Sunday Stash Report - 6/22

Let's see what did I accomplish this week? I finished 4 pineapple blocks for my group's Block Party. I also started cutting pieces for Snow Wonderland. I absolutely LOVE these fabrics. They are absolutely yummy! That was all I managed to squeeze in this week.

Above is a picture of contents for the Snow Wonderland kit I'm working on. I had seen this kit at Paducah, but didn't buy it because I didn't think it would fit in my suitcase. After the huge project at work, I decided that I would this for my co-worker who loves snowmen. I searched for it online and found it on The Woolen Willow website. I had never ordered from them before, but definitely would buy from them again. They emailed me shortly after I ordered stating they were waiting for one fabric to arrive yet so my kit wouldn't be shipped right away. (I've had several online shops that didn't communicate that something was backordered until I emailed them to ask where my order was. As a quilter, you can understand that we're not patient when there is new fabric or quilty stuff involved.) The package arrived the following week and all of the fabric is labeled and there is more than enough fabric in case there is a boo-boo.

Tomorrow I have off of work and my main focus is going to be working on Turtle Talk. My goal was to have it done by June 30 so I need to hustle to make that happen. The border fabric should arrive by mid-week so I should get the top finished this week too. I didn't receive any fabric this week but I did get three pantos: Rainbow Flight, Square Spiral, and Dust Devil.

This week's numbers (Goal: Use 50 yards by EOY):
  • Fabric Added This Week - 0 yards
  • Fabric Added as of Apr. '08 - 78-1/2 yards
  • Fabric Used This Week - 1/2 yards
  • Fabric Used Year to Date - 28-1/4 yards
Goals for this Coming Week:
  • Finish loading Turtle Talk to quilting frame and start quilting
  • Continue cutting fabric for Snow Wonderland
  • Add borders on Quilting Gone Wild (when it arrives)
