stash report June 21, 2026

My Granddaughter has been living with us for 3 years while she was going to Indiana U. We loved having her. She was in my "nice" fabric room. She filled the room with her stuff, so, I haven't been able to get to my fabric for 3 years. Now, that she has moved out, I can even open the doors. I have enjoyed getting reacquainted with my fabric. The blessing is that there was nobody busily messing it up, like I have been doing in the not "nice" fabric room. haha

light scraps week 3

 This week I worked on an additional pink candy chains. I have orange left to do.

I finished another batch of two bits  blocks. I am more than half way done.

I made strip sets for stashbuster and subcut them into 2 1/2 inch rows. I seem to have more green strips cut than any other color. I am not sure how to even out the colors for a more scrappy look.

I cut some light centered rolling windmills. I used a pile of floral fabrics for the centers and dark for the outsides.

stash report June 14, 2026

I dug around to find a fabric in my stash that will be perfect for the back for blue skies. I am ready to quilt it this week, or at least put it on the frame.

light scrap projects week 2

As I mentioned earlier this month, I am catching up candy chains, after a recount of what I needed. I  made a paler red and a sweet green.

I have made and trimmed 20 two bits  blocks. I tried these at open sew, but, I had to take way to many bags of strips. And I made a massive mess. It was embarrassing. I am sewing them here at home. I am used to making a mess here. haha   I am trying to use up some "ugly" neutrals and short pieces.

I worked on building more sets of 5 for stashbuster.

flying home finish

 Flying home is a finish. I made  this in Florida I took the blocks with me and worked on them while we were there. I bought the fabric for the borders while I was there, too. This project has a rascally past. Now you see it now you don't. I feel like I have been chasing these blocks for a long time. I started it as part of the rainbow scrap challenge in 2019. When I looked for it the next year, I couldn't find it. In an unrelated cleaning, There they were. I bundled them up and put them in the ufo closet. When I wanted to work on it as a ufo, I couldn't find it. Last year, I was looking for another ufo, and found them making friends... in the wrong box. and tada it's done. It really was flying home.

60 x 75 = 14 yards

I couldn't resist adding a backing with airplanes

 I needed fabric for binding. I found this buried in the red tote. I think it is going to be just right. We have a new quilt store, that I visited this week, with a friend. My sewing room is bigger than this very cute shop. It has been a while since I have investigated a quilt shop. I couldn't believe the prices. It's a good thing I have a fabric investment portfolio.

light scrap projects week 1

This month for the rainbow scrap challenge, we are working to use the light and pastel colors we didn't use so far this year.

I did a recalculation for candy chains,  and decided I need one more of most of the colors. Here is a catch up of blue. My other projects have more intense colors.

  

I have been working on Two bits pattern from oh scrap,

  using  a swap batch of friendship stars and low volume scrappy neutrals. I think it is light enough to be my older ufo project this month. I have decided to put ditch lilies away again for another time.
