Yeah! Good solution. Quilt out of your guild's UFO pile and some odds and ends out of your stash! Keep solving those problems and finishing warm hugs quilts for other folks!

Gemm, your binding choices are excellent -- add interest and better than whatever fabric you didn't have enough of! Creative and beautiful!

Another way to decrease stash; mentee wants to make pillowcase for brother. I give her options and she chose 1 yd.

Thanks for the encouragement, everyone! :-)

Petthefabric - destashing together? A double win! :-)

I'm so, so late but I'm here with you all finally! Some wonderful ideas here. Glad to be back. I have been a good girl with only one purchase for a backing which doesn't count luckily. I'm currently working on a project piecing and looking for another to make from stash. I like the variety of having at least two going at once. Keeps me going. More than three confuses me though and takes up a lot of space. I also usually have a quilt that I'm quilting on too (different machine). Takes me longer to complete I guess but they get done sooner or later. I had surgery around Thanksgiving. I'm doing well (better than the doctor's even expected) but it's a reminder to use that fabric. I bought it cause I liked it so i need to use it. Happy to be on the train with you all😁

Went to LQS with intention to purchase. What I want is out-of-style, regionally unavailable and off season. Happy to say, I held tight and didn’t buy anything. Yeah! Me!
may go to Joann’s, but maybe change plans. Back to shop stash.

My stash is calling for black/white quilt.

Pet, congratulations on showing the strength of a quilting warrior princess! Wait for just what you want and exactly what you need!

I went to my quilt group's work day today and finished a baby quilt top, layered it. Now, how to quilt it? All from stash even the backing. I also cut all the pieces for another Pladish quilt. Made block "A" this afternoon and will move on to "B" and "C" tomorrow afternoon and Monday! Again all from stash! Not sure if I have a back for this one. I will post photos of progress tomorrow or more likely Monday. Lions football may get in my way tomorrow. OOPS! Tee-Hee-Hee
