stash report July 19 , 2026

 I have restarted an older ufo kit from editya sitar. The fabrics are beautiful. The pattern is complex. I should have started 10 years ago. haha I worked on strip sets at Saturday open sew.


 stash report July 19 , 2026

fabric added this week: 0 yards 

 fabric added year to date for 2026:  16 1/2 yards  

fabric used this week:  10 yards  baby quilt is finished

46 x 54 = 10 yards
fabric used year to date for 2026:  79 yards

I have used  77 1/2  yards more than I have added. 

I sewed 4 days last week. 

I am working on my last block for my applique project - across the wide missourri- I have the cabin base in  place with 2 rows of chinking. It's getting warmer in the little cabin.


I have made a little progress on my stars and stripes rug. I am using a smaller frame to carry to guild each week. I have to move it more often. 

All the stars are done. I tried the blue wool that came with kit. I decidided it is too thin and hard to work. I will search through my stash for a better grade wool.

I decided to take a bag of scraps with me to sew group. I was not in the mood to take my sewing machine. This bag was given to me by another quilter. Everything was a delightful mystery.


I cut my usual sizes, set aside smaller pieces to make 1 1/2 inch hsts, and  kept some larger pieces together that ere coordinates. In the end, it weighed nearly 2 pounds. I hade made 6 yards of useable fabric.

I took my last block for my applique project - across the wide missourri- to Friday sew and started tracing and cutting. I have done a cabin before and I am not looking forward to that part, so I will do it first.


While I was working on my huge Christmas in new England rug hooking project. I did not want to carry it back and forth to guild every week. The huge rug weighs a ton. I found this topically relevant rug kit in my stash, and, decided to take it back and forth with me to guild. It weighs less and is easily folded and stored in a smaller bag. The strips came already cut. No thinking, just hooking needed. It wasn't a high priority. But, is is convenient.
