That is amazing! Love, love, love it!

I`m working at SSSS-quilt project, too. My star is partly paper foundation pieced and not quite ready yet, but here is a peak with the blue (possible) back of the quilt (and the cat, who approved the work). There will be something besides the star in front, but not sure what yet (first rule perhaps). My work tends to evolve along the way (like the quiltwork, that is my avatar)

Thank you! After much cursing, I have now a working set of templates. I´ll show you the results when I´m finished.
Looking at your picture, your quilt-in-progress is awesome, too! Please keep us updated!

Maybe we should rename the topic to "Textile Crafters' Club"?
Or perhaps,
"Fiber Wranglers' Association"?
:)

I second that! :)

I would rename it, but after those posts were added from other threads I'm no longer the creator of this thread so I can't rename it anymore (I think). Would someone with the power to do so please change the thread name? I like the idea of changing " yarncrafters" to "textile crafters".

Kex is now the owner of record because I merged in some of her early posts.

I can also "rename" by moving this whole thread elsewhere on the forum, then bringing it back.

Should I put up a poll about desired names first?

So, do we offer up our suggestions first, before the poll goes up? I mean, the poll has to have a few options in it, right?

I was going to collect prior suggestions from the thread and plug in some of my own....

but yes, out-and-out soliciting suggestions would be good, thanks for reminding me!   :)

Everybody:  If you have an idea for a thread name (a simple one), post it here.  I'll organize them all into a poll for organized voting.  Thanks!

YES PLEASE!

Or perhaps "SSSS Handicrafts Group"? That sounds a little lackluster, but I like the idea of having "handicrafts" in the title since it opens the group for a wider array of awesome projects outside of yarncraft specifically.

I like this, but with the minor change of adding ARTD since this thread is not exclusively for SSSS.

how about "MINNIONS' MOST BEST HANDICRAFT"? (though it does lose a bit the part where it must be ARTD/SSSS related)

I like this! Maybe "Minnions´most best fandom-handicraft"? Then we would get the connection to ARTD/SSSS, I think.

Perhaps fandomcraft?

Also, I will eventually be sewing the uniforms of Emil, Lalli, Sigrun, and Braidy (not all by my own ahhahahahaha no) and I was wondering if the progress and process would have a place here?

I actually recommend the Cosplay thread, if only because it's more specific. 

Of course, if you're discussing a sewing/other textile technique and want input from this thread's readers, go for it.  There's not a bright line dividing these two topics (as we saw from Laufey's gorgeous Braidypeysa).

And then for something completely different: guess what I finally finished! Léttlopi is much thinner yarn than Álafoss lopi so this one's not going to be such a breeze as the Braidypeysa, but on the upside it doesn't require weightlifting a crazy amount of wool on two needles.

After these two projects all I can say is that Minna is really good at designing knitwear and that this sweater will be worn for both cosplay and just general sweater-wearing purposes because of that. Er... guess I better warn you though that I'm actually a minisize human and nowhere near tall enough to actually pull off a proper Sigrun cosplay but I can always dream... I'll write down the patterns and instructions like with the previous project and post them here. :)

(Same picture can be found larger here if you want a closer look at the pattern, or my today-36 year old mug.)
