No purchases added this week but there has been quite a bit of sewing in short bursts. I've been plugging away on my Allietare mystery quilt (Bonnie Hunter) and I dug into my scrap bins for blues to begin the RSC16 (http://super scrappy.blogspot.com ), the Rainbow Scrap Challenge hosted by SoScrappy. This first block is called Twinkle Star.
Two new pillowcases are the only actual finishes, but they do count towards stash busting.
In this week: 0 yds
In this year: 0 yds
Out this week: 2 yds
Out this year: 2 yds
Last year I ended the year having used 198 yards of fabric. That number actually shocked me. The stash won by a few yards, but I still look at this number as a positive thing. Maybe I can do even better in 2015.
I'm also linking up to http://quiltingismorefunthanhousework.blogspot.com/ for the Oh Scrap! Post this week.

Your Twinkle Star is gorgeous: the fabrics are perfect. Are you going to make a column quilt like SoScrappy?
Beautiful twinkle star! Love the blues you have chosen.
Love how your twinkle star turned out! You used such pretty blue fabrics. Good work on using up so much stash. All put to great use I am sure.
After seeing your star I'm tempted to make it. It's very attractive!
That is a beautiful star block! Such pretty blues!
I love your star. Great blues! Congrats!! on using so much stash!
I love your twinkle block. I think I am going to make the sampler too. That soft blue is really pretty. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
love the star block- it is different.
What a beautiful block Sara! I might have to make one or two of those!!
The Twinkle Star was one of my favorites from the 2015 Block Lotto. (And, lucky me, I was one of that month's winners.) I have lots of ideas for RSC 2016 but haven't settle on one yet.
Love this classic blue and white.
