My stash is small but I still want to use it up. The stash came from my MIL, garage sales, a lady cleaning out her stash, and my church quilting group. I have fleece that was donated to me for fleece blankets so I will probably only need to buy fleece backings for those.
In the month of January, I cut approximately 20 pieces of my MIL's stash to put into 5 different quilt kits. I tried to get 6 squares cut to 10 inches(divided into 3 kits), 2 French Braid strips and 4 strips that will be bricks of 8 1/2 inches, and some 2 1/2 inch strips cut between 2 and 10 inches. That took lots of time because I needed to iron the fabric first. More material will be cut for several more months before the kits are ready to sew.
I also used stash for the backings of 6 baby quilts, the making of 5 tote bags, and one 60 by 63 inch top.
Thank goodness I had extra sewing days to finish these things. No subs are needed of course on 'no school cold days.'
