Happy July 4th to everyone in the US! I hope you are enjoying a fun and safe holiday weekend!
The stash report for the past week took a bigger than usual jump on the used side, thanks to the completion of the blocks for my second version of the Positivity quilt. I finished 48 blocks, which used 5 yards of fabric. You can see some of the blocks in THIS POST. The blocks have all been joined together into a quilt top, but I'm going to wait and share photos of that when the next link-up happens on July 18th.
Other usage included 1/4 yard for one Homespun block, shown in yesterday's post, and 3/8 yard for these 16 Bowtie blocks, which will finish at 4". No new fabric was added to the stash last week.

Kate's 15 Minutes to Stitch Challenge at Life in Pieces has us tracking how many days each week we get in at least 15 minutes of quilting time. My main quilting project for the week was making the rest of the Positivity blocks and joining them all together, but I also worked on a couple of other projects. There was definitely more than 15 minutes spent quilting every day!
15 Minute Challenge for 2021:

2021 Total 183 of 184 days

Great report!
ReplyDeleteI ran across a bow tie UFO. Your purple bow ties make me want to pull it out and finish it.
ReplyDeletePretty bowtie blocks! They are so versatile!
