Stash Report

 

This was one of the more difficult paper pieced blocks from Dear Hannah. Blocks finish at 4.5", so you can imagine how tiny the pieces were. I think it turned out pretty good, but it did take a couple of hours just for this one block. Yes, a couple of hours! Only 93 pieces!!!!

Nothing added to the stash this week and nothing finished. I will be heading out on a short Birthday trip later this week, so may have an opportunity to hit a few quilt shops on the way.

Used this week: 0 yards.

Used YTD: 29 yards.

Purchased this week: 0 yards.

Purchased YTD: 17 yards.

Net Fabric Used YTD: 24 yards.

Have a great week!

Yesterday at our chapter meeting we celebrated 40 years of Sunrise Stitchers. There was a slide show of past events, a wonderful Lunch and cake. Also shared were all the projects made from BOM's, workshops and challenges during the past 40 years. I shared the tulip quilt below, from blocks that I won a few years ago.

We were all given this cute pin as a party favor.

This week I am working on Dear Hannah Blocks. Below are some of the applique blocks prepped and ready for hand sewing. They will be a take along on an upcoming trip.

More to come...... Happy Sewing!

Happy April!

This week I have pulled out my Dear Hannah and will start prepping more of the applique blocks for our future travels. I need to have something to work on while in the car and during those times when we are just sitting around. Our first tip will be in mid April and we are headed up to Greer AZ for a couple of days.

Here is a fast quilt that I will be working on today at my sewing group. Thank you Sandi!

Happy Sewing!

Stash Report

 

Last week I was visiting my Mom for her 87th birthday in Sacramento, so no posts and no sewing was done. I had a great time catching up with family and celebrating my Mom.

 A small finish this week with the Tulip Quilt. The blocks were from a Sunrise BOM challenge and I made this small wallhanging. I will be sharing it at our meeting in April, when we celebrate our 40th anniversary as a chapter.

Purchased this week was this cute cat fabric that will be the backing for the Kitten Love quilt. I am almost finished with putting the top together. I am back in action this week and hope to have the tulips quilted and the Kitten Quilt done.

Used this week: 3 yards.

Used YTD: 29 yards.

Purchased this week: 4 yards.

Purchased YTD: 17 yards.

Net Fabric Used YTD: 12 yards.

Have a great week!

Above are Tulip blocks that I won from Sunrise Stitchers a couple of years ago. Sunrise Stitchers will be celebrating its 40th Birthday in at our April meeting, and we have been asked to bring any finished projects that were done from Challenges, BOM, ect, to share. So I am going to try to get a little quilt or table runner made from these blocks.

I also worked on more of the couthouse blocks at my sewing group yesterday and hope to get them all put together and quilt top ready for quilting.

Happy Sewing!
