 2013. A story nothing to do with sewing, since I'm still just sewing ties. About a month ago, my laptop, which I'd been using for about a year (having bought ex-rental for $200 as a temporary thing while I "found one I liked enough to spend a lot of money on") died on me, handily right before I was about to head off on a trip to Adelaide, which meant it was easy enough for me to find a temporary replacement laptop for my temporary replacement laptop. History from the beginning of time.

Lone Sock Productions: Baby Sized "Stairways to Heaven" tutorial
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/p/baby-sized-stairways-to-heaven-tutorial.html
Baby Sized "Stairways to Heaven" tutorial. So here's the smaller version of the Stairways to Heaven quilt top. Final size should be 36" square. Measurements are in inches, and use a quarter inch seam allowance. Metric measurements are provided at the end. You'll need exactly 7.5" selvedge to selvedge of each of six fabrics, so a quarter yard cut will leave you with plenty of leeway for wonky or badly cut edges. You'll need two fabrics each of 3 colours. I have gone with brown, green and blue. Put the blo...

Lone Sock Productions: Dont let THIS, happen to YOU!
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/2013/05/dont-let-this-happen-to-you.html
Saturday, May 25, 2013. Dont let THIS, happen to YOU! So 10 hours ago when I was standing in the Salvos my brain was all like, "hey, lets buy that brown silk hand beaded top with the draped back and the asymmetric hem. We can shorten the shoulder straps, take out the tag, make the drape be at the bust and straighten out the hem. It'll be fun. How long ago were asymmetric hems "in", anyway? God, that was a flash in the pan. Ohh, better hurry, we need to be at the school in 5 minutes.". May 25, 2013 at 4:2...

Lone Sock Productions: OhMyGodMail!
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/2013/02/ohmygodmail.html
Tuesday, February 5, 2013. I'd ordered them about a week ago and today when there was two blue parcel cards in my post office box I just assumed that, because I hadn't made it to the post office on friday, they'd accidentally just put one in both days. But no. As well as a little pink box of shoes, there was also a big brown box. And gold lame fabric! And it had come all the way from Thea. There was a card in there saying that she had thought of the gold fabric for my rock star-looking jacket. Baby Sized...

Lone Sock Productions: October 2014
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Because I forgot to post about these fuckers. This is a repost of my actual entry to the BQF. And the epilogue to this story here. If you want the middle bits of of the story, as well as a whole lot of swearing about postage companies and a touch of feminism, it's over where I posted my actual entry: my tumblr, saraquilts. Then I procrastinated for 4 months, only to face a mad rush to finish them in just over a week and get them shipped to be there on time. Yes,. This quilt now...

Lone Sock Productions: ah, 6am, we meet again...
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/2015/02/ah-6am-we-meet-again.html
Saturday, February 7, 2015. Ah, 6am, we meet again. I have two rules for life. I don't talk about them, really, because people always seem to want to argue on what should be a very personal, self beneficial and therefore eminently respectable belief, but hey, this tiny, quiet corner of the internet is mine, so I can do what I want with it. Two simple rules. Miss 70% of what's happening. I am not a very present. Knowing full well I will probably end up with indigestion and crying. My expectations are ...

Lone Sock Productions: Okay, kinda a little bit dead.
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/2014/09/okay-kinda-little-bit-dead.html
Monday, September 15, 2014. Okay, kinda a little bit dead. Remember back in MAY. When I said I was gunna make quilts? Remember how I said they had to be in America by September? When the labels didn’t arrive on their due date (the 26. Of last month), I worried. Then a couple of days before the solids were due to arrive (I was hoping for the 5. Not necessarily a good idea, but a doable thing. A thing that I could do. Possibly. And even considering what I already had done, I worked on these for over 60 hou...

Lone Sock Productions: A new quilt and too much other information.
http://lonesockproductions.blogspot.com/2013/01/a-new-quilt-and-too-much-other.html
Monday, January 21, 2013. A new quilt and too much other information. Once again, it's been a while between posts. But the combination of "ergh, I'm so much ache. Right now I could die. I'd better say my farewells" and "OMG OMG OMG I actually made. Have come together to inspire a post. Second things first; that's right, quilt. Real friends will violate the laws of space and time and find this shit out for you and travel back and let you know to hook up with Dreamboat instead, in order to avoid the kinds ...
