I've had a really productive week, and lots to report today. I finsihed binding 4 little quilts (actually 9, but binding was already counted for 5 of the little ones). Finished putting the border on my guild mystery and made a backing for it. Quilted 2 quilts on the longarm and got binding cut for one of them. And made progress on another new/old project that's been sitting around for ages.
Here is the guild mystery and backing. I used all the partial strips I had left - plus 15 9-patches that were extra due to a typo in the instructions - to make the backing. The strip is intentionally off-center, even though that meant an additional 2 seams in the backing.
All those backings make my numbers look pretty good this week:
Binding - 2 quilties, 2 baby quilts - 1 yard.
backing - Kaffe quilt - 4 1/2 yards
binding - Kaffe quilt - 3/4 yards
backing - Regatta - 4 1/2 yards
Guild mystery quilt - 8 yards
backing - Guild mystery - 4 1/2 yards
Total out this week: 23 1/4 yards
Stash totals for the year:
91 yards in
146 yards out
Total:
55 yards out

Great outage! Your mystery quilt is very pretty
ReplyDeleteLove your mystery quilt. The colors are some of my favorites. Don't you just love pieced backings. I do and yours is great. Your used numbers this week are fantastic. Wish I could say the same.
ReplyDeleteNumbers look great! Did you or a guild member design the mystery? It's a very interesting design.
ReplyDeleteThe guild mystery quilt turned out beautifully. You did have a great week, excellent stash numbers!
ReplyDeleteGreat back! I always set mine off center too. Great numbers too :)
