Sunday Stash Report

 A finish this week with Stars and Stripes completed. This cute little quilt was a fabric and pattern recieved in Fat Quarter shop's Liberty Box back in July 2021. It finishes at 27x27. Will be a perfect table topper for our dining room table.

Stars and Stripes

These arrived this week from Sandi over at Kwiltnkats. Black and whites for a future project and some fun purple squares. I dont have a lot of purples in my stash so this will be a great addition.

Updated numbers for the stash:

Used this week: 4 yards.

Used YTD: 50 yards.

Purchased this week: 0 yards.

Purchased YTD:  42 yards.

Net Fabric Used YTD: 8 yards.

Enjoy your week!

Design Wall Monday

On the design wall this week is a small quilt called Stars and Stripes. This was from the Libery box purchased from Fat Quarter Shop last summer and is one of my UFO's. After working on two Bonnie Hunter quilts, it was time for something smaller and simpler!

On the longarm this week is Rododendron Trail.

We are looking forward to some rain on Tuesday and Wednesday. Our desert here can really use it.

Have a great rest of the week.

 Finsihed this week was a small baby quilt that will be a charity donation. All fabrics were used from my stash and leftover from a previous project.

Baby Quilt

I attended Quiltcon on Saturday and enjoyed the show and vendors, even though I am a more traditional quilter. Definetly some interesting quilts. Below are some of my favorites.

Minature

Beautiful quilting on this one.

Loved this red one.

I did a little damage to the stash with the purchase of the white with black novelty prints below. I just couldn't pass them up!

Design Wall Monday

 

This week I am getting started on Sugar Sand Beach, another UFO for 2022. 

Also in the works this week will be cutting 10.5" squares for a couple of backings that are needed. 

On the longarm is a Lonestar quilt for Sandi. This one is all hand pieced and has been a bit of a challenge with all the fullness.

Thursday is the start of Quiltcon, here in Pheonix. This is more of a modern quilt show and is usually in a different city each year.  I am hoping to attend either Thursday or Friday.

Enjoy your week!

 A finish this week! 

Scrappy Blues (aka Narragansett Blues) is finsihed. This is my second UFO for 2022.

This quilt was started in 2022 as a leader/ender project. I had made all the 4 patches, and just needed to put it all together.

Autumn Love Block 3

Also prepped this week was Block #3 for Autumn Love. Have some hand stitching to keep me busy this week. No Purchases this week and finally in the black. More finishes to come!

Used this week: 15 yards.

Used YTD: 41 yards.

Purchased this week: 0 yards.

Purchased YTD:  39 yards.

Net Fabric Used YTD: 2 yards.

Design Wall

 This week on my Design wall is still N. Blues (for short). I am still working on the center of the quilt and hope to complete this week. The eight rows on the right side still need to be sewn together. There are only two more rows after that.

Also ready for some hand stitching is the second block of Autumn Love. I am hoping to find some stitching time in evenings this week while we are watching TV.\

Autumn Love Block 2

We are also off to the WM Golf Tournament on Thursday and Friday. It is a super fun event but way too crowded to go on Saturday and Sunday. It is nice to see events getting back to normal.

Enjoy the rest of the week!

Sunday Stash Report

No finishes to report this week, just works in progress. Narragansett Blues is in rows on my design wall with much sewing ahead. This is about half of the center below.

Prepped this week was the first of the Autumn Love Blocks. I will be working on this as a block of the month, and this one is for January. Have February almost prepped for sewing down the applique.

Crow and Pumpkin Block

This week a couple of the Ladies from my Tuesday sewing group, decided to go to lunch and hit a few of the quilt shops in the south, Mad B's,  Quilters Oasis, and Mulqueen's. These were about an hour away from my house, and probably will not get to them very often. I found a few more white with blacks and a couple more fabrics for future project.

Black and Orange doe for a halloween quilt.

More White with Black

Valentines project.

More shopping opportunities will be coming up at Quiltcon starting on Feb 16th. The stash is not going in the right direction! Enjoy your week.
