I went to the fabric store in the country to get binding for my quilt to auction for the women's shelter. Found one that will work and also found a fabric I want for a quilt using a Kaffe jelly roll. I purchased the binding and left the other one there as it would have been stash for now. Yay for me.!

Yay for you!
think of it as "stash at the store" instead of stash you have to store...

So far so good, 3 days into our vacation and I haven’t shopped. I brought a travel project with me which is occupying my mind and keeping me from temptation. ;)
we’ve seen a few Quilt shop signs but none open when we were driving by so that helps. Maybe I will put a good dent in this ufo I brought to work on and go home with money.

ckcowl; what a plan!

I purchased someone's destash and found these 2 fabrics within. They are very old fashioned and not to my taste at all....but they look perfect together. I had about 3 yards of the white and 2 of the green.

The block is a simple Cats Cradle. A true one would use Birds in the air block not hsts.

I miscut the side setting triangles. And of course there is no more so i had to improvise with the pink. (There was some *very creative* language!)

The giftee is my Aunt. Still need to do the back but I have some white green pink leftovers. And I have some leftover blocks from my cousin's wedding quilt...so now to work on the back....

Pleased to say first t-shirt quilt is done and delivered. I was able to get it quilted before we left for graduation and hand stitched the binding while up to DD's. I forgot to take a picture, but hope to have DD get one for me. I used 3 1/3 yards of fabric in sashing, borders, and binding. Of that I pulled 1 2/3 yards from my stash. Now onto finishing number 2 which is almost done.

It looks like someone tried to highjack this thread. If possible I hope this message goes through alright. Here it is going on the Beginning of June and I am staying as close as ever to working fully from my stash including all but one backing. But I shared that last time I posted.
