Sunday Stash Report, May 25, 2025

Kwiltnkats Kloset (Millie's Dresses) finished.  This project turned out so nice.  Kerry has some fun quilting designs specifically designed for Millie's Dresses that she is interested in trying.  I say go for it Kerry!  The variety of dresses couldn't have been possible without the swap exchange with Pam, Christy, Jean, and Lorna.  I do have some leftovers that will become a charity quilt for our guild.

The cross stitch project for my niece Tiffany stitched by my grandma Alice is completely finished.  I hope to get this keepsake in the mail to Virginia sometime this week.  It has some wonderful quilting stitched out on it; great work Kerry.

Part 6

Double Delight is coming along nicely.  I am still working on Part 2, but there are enough units to have me anxious to move onto Part 6.  Part 6 is the layout of the top.  Part 7 is the Finale that adds borders.

Krushed flew in from Kerry arriving Saturday.  Today I trimmed it down and will be starting on the binding process in the coming days.

So that puts us up-to-date for now.  I can roll my stash count again this week with the finish of Kwiltnkats Kloset.  Have a fabulous week =^.^=

I have the first blocks sewn together.  I hope to get back into my sewing room after Aqua Fit this morning.  I am anxious to get to more of these.  It will be nice to be at the place Kerry is; she has her top done lucky her.  Kerry's blog doesn't show it yet, but I'll bet soon it will be there.

Last night after dinner I started up on finishing a beautiful project that was started by my Grandma Alice.  There were four that I got from my Mom.  No telling where Mom found them.  This is the third one that I will finish.

Section B

All the applique pieces are cut, threads are all with the project as well as floss.  Most of the applique is done.  The kit is split into four sections (A, B, C, and D).  Sections A and D are the sides requiring no applique.  They contain the markings for the hand quilting design which are scallops.  Notice in the pattern photo the scallop finish to the top.  I have all the folded bias tape to finish it as well.  I have been wanting to take a stab at hand quilting...perhaps I will give it a go.  Section B (photo above) is finished. 

Section C

I will be finishing Section C first.  Grandma used a lot of techniques to put the applique in place, but I will be using needle turn.  Tonight before finishing for the evening I had four of the leaves down.  Each of the leaves get a dark green floss vein and some require a stem.  There is a use of dark green bias tape, but so far it looks like all of that vein work is done.  I am very happy to have something from my Grandma to work on as it reminds me of her.

Have a wonderful week =^.^=
