Sunday Stash and Stitching 3/15/2026

Spring has been putting on a show here lately, with several days of warm temperatures and all sorts of flowers and trees blooming. We spent a few days in New Orleans this week, and it was even warmer there (mid 80's) until one night when thunderstorms rolled in and cooled things off. We are back home now and expecting a major cool-down in a day or so.

Here's a tip for anyone planning a trip to New Orleans--the National WWII Museum is well worth a visit. We took a highlights tour in the morning, then spent more time after lunch exploring on our own. It was very easy to spend a whole day there, and we still didn't see it all. Highly recommended! We also spent some time wandering the French Quarter and ate lots of wonderful seafood.

My stash report is very brief this week because there is nothing to show and very little to tell. The only change to the stash was the addition of 2 yards of black solid for my new temperature quilt project, and I didn't bother taking a photo of that.

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. The trip to New Orleans reduced my quilting time, but I did take a hand-stitching project along. I also got to visit one quilt shop there. Now that we are back home, I'm finishing up the binding on a quilt.
