Stash Report and Stitching Time 10/22/2023

It has been a very busy week in my sewing room. Most of the action was finishing up the last projects for the guild Christmas market, but I also spent some time on other projects. One of the others was this block, which is part of the National Quilt Museum's block of the month. This block pattern is called Spinning Stripes. Making this block used 1/2 yard of fabric.

The other project that hasn't already been featured in a blog post was a set of Christmas placemats for Meals on Wheels. There are four of them, all the same. The fronts were a panel that I was given, and I used 1-1/8 yards from my stash for the backings and bindings. If these look familiar, it's because I made another set with the same design back in August.

The total stash usage for the week came to 5.75 yards. Besides the items shown above, there was 1.75 yards used for a tablerunner, plus 1.5 yards on a set of four wallets (all shared HERE,) and 7/8 yard for two sets of blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, shared in yesterday's post. No new fabric was added to the stash.
