January 26th, 2014 - The Stash Week # 4
Here it is , week 4 and I think I’m finally on the right track. Use up that stash! I started pulling reds to make the blocks for the Winter Wonderland stitchery from Crabapple Hill. I can’t wait to get these last 2 redwork blocks done and then start on the pieced blocks. I’m going to work on them with my sister at the retreat at the end of February. Can’t wait!
Fabric used this week: 4.4 yds
Fabric used YTD: 10.64 yds
Fabric added YTD: 0 yds (got to love that)
Net fabric busted: 10.24 yds
I hope I can keep this up. I’m really liking the way my quilting has been turning out. No more just stitching in the ditch and straight-line quilting for me. All I can think of is ‘ what could I do with a long-arm machine?’. One day I’ll be able to get one. But for now it’s practice, practice, practice and I’m liking it!
