Sunday Stash Report



Happy last day of April- the year is flying by!

Nothing finished this week, but I did so some prepping. Above is block #2 for Vintage Valentine all prepped and ready for hand sewing. This week I will prep #3 to be all caught up.


Also ready for sewing, is the first of two quilts for my grandnieces. Hope to make some progress on this one.

Also cut out this week were some of my 2.5" strips for a crooked courthouse step charity project. I hope to make a couple of these this year to use up my overflowing stash of 2.5" strips. I will take this on Tuesday to my sewing group to work on.

Nothing added to the stash this week, so no change in the numbers.

Used this week: 0 yards.
Used YTD: 85 yards.
Purchased this week: 0 yards.
Purchased YTD: 16 yards.
Net Fabric Used YTD: 69 yards.

Hope you have a great week!

Design Wall

After my retreat last week, I have added a few more blocks to my Dear Hannah. I will be finishing up on more applique blocks this week to fill in some of the holes. This will be a work in progress for awhile, still have a lot of blocks to go.

 I was looking for a couple of easier projects this week, so I will be starting on quilts for my grandniece's, Charlotte and Maize. The first one will be this simple quilt out of Lori Holt fabrics. I will be cutting this one out, along with cutting out a crooked courthouse steps for charity. Always a lot to keep me busy. How about you?

My finished blocks.

Back home from San Antonio, after a great time in Texas. It always goes by too fast. I was able to finish 20 more blocks above for my Dear Hannah quilt. Still have many more to go. It is definately a journey!

A trip to Quilt Haus while in San Antonio, blew the fabric diet! I found this cute pin fabric, some more grunge, balarina's for a quilt for my grandniece, and some hard to find shirtings.




We all had a great time in Texas and can't wait for next year!

This week I am working on an undercover project as gifts for all the ladies at our upcoming retreat. Check back later this month and I will share what I have made.


First up on the Longarm this week are some placemats that Sandi made in a workshop. They turned out great and will be quilted with a halloween design. Next up will be Sandi's challenge quilt for Sunshine Quilt Guild. I will not be sharing this, cause it is underwraps until May!

Have a great week!
