When my husband and I were finalizing our plans to move, I knew it was going to throw a curve ball to Stash Fabrics in their delivery of my monthly Kona Club fabric. They were fabulous and understanding, and they were able to wait to ship my July and August fabric at the same time. I received the June...

May Stash Kona Club Fabric

I just wanted to pop in today to share the fabric I received in May as part of the Stash Fabrics Kona Club. It might not seem very exciting, but these fabrics often do a lot of heavy lifting in a quilt. Black, gray, and white are very commonly used as background colors, and the nuance in undertone in the...

Current Stash Fabrics Kona Club Storage Solution

I have officially received one third of the Stash Fabrics Kona Club fabric. In January, I wasn't sure how I was going to store all this fabric so I put it all back in the box it was shipped in and tucked it away in my "super closet" for later consideration. I am getting a yard of each color,...

Stash Fabrics Kona Club {February}

While I was on my two week staycation, I received my Stash Fabrics Kona Club fabrics for February. When I opened the box, I appreciated the ombré fade from light to dark. What can I say, I'm a sucker for a lovely shift in value! I'm thinking these fabrics are going to end up displayed in our living room bookshelf. Stay...

Stash Fabrics Kona Club {January}

EDITED TO ADD: Stash Fabrics reached out to me to let me know that they do label the fabric. Either the yard of fabric I unfolded originally had lost its label, or I just missed it, but I did check and found a label on another yard. So that is really good to know; the labels just seem to...

August Stash Acquisitions

As you are likely aware, my friend Bernie, who runs the Needle and Foot Etsy fabric shop, is retiring. Everything in her shop is discounted, and I picked up a few items from her shop that arrived last week. I selected yardage of Royal Blue in FreeSpirit Solids, Chocolate (Dark Brown) in FreeSpirit Solids, Picnic in Straw, Picnic in Brick,...

Love is Love Pride Fabric Collection

A few years ago, Mathew Boudreaux (whom you may likely know as Mister Domestic) reached out to see if I had the time to make something with his newest fabric collection. Unfortunately, the timing didn't work out due to some other commitments that I had. Fast forward to about a month ago, and he reached out again to see...

April Stash Acquisitions

It all started innocently enough (as most things do, right)? I needed to place an order for enough Kona Cotton Nightfall for the backing of Pulsar. I also needed to get more matching Aurifil thread, 2784 (Dark Navy) for the Nightfall for the quilting. Well, since I was shopping at Stash Fabrics for the Nightfall, I started thinking about what...

I am currently working on a lot of different "secret sewing" projects, which is both exciting and frustrating. I definitely look forward to being able to share details about these projects when I can (stay tuned for more about some on Friday), but it's frustrating because I have less that I can share and talk about in the mean...

Morrison Park

Pat Sloan's newest fabric line with Benartex, Morrison Park, will be in quilt shops starting in October. When she reached out to me to see if there was a chance I might have a pattern or quilt I might want to make with her new fabric line, I had just figured out how to make curve star blocks and...

Local LQS Store Closing / Retiring

At the beginning of 2020, one of the two quilt shops in my town announced that they would be retiring in April. When I heard the news, I went into the store and picked up 6 yards of Kona Cotton Snow and a few other 1/2 yard cuts and chatted with the owners. They were planning to move the...

The Confident Stitch {Stash Enhancement}

To be perfectly honest, my stash of prints looks a lot more like scraps to most people. The first shelf above my sewing machine has 12 small, clear plastic bins that hold the majority of my print stash (I also have a dedicated Carolyn Friedlander large bin on the second shelf right now, too). I tend to add fat quarters,...

Stash Acquisitions

Continuing the recap from my time in Greenville, South Carolina... To unwind together on Saturday evening after a full day of teaching (me) and sewing (Cheryl), we watched Christopher (The Tattooed Quilter)'s recent webinar for the MQG: Perfecting the Perfect Flat Lay (note that the webinar link only works if you are an MQG member and logged into the MQG website)....

Fabric, Splendid Sampler II

Stash Acquisitions

I'm glad I thought about going ahead and getting some more fabric for my Splendid Sampler 2 blocks, because when I went to order more fabric last week, it was harder to find yardage than I had anticipated. In the end I was able to find the pieces I was looking for along with a few other prints to...

Stash Enhancement

Last week I had the pleasure of taking the 2018 QuiltCon Charity Quilt, Better Together, created by the Blue Moon Quilters to my local quilt shop to drop of for donation to Project Linus. I picked up and brought Better Together home with me from QuiltCon. I removed the labels required for the show, removed the hanging sleeve, and was...

Bernie from Needle and Foot reached out to see if I would curate a 5 or 6-piece fat quarter bundle of fabric from her Needle and Foot Etsy shop, and I was thrilled at the opportunity. Knowing that I would get to...

Sunday Stash {3/11/2018}

Is it really adding to the stash when what is purchased has a specific project and need? Regardless, I have been accumulating some new fabric and thread for upcoming projects, and it's awfully pretty. I have some Carolyn Friedlander fat quarters that I have drafted a quilt pattern to use. I was pondering what I would use for the quilt...

I received a surprise fat eighth bundle of Liberty from Alice Caroline in the mail yesterday! When they contacted me about the Liberty giveaway I hosted, I didn't imagine that they would also send me a lovely bundle to enjoy. These eight fabrics are from the new Alpine Symphony collection that was released at the beginning of January. The prints here are: ...

At the end of December, I was contacted by Alice Caroline, who are Liberty fabric specialists in England. They launched 2 new Liberty Fabric collections on January 1st, and were wondering if my readers might like a giveaway for 8 fat eighth pieces from one of the collections. I figured the answer to that would be, "Yes!" First, let me...
