Sunday Stash Report, March 1, 2015
Today is UFO Parade Day for February at Aunt Marti's 52quilts.com. If you have time check out who finished projects this past month. Also it's the time when March's project number is selected...wonder what you'll be seeing me working on next month? I'm pretty excited to get into something new.
This week I have the completion of Kurry to account for and the purchase of its back. I picked up this yellow print with just a touch of pink from Beverly'. I'm thinking to use scraps from the fabrics of the top for a scrappy binding. After that wide border of purple bringing movement out to the binding seems like a good idea to me. As for the quilting thread either a multi colored or yellow are racing across my thoughts. The decision will come once there is an audition at Kerry's Quilting.
I have four quilts ranging in size from a two block project in Krazy Koons 2 to Kurry. My queue is getting deeper for Kerry! Its a good thing I have a full time position...
Yesterday since my sewing room lacks an active project in anticipation for March's UFO to be selected, I pulled out Korners to work on. Korners is from the Bonnie Hunter workshop I took in November last year. It is her design Winston Ways. There are 620 2 1/2" unfinished 4-patches to make. I probably have less than 100 sewn together. When this UFO is called I'll be racing to have these done. How nice would it be if I can have them ready?
Used this week: 18.5 yards
Used YTD: 61.25 yards
Purchased this week: 5 yards
Purchased YTD: 34.25 yards
Net Fabric Used in 2015: 27 yards
I hope that you have a lovely Sunday and a wonderful March. See how others are using their stash through the links at patchworktimes.com.

Thanks for sharing! I'll check out the UFO parade. :) I'm getting close to pulling out a UFO too...
I'm trying to play along with the UFOS pick of the month too. Still working on January's quilt, but will finish it this month. Good luck in March!
Wow, great stash busting this year!
I really like Winston Ways, but I thinks the bazillion 4-patches needed would scare me off. You are so good at just plowing through such obstacles! : )
Great numbers so far this year. You really keep your fabrics moving well. I like your Winston's Way colors a lot. I assume it is a scrap quilt. I want to start another scrappy leader and ender project, but I am trying not to. Still too many UFOs to finish up.
Just when Kerry thought her quilting for Sandi was caught up, surprise, she has another stack to go. Nice yellow print for Kurry. You certainly keep Bonnie going with her patterns.
