Nice quilt!!! I love the way you incorporated the white pattern.

I love scrappy quilts and this one is a beauty.

Count me in! Organizing is one of my main goals this year. Joining one or more of these swaps is a good idea! Helps with the reduction process.

Put me down too! I have 3 quilt kits that were gifted to me (one even has the backing) that I plan on doing and another QIP that I will finish. Those don't even require my stash! I only plan on buying backing fabric as needed. Once I get through those, stash only. So many quilts, so little time :-)

This sounds like a great idea but I fell off the wagon before I got started!:o LQS had a 3 hour sale on Jan 1...it's hard to say no to 50% off!

Jarenie: Love what you've done with your scraps. The quilt is really inviting, sit down and read or just cuddle for warmth.

Connie, lovely quilt!!

I know, right? I now get text coupons as well and my DH is a total enabler, forwarding me his coupons also. I've told him a couple times "Thanks, but I don't have anything I need right now." He seemed a little confused at that response the first time, lol, but I think he's learning that I'm trying to change my spending habits.

I am in! Working on finishing UFOs and the backings will come from the stash. Hope to bust a about 15 yds to finish these. Woohoo!

I just finished a quilt top made entirely from my stash! Step one on the stash reduction/fabric moratorium for this year :) Actually, I have two I can call completed today, but the second one was made last year as a block of the month, so I pulled the fabric from stash then and just finished the borders this week. So I won't count that into my 2015 achievements :)

This top has a scrappy white background, because I didn't have enough of any one white for the quilt. And scrappy reds. The black is the leftover the from the last quilt top I just finished.
