First off, thanks to those who voted for my quilt in the Blogger's Quilt Festival. I won in the ROYGBIV category! There were so many great quilts this year. I had fun browsing through them.
I admit it was a bad month for the stash. I had my buddies Amy and Colleen pick up some loot for me from Market. I am so excited about both bundles. They are just pretty. I haven't opened either one, but I do have two ideas in mind for the Simply Color stack.
Looking back at the month, I finished way more stash projects that I thought I did. These three quilts were made entirely from my stash (except some white I had to pick up for my improv quilt back and the retro flowers quilt).
The Retro Flowers quilt will get a post of it's own soon. I finished it last week.
I finished up a few more bags for the kiddos using Jeni's pattern from In Color Order. The pink one is my absolute favorite.
Finally I pulled this stack of fabric for a quilt for my niece. My SIL asked me to make twin-size quilts for each of her kiddos. We're starting with her daughter's first. This will be a great stash project for June.
I've also pulled a whole box full of fabric to sell on Etsy again, including some color wheel charm packs I cut from my stash. I'll be listing those as soon as the post office delivers all my shipping supplies. I've been working quite a bit to narrow my stash to what I know I will use. It feels good to purge a bit.
So what stash projects have you been up to this month?
I totally agree - purging the stash feels very good. Your May finishes are all wonderful, Kati! And congrats on the win - it's a fabulous quilt!
