Then there is the .18 yard of scraps I used to take part in a technical challenge at one of my facebook groups. This is on my Design wall now as well as my applique piece. I use Esther Aliu's method. I think I"ll make a 16" pillow out of those scrappy blocks.
Then, for hand stitching, realized that to continue my hexie project I forgot to plan for the next row, so I'll have to change 6 hexies from this
to this
Ah, me. Better that I caught it now than after I'd make all the hexies for the next round. That pulled a .25 yard piece from my stash. In total, I destashed 4.18 yards this week giving me a 5.45 YTD destash.
Finally, for my 15 Minute to Stitch report:
15 minutes stitching days/week = 7/7 days
15 minutes stitching days/Jan = 25/26 days
15 minutes stitching days/2019 = 25/26 days
Success Rate = 96.15%
15 minutes stitching days/Jan = 25/26 days
15 minutes stitching days/2019 = 25/26 days
Success Rate = 96.15%

Thanks for the clarity on bi and semi. I was always confused when people used bimonthly for two weeks! But also, would never used semi monthly for two weeks, I just use bi-weekly!
ReplyDeleteHello there! I loved your post and projects! Don't you just love slow stitching? I'm reading and studying your post as you described how you kept track of your fabric usage for blocks vs. quilts. It seems I'm not using fabric, but I am as I'm keeping up with several BOMs. How to figure out the fabric is a challenge for me. I've had to rip out a few hexies myself...but so enjoy the process of seeing something I hand stitched come together! Take good care and thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI like those blocks you made for the pillow top! The hexies look fun -- which reminds me I need to get back to work on my Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty blocks. Also always love to see hexies!
ReplyDeleteThose pinwheel blocks (is that what they're called) are really fun. I especially like your applique circle with the flowers being added. The block will be beautiful and many would make a delightful quilt.
ReplyDeleteI wish my boss had read your definition, he's less than clear on what he means with bi-weekly! Congrats on having great success on finding time to stitch most days. Love your hexie project, those bright colors are so fun. Thanks for linking up last week.
ReplyDeleteNicely done! I love how it all adds up, especially giving away some!
