Stash Report and Stitching Time 1/14/2024

I've been stitching away like crazy this week, plus attempting to do a little bit of cleaning up in the sewing room. I pulled out this bin of scraps, mostly batiks, to sort through and trim up. I hope to finish working my way through the blue and green bits this week.

The only fabric usage to report for the past week is 1/2 yard for the Bird's Nest placemat that I made for the first Project Quilting Challenge of the year. I just took a peek at the Project Quilting link-up, and there are already 176 entries for the week with about 4 hours to go before the deadline. Go HERE to check out the amazing creativity on display, all of it produced in a week or less.

I have lots of other scrappy blocks up on the design wall, but I will wait until the end of the month to total up the usage for all of them. Stash additions are still at zero for the year!
