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...

The Inadvertent Purchase {Sunday Stash)

On Monday, I barely had enough white 50wt Aurifil (2021 or 2024 - either would have been OK for what I wanted) to quilt a quilt. But I eeked through it and as soon as my local quilt store (LQS) opened on Tuesday (Monday is the one day a week they are closed), I drove over hoping to pick up...

August Stash Builder Box & Giveaway

Sometimes life just does not go quite the way I have planned. I am guessing you might be able to relate; this seems like a universal happenstance. As I mentioned on July 15th, I had a pattern printed and included in the August Stash Builder Box: Bundle Buster. Amanda from Stash Builder Box very kindly shipped to me an...

LV Sunday Stash {20160710}

As much as I want to say this is not my fault, I admit that I really just completely lacked self control. When Carla posted about her Rainbow Rose Quilt Along top, I spied some low volume fabric that I couldn't resist asking about. And then Carla not only told me what the fabric was... but she sent a link to...
