Love your stash quilt, kristakz! Striking is the word for sure.

Your quilt is beautiful, kristakz. I am starting the mystery train ride and using what I have on hand. I have been gathering just my scraps together and am amazed at what I have! A little embarrassed also. I should never have let this happen!

I joined last year and it helped to reduce my stash only a little. I swear mine increased at nights while I slept. lol. I did only scrappy quilts and want to continue in this all of this year. I just finished B Hunters MQ and would you believe I still dont miss any scraps. Now I have started Judy's #8 mystery train ride. Hope that will help some too. BUT I may have to buy backings and I know I will have to get batting. Oh well.......

I used a total of 5 yards from my stash of pre quilted double sided fabric to finish the sandwich part of these baby quilts. I'm happy! :)

What a great quilt, kristakz. It is stunning.

teacher09 you found the perfect use for leftovers.

I on the other hand deserve 10 lashes with a wet noodle. Went to the LQS yesterday because I needed to buy more FQs for the FQ birthday swap. I had already bought some of them previously but then I cleaned my stash. While there, a Moda red-white-and-free jelly roll found its way in my possession. Not quite sure how that happened. I guess I needed to release some estrogen since we were going to the Sportsman's Expo right after and I would be in testosterone hell for the afternoon. Yes, that's it! Hormonal rescue shopping.

Martina, You get a pass...if only to release that estrogen. I personally would give you a pass any day for anything red and white...free or not!

Thanks, Sandy. No - the jelly roll wasn't free. The fabric line is called red-white-and-free.

Great use of stash fabric, retiredteacher09.

Had all this fabric all these magazines....thought...hmmmm...why don't I match some fabric with some of these patterns in some of these magazines....what a concept...LOL. This is called Animal Crackers from the spring 2012 Quilts and More magazine. Fabric is all from my stash. Size is 42.5 X 50.5 and will be used to hide a very ugly renovated wall that just doesn't seem to ever get finished...LOL photo was taken by iPad and does not show how vibrant or the pattern of the material very well at all.
