Design Wall Monday 2/20/12

I transferred the pattern on the second Promises and Borders BOM onto fabric.  This is what I plan to work on this week in between UFO work.  Don't seem to have very much sewing time these days. Maybe tomorrow with the holiday, I can get started again - sigh.
Go on over to Judy's Patchwork Times and BOMs Away (on the sidebar) and see better pics of other design walls/BOM blocks.  If I get a chance tomorrow, I'll change the photo for a better one.

Stash Report 2/19/12

Used .25 yards for my FMQ sandwiches. Started a charity quilt that uses up another 2.25 yards - actually it is a receiving blanket and will be tied by St. Anne's Sewdality members. Here's a closeup of the fabric.

And here are my numbers:

Used/Donated this week: 2.50 yards

Used/Donated YTD: 21.1 yards

Added/Bought this week: 0.0 yards

Added/Bought YTD: 8.00 yards

--------------------------------

Net YTD: 13.1 yards

Falling behind - should be at 14 yards.

Favorite Things Friday 2/17/12

Today's favorite thing comes from my garden.  I bought a Roma Grape Tomato Plant 3 years ago.  And while my husband has rooted cutting three times, in a way we still have the same plant and it keeps giving us these luscious little tomatos.  They have so much flavor.  I thought these in the photo were going to be the last ones, but I see the plant has sent out more flowers and with our mild winter - looks like we will be enjoying some more!  I'm linking over on Shay's Favorite Things Friday (on my sidebar).  Go see what goodies others have to share.
