stash report May 28, 2023 from Making A Lather

While cleaning my room, I found an unopened box from missourri star quilts. In it were a few neutrals and a fat quarter bundle of kaffe fabric. In my defense, I used to know it was there. I don't need the kaffe until the end of the rainbow scrap challenge year for my lucky stars quilt. So, I didn't hurry to open it. But, then,.... I forgot it. Such a lovely surprise to find while cleaning. No one likes to clean, maybe all quilters need to hide fun surprises in the mess to make it more fun. I ...

Happy Mother's day

My, my feelings have changed over the years. When I was in grade school, we wrote little essays to someplace that would pick the Mother of the year. I was sure mine would win, until, I was a teenager, then, I thought she should go to Mom jail. Then, I was a new Mom and so excited. I have been in Mom jail myself many times. Now, I just hope for a candy bar passed out at church.

I found a good deal on a halloween fat quarter bundle and added it to my stash. I really like halloween fabrics. I don't really have any quilts started, and, I try not to buy any in the fall, but, it sneaks in any way.

I added some scraps from the guild table at our quilt show. I haven't even taken them out of the sack. Most of what I bought were 1.00 mystery bags filled with scrap pieces. The quilt show went well, with a smaller venue.

I entered sea swept, rainbow pineapple blossom, and Boho heart.

I found these beauties on the free table at quilt guild. The key fabric is 36 inches, so is vintage. I am planning a patriotic quilt... someday, so, I keep a look out for red, white, and blue. I am collecting floral scraps, too.

We have a quilter that is moving. She had this little set of 30s fabrics on the table with 4 blocks sewn together. I thought it was cute. I could see making a medallion quilt over time as a memory of her.

A Little of This and A Little of That from The Cozy Quilter

Regular readers of my blog may remember that I took an introductory class in rug hooking last summer. The hooking has all been done for a while and I finally finished off my project last weekend. A friend who describes herself as a "hooker" and "addicted to fibre" showed me how to do the outer edge of my sheep project. I hope to hang this little rug on the wall in my sewing room. I would be quite willing to try another rug hooking project.

For the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, this week I used up some tiny scraps to make ...

I found some batiks to add to my stash. I was surprised how much aqua/ turquoise I have added to my stash the last few years. I have an impressive stack of them. Last year, my goal was to mindfully add yellow and purple. I did a great job, I think. This year, I don't have a focus for purchases, except not to make any - LOL.
