Hum -- here it is the 26th and I haven't figured out my stats for April. So, I sat down and added them up. I made one quilt from start to finish, Synergy My Way. I quilted and bound two quilts, Bright Boxes and Glorified 9 Patch. I never add my fabric used until the top is quilted and bound. It encourages me to finish my quilts rather than leave them as tops. Finishing 3 quilts certainly has helped my stash busting statistics this month. In fact, I used more fabric than I bought in April. Here's what it looks like.

I realized this is the first month this year where my year-to-date stats show more fabric used than brought in. Whopee!
The following quilts are from the Faithful Circle Quilt Show last weekend. These quilts were made for the charity challenge. Someone had donated a bunch of fabric to the guild. Everyone was given a bag of fabrics to use to make a quilt. These are just a few of the quilts turned in. I think I heard there were over 300 quilts made for Project Linus Quilts of Howard County. Here are the ones I snapped pictures of.

I'll be sharing more quilts over the next few weeks.
Join me in checking out these Linky parties.
I've been fairly good about coming back and linking up posts. Hopefully I'll get the last two done on Friday.
Happy Quilting All! Bonnie
