Sunday Stash Report, June 28, 2020

This is where my handsome nutcracker remains until Primitive Gatherings brings me some Valdani #8 threads.  I pined his hat with its trim and the beard with the inner part of his coat on just to give him a form :)!  Four balls of Perle Cotton in ivory, red, yellow and blue get here soon =^.^=

Korona is ready for the hand work; putting the binding, sleeve, and label in place.  I will be working on it while waiting for the threads.

Kourage has its binding in place.  The sleeve is ready next along with the label.  It is my plan to have Greyson's quilt on its way Thursday.  I really love how this project turned out.

There is nothing to change my stash status this week.  After having several weeks of using and no purchases it's a shame.  Perhaps Primitive Gatherings will bring me threads early this week and Wooly Nutcracker can be a finish next time.  Until then do take care of yourself!

Kourage (Gray Stone Farm by Lisa Bongean)

40" x 50"

Kourage is finished.  A nice gray with navy stars from Primitive Gatherings will be used for the back.  It is being fitted to Kourage today.  Kerry gets it next for some fun quilting design.  Not sure if a traditional feather design for the traditional pattern will be the choice.  I am leaning in that direction, but something else might come along.  Kerry has so many possibilities and the many designers have an entire arsenal available just a click away =^.^= 

These cute patriotic socks came to me along with the Halloween FQ from Mom on Friday.  It is always a nice surprise to have something arrive unexpected.  Thanks Mom!

My Great Nephew Greyson was born on Tuesday, 6/2.  He is strong, but continues to have troubles in his first week of life.  Issues with his heart were not as was expected; joyfully so.  He did have a different issue with his annal system.  Something little discussed, but not uncommon.  This will take a couple of surgeries to correct.  Keep praying for him and his family.

Design Wall Monday, June 1, 2020

This is where I start my day with Kourage.  There are a total of 80 blocks in the size of the the project.  Not too much more to go now.  I'm already considering what is available to me in my stash for a bak.  I will have used all the fabrics in the top for it's making.

June is a particularly busy family birth month and one more is soon to be added.  Greyson, whether he's ready or not, is to be born tomorrow =^.^=

Kavort is done.  What a nice Frolic! this project has turned out to be.

Beware! It's Halloween BOM arrived on Friday.  I do need to get started on this project...

With a little color guidance from Mom to be (just two days from today), these colors are to be another project for Greyson.  This is the one promised at the virtual baby shower in March.

This is where I ended up from just a bit over two days of sewing.

Kuddles and Kisses didn't make it to Virginia on Saturday as expected.  Hopefully it is just a day late and will arrive on Monday.  Nothing changes my stats this week.  It does look like there might be a change next week with the completion of this fast moving project Kourage.  I'll also look forward to sharing news of Greyson's arrival that is to be on June 2nd.
