Quilted Jonquil

I put together a simple Halloween table runner that is a gift for someone I work with.  Strange to give a Halloween gift at this time but it’s a thank you gift for someone who loves Halloween.  I sewed up scraps from two green & pink quilts I made a while back so I now have four orphan blocks.  Peaking out behind the table runner is block #2 of the Vicksburg Free BOM from Dawn of Linen Closet Quilts.  I also finished putting together the project with the green fabric that has been making limited appearances on the design wall and while I can’t show a picture of it yet, I CAN count the yardage as USED!! 

Design Wall Monday

Here’s a picture of the second Vicksburg block and I’m not sure I’m happy with my fabric choices but I’ll wait to see how it looks later.

Vicksburg #2

Block #4 is out already but Block #3 is actually 4 pieced blocks which I’ll get to soon.  I’ve already started block #4 so I’ll catch up!

So I haven’t given a stash update for a while….I’ve been bad, sort of.  I purchased the Halloween fabric I needed for the table runner (2.5 yds) which was on sale.  So I picked up a purple and white piece of Halloween (3 yds).  I used a 30% off coupon for Jackman’s Fabrics to get the darling green fabric with the cute birds from Red Rooster (2 yds) and the red dot fabric was only $3/yd!  The Kaffe Fassett fabric is a Fox Tail (1/3 yd)  from the Quilted Fox….isn’t it fun?

Stash Enhancement

So here’s the damages:

Added this week:  ~9  Cumulative Added: ~ 25 yds

Used this week: ~5     Cumulative Used: ~20 yds

Net Out/(In): (~5 yds)  Hmmmmmm…….not making progress here.
