2012 Stash Report #1

This is my first stash report of 2012, and also my first blog post ever.  As I was going through old projects last weekend to put together a UFO list, I found a Storm at Sea quilt that I started in 2001!  I had most of the parts cut out and many components put together.  This week I have been making more units, starting to join them into blocks, and trying to figure out a clever way to piece the outer edges to form a border design. 

Unfortunately, since everything I've sewn on the Storm at Sea was already cut out, I haven't used up any of my stash.  However, the good news is that I didn't buy anything either.  I went to Intown Quilters in Decatur, GA yesterday for the kickoff of their new Scrap Club.  As always, they have lots of beautiful fabrics to drool over, but since I am not shopping for a particular project, it was a little easier to resist buying.

  5. Welcome. This can become addictive. I love the way your top is shaping up. Storm at sea is on my to do list. I like the break between the border and the blocks. That is a great place to show off some quilting.
