Another week, another stash report. I cannot believe that it is June! This week, I've been focusing on finishing up some projects, so not a lot of stash usage to report. Just 1 yard out, for binding on 2 quilts
And I tried, really I did. I told myself I didn't need to go to the quilt store this weekend. I found some fabrics in my stash that were pretty close for the colour challenge. But they didn't wow me - and the palette wowed me.
Partway through the afternoon, inspiration struck and I decided on my project for this month. So, late afternoon I finally broke down and went on a trip to the store. And I found the perfect fabric for this challenge. Isn't it gorgeous? And some lovely batiks to match.
It all came home with me - 3.75 yards in, for this month's colour challenge. I'm going to try to use some will power and finish quilting/binding 3 quilts before I start this project. Wish me luck :)
Totals this year:
80 1/2 yards out, 132 1/2 yards in
Net for 2012: 52 yards in

ReplyDeleteKrista, the fabrics you've chosen are absolutely stunning! I can't wait to see what you make, so get busy and finish up those three quilts so we can see what you're making. I know it will be gorgeous. Sue
ReplyDeleteYes, you have to like your fabrics or you won't like the project. And what's the point if you don't like/enjoy it??!!
ReplyDeleteI'm watching the feather tutorial. I think there is a LOT I could learn.
