Stash Report

I had a pretty productive week -

even though it doesn't really show in my stash report ;-(

First I quilted and bound Music Bloom (backing was already counted) 

to meet my challenge for this week. Photos will be on DWM.

And then I pulled the circle baby top from my pile

and quilted & bound this one, too.

For a total usage of 3 whooping yards.

Stash Report Week 42 / 2010:

Fabric used this week: 3 yrds
Fabric used year-to-date: 180.4 yrds
Fabric added this week: 0 yrds
Fabric added year-to-date: 128.4 yrds
Net used in 2010: 52 yrds
Look at that: I finally hit the 50 yard line!
Please check out other stash reports and hop over to Judy's blog!

With all the quilting and sewing and me not feeling 100%, my fitness plan did not work out. I had a few early nights which didn't help either. 2 walks is all I fit in - next week will hopefully be better (though we'll have meetings at work all week)...
Now I am off to work on a wedding quilt that needs to be done by December 4th - since you just never know who lurks around my blog ;-) it will be kept secret and pictures will be posted after the event...
See you tomorrow at DWM,
Barb

Design Wall Monday

My Design wall may not look much different than last week -

but I have been sewing the lay-outs together to finish 2 quilt tops.

First up Baby Circles Top

Next comes Fishing Strippie:

And there are 2 ongoing projects:

Music Bloom - still as blocks only;

goal this week is to sew the top together!

And last but not least:

Fishing Circles

Hopefully I can get the blocks sewn into rows this week.

This is it from my end -

please go to Judy's blog and check other design walls!

Judy is holding a Quilt-Along starting on September 14th,

and if I finish my 2 tops,

I would love to join.

This is my incentive to get sewing!

So I better be quick...

Have a great week,

Barb

Design Wall Monday

Another Design Wall Monday and I have a finished top to show!

Here is my jelly roll quilt along top in Plume fabric

with a partial piano key border:

I am still cleaning up after the 70 Circles quilt.

Leftovers and a few kid fabrics ended up in this baby quilt;

nothing sewn yet - just a lay-out of about 35" square.

And I finally took care of the lighthouse / ship fabric, 

that has been 'sailing around' for far too long... 

I added some strips - have to play around some more;

losely following Mary's "Quick Strippie".

Well, that should give me

enough mindless sewing for the week ahead!

It works better for me if I have things prepared

and just commit to a few strips or circles a day.

Otherwise I would never get anything sewn...

They may not be sophisticated tops/ quilts,

but they work for me :-)

and they help my stash control / report!

Please go to Judy's blog and check out other design walls.

Enjoy your week,

Barb
