Lots and lots of sewing went on this week. I finished 2 tops and loaded one on the long arm.
I decided earlier this week to make a quick twister top, to get a break from my checkerboard quilt. Of course, picking a new quilt which was made up of a bunch of 5" squares did not exactly make a big change from sewing a bunch of 6" squares together :)
Apparently I should have take a photo earlier, because I see now areas where I would have liked to swap some blocks around. Oh well. I managed to use up a pile of 5" charm squares I've had sitting around for 2 years.
In any event, I did it. I pulled out my new (well, bought in February but never used) Twister ruler and made myself a Christmas quilt. One more white border to put on and it is done.
Used this week:
2 yards - baby quilt
11 yards - checkerboard
1 3/4 yards - christmas wreath
Total: 14 3/4 yards out
Stash usage this year:
134 3/4 yards out

Very cute quilt Krista! I have a twister sitting on my sewing table - maybe I should get started - looks like fun. Your wreath came out swell.
