While switching over to fall/winter quilts on our beds recently, I decided to make a set of pillowcases to go with the quilt on Ed's bed. The quilt is "Scrappy Sampler," which was finished back in 2014. I guess these pillowcases are long overdue!
I went through my fabric stash and pulled out some options that worked well with the colors in the quilt. I didn't have enough yardage to make all four pillowcases the same, so I used two different prints for the bodies and a third fabric for the cuffs. It all added up to 4.25 yards used. No new fabric was added to the stash this week.
Used last week: 4.25 yards
Used year to date: 158.5 yards
Added last week: 0.0 yards
Added year to date: 203.5 yards
Net added in 2026: 45.0 yards
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. We had a busier than usual week, which limited my quilting time, but I did get some done every day. Progress on quilting the Feathered Star quilt has been slow, but I'm still hoping to finish it soon. When I needed a break from that, I've been piecing more blocks for the Color Study quilt.
