Good luck with going through the stash and cutting strips etc, I did that last November. Now I have tons of things cut and my stash just grew! Not sure how that happens, anyway here is a pic of my Christmas quilt. I am happy with it, I can't decide whether to keep it myself or give as a gift which is what I will probably do. I am happy with my quilting, venturing out from meandering with loop de loops and swirls. Finished it off with binding it of this candy material
