Shop Modern Mods
Argenta Sugden
I snapped a few pictures of it back in January before I sent it off for it's glam squad treatment in Missouri in preparation for the Spring issue.
I love taking traditional quilt blocks and giving them a modern twist. I've loved Sherri and Chelsi's Desert Bloom collection since I first saw it previewed last spring. I also love the way those colors just pop off that solid navy blue.
I am the WORST at coming up with names for my quilts. This quilt is based on the traditional Susannah block and since I decided to blow it up huge, the quilt is called Susannah on Steroids. (Which I'm worried now about offending someone. In no way do I condone illegal steroid use. Even for quilt blocks.) So that became the working title as the quilt was in production, with every intention of coming up with a better name. And then I got the preview of the finished magazine last week and thought, "Whoops! I never changed the name!" (Insert open-eye-emoji here.)
Here's a shot of the back. I went with a Bella Solids Mustard. I love the way it shows off the quilting design. This was done by Melissa of Sew Shabby Quilting - the pattern is called Yodel and it's become one of my favorites. The perfect compliment to a modern-looking quilt design and gives the quilt lots of texture.
And here it is on the cover. (eek!) That's pretty cool! This issue of Mod Block is available here. Watch for it in your local quilt shop that carries Mod Block. Or you can order one online directly from Missouri Star Quilt Company. It's a great issue! There are some beautiful modern quilt patterns included by artists such as Heather Jones, the Simple Simon girls, Scott from Blue Nickel Studios, and Becca Bryan.
It's a great quilt, and as the saying goes, "A rose by any other name...." I really like the dark blue background. It gives the design depth and weight, but feels softer and more welcoming than black. Congratulations on the cover!
Congratulations on the magazine cover! I LOVE this quilt.....I really wish I could come up with color combinations like you do. I do love me some navy and those colors just pop off the quilt! This quilt is absolutely beautiful!
Amy - this is gorgeous and beautiful all rolled into one. Absolutely love it! Congratulations on having it on the cover of the magazine - how wonderful! Just love the quilting on it - beautiful design and just adds to the whole quilt!!
Love your quilt, I have made many....what navy did you use for back ground, I am going to order some dessert bloom.....what works best jelly roll, fatquarters, Thanks, just waiting for my book to come

Capture the stadium lighting look for your sports photography without the need to rent expensive HMI lights or composite in post-processing. Pro Light Mods allow you to easily achieve the stadium lighting setup in-camera for a professional and impressive look.
With Pro Light Mods' softbox modifiers, achieving a super-modern background light for a striking and impressive look is easier than ever. These modifiers can transform your softbox into a Hollywood-style light bank, perfect for fashion shoots, Instagram content, and video productions.
Are you a senior portrait or wedding photographer looking to add a unique and impressive touch to your photos? These mods are perfect for senior portrait sessions, allowing you to offer your clients a stadium lighting setup that will make their shots stand out from the rest. Wedding photographers can use mods for stunning backgrounds during the first dance and other special moments.
Pro Light Mods are designed to fit the Westcott Rapid Box Switch and other third-party softboxes. Pair them with a strobe or constant light for dramatic backlighting in your next photo or video shoot.
Pro Light Mods Mini reflector covers turn your metal reflectors into dynamic set pieces, creating background effects that resemble small stage lights or stadium lighting. They give your strobe or LED lights a new purpose with minimal effort.
These light modifiers offer incredible flexibility, allowing you to experiment with multiple looks by rotating your softbox, adding color gels, or using artificial smoke. Put them side-by-side and pair with other mod sizes for more dynamic looks.
Well it's been a while but I'm back! I have been eagerly awaiting access to the Enfusion engine so I could start work on a new iteration of the "Overthrow" series. This time it'll be bigger, better, and have way more less bugs.
No idea what Overthrow is? Just check out the Original Arma 3 Mod, this video of Spiffing Brit getting rich selling bananas or one of the many forks/versions that have come since (shouts out to Overthrow Plus and Overthrow WW2!)
Existing Features:
I am aiming for this version to be completely and easily customizable and extendable via the Enfusion Workbench, so you can make and release your own special snowflake version of Overthrow on any map with any modded assets you want and put it on the workshop just by setting it as a dependancy, dragging in some entities and then configuring them as you see fit.
Note that Reforger is still missing a lot of things that a complete Overthrow experience will need (ie AI Driving, aircraft, civilians etc) but we hope that BI will provide these in good time, and there's a lot to do in the meantime ?
Hope to see you all wanted and running over soldiers to steal their gear in Everon real soon..
Glad to see Overthrow back!
I played it a bit with a friend and we liked it so far.
A few weird bugs I have discovered:
- There are some ammo boxes in Morton with free weapons (AK-74 and a handgun). I am not sure where they are exactly, since I was able to access them through inventory while being in a fairly large area (hundreds of meters!).
- I wasn't able to figure out where the items are transferred once you purchase them in a shop (I tried gun shop and general shop so far). The money is withdrawn, but I can't see the items in my inventory.
Im glad that saving is working now, and building is available too, REFORGER lacks good SP content and Overthrow and Eden Sniper Stories are a blast! ?
Modded weapons will be available in the future (on the resistance shops) or just vanilla? (I mean, does the script detects and adds modded content listed as INDEP weapons like the AK12, Thompson, SIG 17 pistols - which are available in all 3 factions arsenal boxes or at least Vz58 rifles etc)
Cheers!

Dev Report #5
Not going to tag everyone in this update as there isnt much to say. But just a quick update as to how everything is going.
At this point the mod is in a pretty stable state (thanks to everyone for reporting bugs!) and is somewhat playable for maybe a few hours, but it's also approaching the limit of what can be done with the current state of content in Arma Reforger. In order for Overthrow to move well into the mid-game and beyond there are some key things missing from the platform:
Mods can sort of solve some of these missing items but we want Overthrow to work completely on a vanilla install for a lot of reasons.
So for the near future I will be slowly adding some other small features that come to mind as well as fixing any other bugs that come up, but will need to wait for Bohemia to address some of the gaps mentioned above before we can really push things to the next level.
The original Overthrow in Arma 3 would detect and try to use modded weapons but this is much less possible with the new Enfusion engine. As far as I know there is no way to do a blind detection of modded content currently, and it was also a giant pain to maintain that kind of code in the old overthrow and keep everyone happy with their own special collection of weapon mods and provide a balanced experience.
However.. it is possible to mod any weapons or items you want into Overthrow yourself using the Reforger Workbench and its actually really easy to do. We do plan to release "compatibility mods" for the most popular mods/collections (ie RHS, ACE or whatever else is created for Reforger/Arma 4).
We also invite anyone to release compatibility mods themselves for whatever items or weapons they want. We will concentrate on the vanilla experience as a marker for balance and implementation.
Jump on our discord and hit us up in #reforger-support. I'll be happy to guide anyone on how to mod Overthrow.
Few more updates this week. The last for a little while as I'm hoping to move us over to Arkensor's Persistence Framework if that becomes available soon.
