Design Wall Monday

Made another log cabin block using my new tool , and made a prototype string block - I know I want to change it already.  Making these two at a time like leaders and enders:

NewFO Challenge

LOL - can't decide what to post - started several.  Think I'll post the new quick to make log cabin blocks with that trim tool I bought.  You can read about it here.   I also started a Urban Nine Patch block which came out not the right size, so it will be a quiltlet.  Then started a new VA quilt plus my new applique which is from Anna's Garden. Probably other stuff I started - just can't remember right now.

I did finish Alan's pillow (don't know if I reported that).  You can read about it here.  And one other finish I'm not sure I posted in NewFO is my carpenter star.

Stash Report 7/1/12

I was busy last week but with actual quilting on my FMQ, hand appliqueing, and embroidery.  I did make 2 blocks - pulled a 1 1/4 yards for my Urban Nine Patch and a 1/4 yard for another Log Cabin block.

Here are my numbers:
Used/Donated last week: 1.5    yards
Used/Donated YTD:      86.84 yards
Added/Bought last week:   0.0 yards
Added/Bought YTD:        33.5 yards
------------------------------
Net Decrease YTD: 53.34 yards   Not bad for the start of the second half of the Stash Busting Year!
