Sunday Stash Report October 9, 2011

Last week I did not post my Stash Report, so I have a little catching up to do.  No finishes to report- have too many projects that are in "progress" Did make a couple of purchases. Could not resist the Bali Pops below that were on sale at Batiks Plus. Not sure what I will do with them yet, but I am sure I have a pattern or two that they will be perfect in. Also had to pick up a little more red for the Ruby Slipper Project that is my October UFO.

Here are my updated numbers for this week

Used this week: 0 yards
Used YTD: 214.75 yards.
Purchased this week: 6.5 yards
Purchased YTD: 75.0 yards.
Net fabric used in 2011: 139.75 yards

2011 UFO Challange, October 1, 2011

Here is my September UFO finished!  This quilt is 94x94 so had to take the picture on the floor. This one is the next up to be quilted and binded to go on my bed. It is hard to believe that I have now completed 8 of 9 UFO's. Next up for October is #5-Ruby Slippers.  

Scrap Happy

Design Wall Monday September 26, 2011

This week I am working on the blocks for the Medallion Quilt. I have finished 4 of the blocks and will be  working on #5.  I have three more after #5 to catch up with this block of the month. The blocks are pretty easy to piece together and I really like the hand dyed fabrics. I pick up the next block from Memory Lane  on Oct 1.

See what everyone else is working on at Patchwork Times.

Sunday Stash Report September 25, 2011

Hard to believe it is Fall and September is almost over!  I thought I would share couple of Fall Quilts that are hanging in my house.

I finally get to report a finish- the Scrap Happy quilt is completed- will share pictures later this week for the September UFO finish.  Added a little to the stash this week- a great neutral that Sandi (kwiltnkats) picked up for me at Memory Lane. It is always nice to get a batik neutral-especially when it is on sale!

Have a great week and check out all the other reports at Patchwork Times.

Sunday Stash Report, September 18, 2011

With all the sewing I did this week in Mammoth, I still do not have a completion to report. I am getting close to finishing Scrap Happy- the top is about halfway finished. Just need a couple of more days off-but have to return to work tomorrow. :(

We did get in some nice hiking to Rainbow Falls and took a side trip to Yosemite. Beautiful time of year- the leaves are just barely starting to change.

Design Wall Monday September 12, 2011

This week I have more of a design table vs a design wall. Below is a big pile of stuff I am working on this week while up in Mammoth Lakes. The neutral and blue squares are ready to be sewn in the first step of the Jamestown Landing Quilt by Bonnie Hunter. This pattern was in Australian Homespun Magazine and will be published in Bonnie's next book.  My friend Sandi is making it in pinks-Check it out at kwiltnkats

The other pile are the rest of the blocks for Scrap Happy. There are 113 of them and I am almost finished.
Next step will be cutting the 256 sashing strips and then assembling the top.

Have a great week and don't forget to check out all the other design walls at Patchwork Times.

Stash Report Sunday September 11, 2011

As I remember the10th Anniversary of 9/11 and where I was that day, my thoughts and prayers go out to all those that lost loved ones on that horrifying day. Stay vigilant America and never forget!

 

 

 

This week I am headed up to Mammoth for a week of hiking, relaxing and hopefully getting a bit of sewing done. No Quilt Shops up here so will have no opportunity to add to the stash. :)

 

Nothing used last week but do have a couple of purchases to report. Found a really great neutral to use in a future project- you can never have enough neutrals. Also picked up the next three blocks and the rest of the fabrics for the center medallion on the Medallion Block of the Month Quilt from Memory Lane Quilt Shop. Hope to get all the blocks done this week.

 

 

 

 

So here are the updated numbers:

 

Used this week: 0 yards
Used YTD: 195.25 yards.
Purchased this week: 4.5 yards
Purchased YTD: 66.5 yards.
Net fabric used in 2011: 128.75 yards.
