It occurred to me that I never shared the finish of Kasper or Kooky.  Both of these are UFOs for current year.  Kasper is from the 2022 Spooky Box and Kooky from the 2023 Spooky Box.  These are the mystery boxes that come from Fat Quarter Shop.

On Saturday the Sunbonnet Babies cross-stitch project came back from Kerry and OMG did it ever come out cute.  I am in the process of binding it now and will share with you very soon.  I did decide on a name for it called Korbett in honor of the maker of the Sunbonnet Sue design so many years ago.  More on Korbett when the binding is complete.

Take care my friends and enjoy the month of February =^.^=


Sunday Stash Report, February 4, 2024

 

I finished one project, the March/April Sunshine Seasonal Donation.  It is on its way to Arizona for quilting.  I will get it back and add the binding with a label as well.  Oh, everyone should love it.  In the meantime several other UFOs are on a path for the sewing machine.  This is one of them, October Morning.  My friend Pam, was so wonderful to me for letting me use her stash to make this project.  These types of fabrics aren't ones that are in my stash...yet!  This project, since Pam did it, will be made smaller by half.

I have cut down the scraps into useable units for the brown and starting on the gold now.

Next up are the teals that I love so much.  It is a favorite color from most quilters and frankly hard to keep in your stash as they seem to find away into most projects.  The rust colors are next and then the backgrounds.

I have used this week.  No purchases =^.^=

Used this week: 5.5 yards 
Used YTD: 5.5 yards 
Purchased this week: 4 yard
Purchased YTD: 31.5 yards
Net used in 2024: -26 yards

Krinkle is complete except for the label.  I love how it turned out.  This was a UFO that will be checked off the list and better yet ready for Christmas 2024.

I have been working on hand sewing this week.  Sit the "main event" is to be a surprise its first glimpse will be at the March Monthly Sunshine Quilt Guild Meeting on March 12th.  I'm real excited about this donation that is the Seasonal Bimonthly Donation which I signed up to be the donor.  Stay tuned in for a reveal about a month away.

I have more binding coming soon as I work through my UFOs for 2024 and eek earlier years.  They will all get done!  Enjoy your week ahead. =^.^=
