We try to do one quilt a quarter to donate through our guild. I was happy to donate all the fabrics this time.
I'm sewing it as a leader-ender and hope to finish the top by the end of the week. The best part is I have some leftovers of the fabric to use for the backing so it will be finished this month.
Before Christmas I had the honor of quilting this wonderful quilt. My customer was giving it as wedding gift. I love how sophisticated it looks. It is a classic Storm at Sea combined with Snails Trail.
Here's a close up of the quilting pattern, Apricot Moon. I used So Fine thread #504, a very light gray.
On to January's stash report. Luckily it was only a little addition.
2022 | Fabric In Month | Fabric In Year | Fabric Out Month | Fabric Out Year | Total In or Out Year |
Jan | 9.5 | 9.5 | 8.25 | 8.25 | -1.25 |
I was sure I would have a big gain of fabric this month having bought 9 yards on Jan.2. But I surprised myself finishing 2 small quilts and the table runner. It won't take long before I'm actually using more fabric than I'm bringing in. (Or at least I hope it will be fast.)
Spend some time surfing the web this weekend... you can use these links as your jumping off point.
Happy Quilting All! Bonnie
I didn't realize that is a Storm at Sea pattern - I thought it was a Snail's Trail? Neat quilt

ReplyDeleteThat Storm at Sea is gorgeous! The baby quilt is bright and fun. A good mix of projects to keep you interested.

ReplyDeleteLove the baby quilt and the fabrics. What a pretty Storm at Sea quilt, and your quilting is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWe all have a lot of older fabric, good to use some up, they still keep us warm same as new ones🥰
ReplyDeleteWhat an elegant wedding quilt! The newlyweds will certainly treasure it. I like the checkered (patch) fabric in the baby quilt. It adds pops of color and interest to the simple design.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun top in progress!
ReplyDeleteand what an amazing wedding quilt! Wow!
Love the soft neutrals for the SAS/ST. (I'm hooked on Wordle so I see five-letter combinations everywhere. STASS?)
