SOME PROGRESS, et al

 

Here are the "starting" color stacks of my prints....

[I say "starting" as I haven't gotten 

into my bins, boxes,

and bags as yet to pull fabrics out...

but there are not really

all that many fabrics left!!

I may have to go "shopping" to round

out some colors as you can tell from the

smaller stacks...--too bad hahaha]

The two bigger bins on the left top hold

whites and "I don't know where

to put these?" prints...

and my Jolly Bars and 10" 

precuts...

and

You can just spy my leftover

bindings bin on the top right...

Here are my solids on the right

still in bins but not

yet re-folded...

I don't seem to use solids

very much so I think storing

 them in bins will work--

at least for now.

↴↴↴↴

All my jelly rolls, etc are stored in this blue bin

on my bottom shelf

and so far my shirtings reside in that plastic

zippy bag next to the pinks/reds bin....

I will be re-assessing these after I have 

gotten into my top shelf

pictured below

I did find my long-lost quilt labels fabric during my

search--so that is good...I need to label a lot

of my finished pieces...;)))

And

While I am sorting and folding I am

coming across lots of little pieces that are now

here

A new collection of 2.5" squares ready to go;))))

I am using my old Accuquilt Go! Baby

cutter and the 2.5" die--even though it has

dulled a lot with age...👾

Lots of these smaller pieces lined up to be cut...

(Does anyone know of a way

 a way to sharpen dies?)

***********************

While doing this I've felt the need to

break my "no buy" pledge:

So I began with these two great little

Halloween fabrics that I found on sale:

AND

I plan on using them to make my grandgirls--

Willa and Fiona --Halloween placemats...

I think they are just so cute;)))

So far so good--I am resting 

this afternoon after putting

in another 45 minutes this

morning...

I need to pamper my back a bit...

SQUIRREL VISIT, et al

 

The Easter Squirrel 

came to visit

last week...

👀🐇🐰👀

I love this little pattern that uses 32

two inch squares....I got to use up 

a lot of my precut squares which

I found out were not really cut

very precisely!! 

and, so...

I will not be 

purchasing anymore precuts from 

Etsy shops anymore...

But, 

I was able to eke out some and

then cut others myself...

I wanted all light florals and

I don't usually have those in 

my stash...

I thought this would be perfect for a

little Easter table topper...

I found this block on Beth's Youtube:

"My Sewing Room".

I really like her patterns...

I have just pinned the borders and

cornerstones in place--

[still feeling too crummy to sew after

my covid shot...feeling better but

not 100% yet.]

***********************

My daffodil plot in front of 

my big moss-covered boulder

in my front yard is now

full of:

These lovely, cheerful daffodils...

It has been gray and raining a lot so that

their little heads are pretty 

much facing downwards...

Daffodils say 

"Spring" to me no

matter the low temps this year....

**********************

I decided that my stash needed a little

boost and I purchased these 

fabrics online.

All at their sale clearance price!! 

This is the first purchase this year--

so not bad--right???

Hahaha..

😁😂😃😄

😇

Tomorrow the next prompt comes 

for Comfort Cloth SAL--

my "Dark Days" piece...

Hoping I will be back to feeling normal

by then....
