Stash Report

I started Stars for a New Day which is a BOM I purchased from the Quilting Show in 2009.  It is a beautiful design by Sue Garmon.  I've been putting it off because I was worried about my skills for paper piecing.  I have all the material - also since 2009 - time to start!  I hope to finish the first month's assignments this week.  

Beginning of the Feathered Star Medallion

I'm also going to start the Project of Doom this week.  It's a wonderful BOW by Jennifer Ofenstein at Fandom of Stitches.  Actually, Jennifer ran the BOW twice (2011 and 2015).  It's based on the Harry Potter books and is all paper pieced.  I have quite a few fabrics in my stash to use for the books, but needed the background material.  This accounts for 4 of the yards I purchased this week.  

The other fabrics will be part of the memory quilt I'm making from Bonnie Hunter's last mystery quilt - En Provence.  

Here's to summer sewing!  Lots of starting but no finishing.  I'll have to work on that soon!

Fabric Used This Week:  0 yards
Fabric Used Year to Date: 2 yards
Fabric Added This Week:  6.25 yards
Fabric Added Year to Date: 20.25 yards
Net Fabric for 2017: +18.25 yards

Estimated yardage on hand: 293.27 + 6.25 = 299.52

I'm going to count fabric as "used" when I've completed a top, a bottom and/or binding.
