Last Design Wall for 2010

Scraps are being used up in this rolling nine patch that I am working on to have less seams and pieces to cut.

So far I have two - I usually like to make four and  fiddle with sewing order.  I'm liking these even though they will probably be my first ufo for 2011!

LOL - ever the Serial Project Starter.   You can see what others have on their design wall by going over to Judy's Patchwork Times

Final 2010 Stash Report

Well I use almost a 1/2 yard of scraps so that much went out.  And I bought nothing, so yes, I can definitely say this year my stash was reduced by a smidgen - at least the buying frenzy has gone.  Maybe it's because I didn't go but to one quilt show, no quilt runs, and hardly any stores.  And I resisted buying online also.

I hope to be able to post a Grand Total in 2011.

Blessings in the New Year and may your stash diminish as your quilts pile up for warm comfort and sharing,

My New Table Runner!

Our quilt guild had their Christmas Potluck Meeting - it was great.  The attendance was low, but then we were in the middle of all that rain, so we weren't surprised when only about 1/2 of the normal number (around 80) were there.  We always have that steal game.  So after our show and share (we always have that), we got a ticket and the game began.  And here is what I won: 

I love it!  The pointsettias are fusible applique and stitched with gold metallic thread.  Just right for the season.
The potluck was great also.  So much yummy food!  My favorite in the desserts was the sugar cookies someone brought in that were shaped like spools of thread.  So clever! and delicious.
