It's a going away gift for a friend & no time to do something else. I'm not finished with the binding but when I am, I'll post a picture. Perhaps someone can give me an idea for it's potential use.
Anyone else been a bit disappointed with a quilt outcome from 'applied stash'?
YES! I am reorganizing my sewing room and am wondering what I will do with the fabrics I bought. Some were purchased while on trips and others just because I liked them. The "scrap" and "stash" quilts I see here on QB seem to really go together, and I'm wondering how to do that with all my wacky combinations. Ah well, inspiration will strike one day. Maybe.
