Stash Count Sunday

Stash Count

Here's the stash count:
Used: 1.25 yds
Added: 0, zilch, nada
I'm finishing up 3 quilts, have all the backing and binding. So I'll bask in the glory of having a positive balance for what might be the only time this year!
Judy Laquidara, of Patchwork Times, has a cool and fun blog. She is always having activities for all to participate in. One is a "Weekly" Stash Count. "Weekly" is a period of time you can define by multiplying it by whole numbers. I think I'll define weekly as 4 x weekly= once a month. Who knows? If I get it together, I might manage it more often!

Judy also hosts the Getting It Done Challenge. Each month you list what you want to get done for that month. I will share my progress here during the month, the good, the bad and the ugly. My January list will go up tomorrow

The Fine Print
I committed myself last year to working on my "kits" only. My kits are stored in their own plastic shoebox with a label. In the box is a pattern for the quilt I have seen and desire to make and the fabric to make it. I don't think I'm alone in this, hmmm? The only reason to buy fabric would be to get something that wasn't in the kit.

Well, I did purty good job, if I do say so myself. The little itty bitty problem I had was I changed the type of quilting I do...I have become a great fan of Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville.com. She is my quilting muse! I also became enamored with string quilts, ahhhh, *big sigh*. 

Because of this, some things have happened...
