Design Wall Monday
You can check out what other people are working on by checking in with Judy’s Design Wall Monday post. Here’s what’s on my design wall:
The crumb quilt from my scraps I’m calling Fiesta! The crumb border blocks are not sewn yet as I’m still playing with the placement but it’s much closer to finished now.
I was involved in a little retail therapy:
But a couple of the piece are to be used immediately (yes, I’m justifying).
This piece is already cut into squares, making 8 napkins (in place of paper so this is a green project…never mind I already have cloth napkins
)
This piece I bought to practice some long arm quilting. I thought these prints of vintage appliqued quilts would provide a fun, structured practice piece. In addition, one of the other pieces, the purple one, has already been used for the second border on “Fiesta” so that means 5 yards have already been put into play
First 2010 Stash Report:
Added: 15 Cumulative Added: 24 yds
Used: 0 Cumulative Used: 0 yds (I’ll count the napkins when they are finished and the practice piece when I’ve practiced!)
Net Out/(In): (24 yds) Ugh!
On a better note, here are some pictures of my cats…
Last, here are the fabrics for the January First Saturday blocks. Can’t wait to get these done.

I love the wonderful color infused sting block quilt on your design wall. It inspires me to be more bold. Thanks for sharing.

I love your fabric, especially the quilt repro that you are going to practice on. I have never seen this fabric.
