I realized this morning that the last stash report I made was April 24 - a whole month ago! I've done a bit of sewing since then.
These 2 blocks are Centauris for May in our Saturday Sampler. The first one is my bonus block to enter into a drawing to hopefully win all of the bonus blocks. This month's them is batiks and I went for bright ones.
The second block is made with the Saturday Sampler fabrics, which are an over-dyed muslin. Very crisp fabric that sews like a dream. I don't usually go for these dusty colors but I have to leave my comfort zone once in awhile.
Over the past month I did finish a quilt top (elephants in 30s fabrics) and a table runner (Easter Sunrise). I've made a TON of blocks of various sizes that will have to be added in later to the stash used. And I've bought some background, sashing, and border fabrics to finish up some other projects.
So here is the stash report for the past 2 weeks.
In this month: 6 yds
In this year: 56 yds
Out this month: 5 yds
Out this year: 53 yds
The stash is leading but not by very much. And I'm optimistic that I'll be bumping up those "out" numbers this summer since I won't be working full time. I have some major sewing plans.
Wow, your stash numbers look great - keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteWow! Your batik block just sings! I love your fabrics in that one. I'm not usually into the dusty colors, either, but your second block is beautiful.
