Design Wall Monday, July 20, 2026

Confetti is on my Design Wall this morning.  The pattern is called When Perfect Isn't the Point by Jemina Flendt.  The top row is sewn together.  This is what I was able to accomplish in January at Road to California Quilt Show earlier this year.  I used lots of scraps from previous projects to put this project together.  A BOM from Fat Quarter Shop provided enough background scraps, but I had to wait each month to get enough to finish it (plus a little help from Pam).

I am getting low on three fabrics to have a good variety, but I will continue with what I have.  I can always reduce the size if the reds take over too much.  Instead of 144 units (4 make a block), I can make it 100 units.  This would mean 5 blocks by 5 blocks instead of 6.  I would be happy with this smaller size instead.  I can't call this quilt Konfetti because I already have a quilt with that name.  Time to start considering what to call my Confetti =^.^=

Yeah it's a 2026 UFO!

Sunday Stash Report, July 19, 2026

 

This one is done!  Kordia Krunch came together since Wednesday.  I had a bit of a delay making up my mind on the inner border.  I thought a solid white until I found this half yard in my stash.  It has dots just enough not to be so stark.  It will be off to Kerry sometime this week.

Even though it was a Rosie's week...I stayed out of the store so there is only a USED to my stash this week. 

Used this week: 13.25 yards
Used YTD: 186.75 yards 
Purchased this week: 0 yards
Purchased YTD: 43.5 yards
Net used in 2026: 143.25 yards 

I will be working on one of the two workshops project that were started at Road to California earlier this year.  You will have to check out my Monday Design Wall post to see it.  It is a UFO and real far along.  I also have another of mom's projects to work on.  I think this project is the last of fabrics brought home with me last Fall.  Mom...make sure you let dad know that this Fall's trip I am coming to use up more!

Wednesday Workings, July 15, 2026

I am excited that all the piecing is done on Kordia Krunch.  All these pieces are on my design wall ready for a good press.  That pressing will take place as I stitch the rows together.  This was a big project.  There is a neutral inner border that needs to be figured out.  There is lots to do before an inner border can be added.  Oh I wish these last five quilts were UFOs!  

Klarity came back from Kerry.  I have her all trimmed and ready for the next steps.  Pieces of the border were plenty; they will become the sleeve.  I have it yet to stitch.  Love the purple =^.^=

Have a great Wednesday.
