Almost the end of the month already.....
At the club I go to if there is 5 Tuesdays in the month the last one is a de-stash day and people can take in things they no longer need. So far I have never sold but I have often found a few bits of fabric I don't really need!
Another scrap quilt started this weekend..... this only uses small amounts of colour fabric so ideal for those smaller scraps in the basket. They are little buttons - the blocks are 4" as is and will be alternated with plain white blocks in between. I have some white 'sheeting' I purchased yonks ago so I will use that - lovely and soft. I will do as many blocks as I can in each colour (I would like 96 at the end of the year) RSC colour was dark/bright blues but there are a few ring-ins there....
I did this months quilting on my Quilt Along - also using Scraps. On Williams Street is hosting this and I am combining it with RSC.
The other blue one is my house which was the first idea.... one house each month...
I hope I can keep up with the 3 of them.
Finishes this month included last years RSC fish quilt.....
3 little draw string bags....
And a long waiting to be quilted Charming Stars quilt......
... and a little basket was made.... also from scraps....
Thank you January.....
Righto, Gotto Go... need to collect up some coins and small notes for tomorrow's de-stash... coffee first of course....
Love your blocks & your finishes. Have fun at the destash tomorrow. 😊😊
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the finishes! All pretties! Your button blocks look like fun and would be a great RSC quilt.
ReplyDeleteThree great RSC blocks Fiona, love the cute buttons.
ReplyDeleteWell done with your finishes for January.
I’ve just filled a bag with things I no longer NEED, wish we had a destash day.
We just pop them on the table at Patch and whatever is still there in two weeks is donated to the Op shop.
Have a nice day tomorrow.
You have done well in January, Fiona! Your destash day sounds like a very good idea.
