Stash Report

We have been in Clearwater the past few days on a mini vacation.  This has been one of the most relaxing times we've had in a long while, so much so that we extended our stay another night!  We visited Rainbow's End in Dunedin and I slipped off the wagon and bought some yummy fabrics.  And then we stopped at Country Bears and Quilts in Clearwater and once again I slipped off and bought more fabric and a pattern!  Since I left my camera cord at home you will have to wait for pictures to be posted after we get home.  Also did some sightseeing and will share those pictures later on as well.  I have done some knitting while Jim has had to field a few work issues. 

So here's my report for this week:

Used this Week: 0 yards
Used year to Date: 22 yards

Added this Week: 0 yards
Added Year to Date: 10 1/2 yards

Net Used for 2010: 11 1/2 yards

Design Wall Monday/Late Stash Report

First for those that have asked the picture of the whirlpool was  from Minnesota River flooding

Every Monday Judy over at Patchwork Times has Design Wall Monday.  We are to share what is on our wall that we are working on.  Well this week I have 1 on my wall, 1 on the floor and 1 on the sewing table.  I am hoping to get 2 of these into tops this week. 

This is a log cabin that I am laying out as a star and is on the floor wall.  I need to make 2 more blocks and then the assemblying can start.  Also think I have enough strips cut to make the 2 blocks!


This is called Nutcracker Wreath and was in the 2003 Quilting for Christmas Magazine and is on the sewing table.  I have everything cut, 1 block completed and the remainer of the blocks are in various stages of assembly.


And well this one we have been looking at for a long time on the design wall, I am so ready for it to disappear!

Used year to Date: 20 1/4 yards
