Week 5 - 2011 Stash Report

My stash report is more for the past 3 weeks and I am very happy to say that I have NOT bought any fabric for the month of January.  Those sales sure tried to lure me in, I added things to my cart online and then thought about and deleted my cart!  Now let's see if I can be as good in February.  Can you believe Tuesday will be the 1st of Feb already where did January go?  I was able to finish up my scrappy blocks, get all my sashing cut for the squishie quilt and some sewn on, picked out the blue/white swap blocks and made them into a top and the borders are on and cut and stitched on the binding for the row robin I participated in a few years ago.

Week 2 2011 Stash Report

Off to a great start for this round of stash busting....I didn't get any sewing done last week, however I did find sashing fabric for my squishie quilt and found a jelly roll that I can use for the Postage Stamp project.  This week I will work on sashing blocks and finding a coc to use with the jelly roll.  Will also use up some scraps for some scrappy blocks I am swapping on Quilting Around the World.  Good use for scrap usage and possibly a CASA quilt.

So without further ado I bring you my report!

Design Wall Monday Jan 3

Currently on my design wall is the 2001 Squishie Swap blocks.  Today will involve ironing and cutting of the sashing.  Hopefully I will be able to work on a couple blocks today. This poor UFO has been hanging around since 2001 and is for our bed.  I so want it done!  You can see more design walls at PatchworkTimes  All the blocks have the same fabric in them and are all made by different people from all over.  Sandy just completed hers, it is very pretty!  Great job Sandy!

Here is the layout and the sashing fabric.
