February 1st, 2009 - Stash Report Week #5
 Well, I haven’t used all that much fabric this week, but at least I haven’t bought any. Hurray for me!  On Monday I’mgoing to the quilt shop for my BOM and I have to be strong and not look at the fabric in cause I’m tempted to buy.
Fabric Added This Week: 0 yards
Fabric Added Year To Date: 0 yards
Fabric Used This Week: 4.25 yards
Fabric Used Year To Date: 20.35 yards
 This is what I’ve been working on.
Â
I have 7 of these plates completed. They are not appliqued down yet but soon will be.
Â
Â
Â
Â
Here are the 11 more to finish. Jelly Rolls are really easy collections of fabric. It’s really neat how pattern designers took old patterns and revised them for the use of jelly rolls. Much easier than the other way of constructng a Dresden Plate block.
Â
Well I’m off to do the weekly shopping and I have to go to the University bookstore on the other side of town for my son’s school supplies. Mothers’ jobs are never ending but I hope greatly appreciated.
Talk to you later.

Those Dresden plates will be very pretty – that Posh line is luscious!

Dresdens are my favorites. I never thought of using jelly rolls to make them.

Lots of paisleys in there, one of my favorite styles!

I love Dresden Plates. . the colors you are using are very pretty. I can’t wait to see the entire quilt, I’m sure it will be stunning.
You are doing very well with the Stash Busting. . .I hope you have strong will-power when you go for your BOM.
Have a wonderful day,
