I couldn't resist a mystery selvedge bundle from missourri star. I was not disappointed. It was so fun to see all the goodies. I think most of them are at least 1 1/2 inch wide.
stash report June 4, 2023
fabric added: 0 yards
126 1/ 2 yards used more than bought
I sewed 5 days last week.
I have a goal to add one strip of wool to my village rug everyday. Some days I add more. Sundays, I spend real time on it, and make a little more progress. I mentioned before that I am having trouble repeating the dye color for the background, so I am hooking a little everywhere on the background. I am moving around the rug and repeating the same spots to fill the background a little more.
I have another section of my village rug to work on to the edge. This is slow going with such a big border. I wish I had more progress each week to show, but, slow and steady....

Such colorful, pretty fabrics in that selvage bundle. I can see your progress on your rug.
ReplyDeleteSlow and steady wins the race, your edging is progressing nicely
ReplyDeleteYou had a good week on the stitching and stash busting fronts. It always seems like a big project takes forever, but you've done a great job of chipping away at that rug background. Happy stitching this week.
ReplyDeleteLove your selvedge bundle. I have some as well from my local quilt shop. What will you do with yours? I’m not sure how I’ll use mine.
ReplyDeleteYour rug is coming along nicely! Yes, slow and steady!
One thread or strip a week makes great slow progress over time! Thanks for linking up to Slow Sunday Stitching!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bundle, you have pretty strips in it! Great progress on the rug, the border is coming along nicely!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing, and linking up ;)
What a cute selvage pack! And slow and steady seems to be winning the race with your Village rug. I was just thinking how close to done you seem. Love that little red bird!
