Sunday's Some of This; Some of That

First the destashing - took a scrap bag and made 16 scrap blocks from it. There's a bit left for a few more blocks, however not for this quilt. That used up almost half a yard.  I used another fabric to sash four - another .25 yds.

The blocks won't necessarily go in this order. This will be a quilt for St. Anne's, and they're going up on my design wall so I can place them as I sash them. 

I made another of the new quilt's blocks - only 38 to go - lol.

I finished quilting my UFO for Jan-Feb and have binding for it. Also, as I'll be hand stitching these today, made 3 hexies for my Bliss.  Then found 1.33 yds in that scrap bag that will go to our guild sale table.  My new YTD total is 30.32 yds.

Now my 15 Minutes to Stitch 2019 report:

15 minutes stitching days/week = 7/7 days

15 minutes stitching days/Feb = 16/16 days

15 minutes stitching days/2019 = 46/47 days

Success Rate = 97.97% 

How about you?  Got some stitching to do today?  I'm linking with Can I Get a Whoop, Whoop?, Oh, Scrap!, Sunday Stash, Design Wall Monday, and a couple others - see my tab in the header. Have a wonderful week.

This Weather

You've probably heard that this part of drought ridden Southern California has finally been getting some rain - almost 2 inches on Valentine's Day. And with it came cold. We are near to our year's total already.  So we are delighted with the views for now of snow covered mountains around us.

 And the view behind us (taken in the park below us) is a wonderful green.  It's mostly brown for 3/4th's of the year.

We're on the south slope of the mountain - can't see in the photo.

I don't think I would be happy if I couldn't see mountains.  They anchor me.

Sunday's Some of This; Some of That

First the destash - bound a quilt, so there goes .25 yard of fabric out.  Also used 4 fat quarters for a new quilt. It's only the start of this quilt.  So out goes another yard.  Fabric wise, that's it because I've spent most of my time quilting two quilts this past week except for some hand stitching.  YTD total now 28.40 yards.

Here's the quilt I bound today. I showed the whole quilt in my previous post.

Showing the back and binding.

Ready for St. Anne's this Thursday

Here's the new quilt units for my first block of that new quilt:

Not squared up yet. The pattern says to wait till all block units are made.  Will be around 15 1/2" square. 

Here's where I'm at on that UFO I"m quilting. What should I put in that outside border of the one partly done?

Really liking the whole cloth look on the back:

I've started the next round on my Bliss project - the two with green stripes. Hope to do more this week starting tonight during TV time.

Lastly for stitching time:

15 minutes stitching days/week = 7/7 days

15 minutes stitching days/Feb = 9/9 days

15 minutes stitching days/2019 =  39/40 days

Success Rate = 97.50%

That's it for this report. How are you doing. Have any quilty plans for this week?  I'm linking to Oh, Scrap!, Sunday Stash Report, 15 Minutes to Stitch 2019 and Design Wall Monday.  There are more linky parties under my tab Linky Parties.  Blessings, and I leave you with this thought:
