If I had set goals this week for quilt activities NOT to do, they would have been these:
1. Don't start any new projects.
2. Don't buy any more fabric.
Well guess what, I did both! The new project is for a very good cause (more on that tomorrow.) The new fabrics came from the going-out-of-business sale at Hancock Fabrics. They are both flannels, intended to be used as backings for baby quilts--so soft and cuddly!
Fortunately, I did use just enough fabric to keep my numbers in the black. I made lots of teal blocks for two different Rainbow Scrap Challenge projects.

I am joining Kate at Life in Pieces in tracking the number of days each week that I spend at least 15 minutes quilting. It was a good week for getting time in the sewing room every single day.

Hard to pass up those sale fabrics. They'd also make some cute PJ bottoms if you don't need them for baby quilts. Lots of pretty teal blocks. You'll have lots of completed projects to show off by the end of the year.
ReplyDeleteLove the teal blocks, and cute cuddlies. Congrats on staying in the black with the purchases, but 'Wow!' on the stitching days. That is impressive!
ReplyDeleteYou got some very cute flannel backing and even better that they were on sale. Ooh, love all of those tells in your rainbow challenge.
