Joining in
Hello all. Im joining in because I have a massive stash to get under control. It was my grandma's and Im the one interested in doing something with it. I dont fully know what all I have. I know its more than I can store when Im able to setup my own sewing room.
Right now Im just using hers while my parents are working on soring and organizing. I have future plans for my own space but the aren't in motion yet. Mom keeps asking me to find anything I dont want and I have no clue how to go about that.
Im starting with finishing and adding to her charity quilt pile. There's a large amount of batting that I'll hopefully be able to put a dent in and I need more quilting experience, plus its a nice way to add to her work without feeling like Im going to mess it up too bad because they're mostly simple. I naturally chose one of the nicest ones to start with but I will be able to give it to a friend, so it will be materials all out the door.
I am resisting the urge to buy some duck printed fabric for the back. I haven't found any ducks yet and my friend loves them and the fabric I chose for the back with need a bit more width. On the other hand I'd probably have to secret it into the house because my family would not respond well to more fabric. So thats holding me back.
Anyways I thought this seemed to fit here. Thoughts and tips are welcome.
