Stash Busting Week #4

Well ladies I caved this week. I bought a few things not much but a new book, pattern & fabric. I got the livin large book by Anka Treasures and a new Bonnie Blue Quilt Pattern. I bought 2 1/2 yards for sashing & 1 1/2 for the border for the Bonnie Blue Pattern. I think the rest of the fabric will come out of my stash. I thought that was at least a good part that I would use up some of my stash for the rest. The other good thing is my finishing keep for Web Sample hasn't arrived yet. I do think I'm going to join a few new Block of the Month programs. Those BOM's are my weakest link. Not to mention I like to buy Kits and April is quickly coming for the Chicago Quilt show. I've even signed up to take a class, the good thing is I won't have to buy any fabric for that class, oh wait it has a kit include pre cut and everything. I'm really excited that I was able to get in the class by Charlotte Angotti. We had a chance to go to a lunch at Houston Quilt Fest. and she was the speaker, boy was that I alot of fun. So I think the class will be to. Sorry I'm babbling on a bit. Off to the sewing machine so that next week I can take some fabric away.

Stash Busting Week #3

Well, so far this year I've not bought anything. I did cut up a kit this week and did some sewing. It has been a little cold the last week here. On Friday night the temp in the car said it was zero out. That was the first time in two days that we had a positive number. Also I'm trying to feel better after a cold this last week. I don't think next week will be a good week because the finishing kit for Web Sampler will be coming. I broke down and bought a kit. Until next week.

Stash Busting Week #1











Well I managed to get nothing bought. I did get a few block made from some fat quarters. I should have the rest of the blocks done this week. I hope that I'll have some time to sew the blocks together some time this week. I also included a picture of our dog Sophie. This was a new toy she got for Christmas from her Grama & Grampa, she loves this so much that she has to being it everywhere. Just thought I'd add that in. Take care until next week. TaTa for now.
