That is the most beautiful tree skirt I've ever seen!

Those fabrics are so pretty on that skirt. Nice job.

I am proud to say that I do not have that much in my "stash", but the scraps can add up to some heavy yardage and the kits I have yet to do.

I don't really have a very large quilting stash, but it is enough for about 8 quilts. So, I don't know that it'll last all year (I really doubt it), but I'm in for using up the stash I do have.

I actually can say I busted some stash. Finished up a table runner and a DQ. Goodness me, something actually done. 1.5 yards down.

Working on a quilt for our pastor who is very ill. It's all stash and a lot of scraps, even the backing and I think I have enough batting too. Yay!

I just finished a little scrappy baby quilt. Trying to use up 2" scraps, this is what I came up with. Not a thing of beauty but I used up scraps! I finished 2 nice dog beds. Making a shawl for the nursing home.

I have three BOM projects started for this year, will use up fabric with the Dorcas Group making quilts for the nursing home, have 13 quilt tops to finish and have made a goal of utilizing my stash vs shopping for new. It is not a hard and fast rule but is working good at this point. I could not empty my stash within 20 years as it has taken longer than that to accumulate it. Hoping to finish all the wip tops this year. Have been inspired so much by this quilting board and its wonderful members.
