I had some good time in the sewing room this week despite several nights of meetings/events and long days at work this week. I am slowly adjusting back to the full time work schedule and trying to fit in some quilting. Friday nights are great for that if I don't fall asleep at 9:30!
Earlier in the week, I made a couple pillowcases, one of which will be headed to a friend who is serving in Afghanistan. Then, inspired by Laura Wasilowski's visit to our guild last week, I started a fusible kit that I've had for a couple years. Got it all fused, now just need to cut it all out.
Friday night I needed some mindless piecing, so pulled back out my Judy L. quilt from the workshop in May. I am working on the pieced borders now and had so much fun that I sewed too many! The pile with the seam ripper on them is the stack I need to take out so I can use the triangles to finish up the other ones.
Despite having a birthday discount at one of my favorite shops, I didn't have any luck adding to my stash this week, which is really okay!
Fabric added this week: 0
Fabric used this week: 3 1/2 yards
Added year to date: 29 5/8 yards
Used year to date: 83 1/4 yards
Net fabric used: 53 5/8
Anyone think I can get past the mid 50's before I buy something else?!?!
