Sunday stash report

While goofing off in the hotels this week,I managed to finish the hand quilting of the jar. Spent the day yesterday sewing the hanging sleeve on and doing the binding (1 yard)







I also finished the quilting (FINALLY) and added the binding to it to sew down this afternoon. 4 yards + for the top and 5 yards of backing and binding (9)




They say it takes 20+ yards of fabric for the rug- wow!!! I'm glad that's done. I'm cutting strips to start another one soon. But I need to find some lights to do a pattern.....I think the white muslin is going to get dirty too fast- maybe a tea dye will help......(20)




So I'm going to say I finished using 30 yards of fabric in these projects....I'm hoping to have a good report ( not as good as the last 2 weeks) next week as I'm going to start quilting the Girl Scout quilts this week :)

Oh and no purchases this week either not even legal buys :)

Hi Kim,
I discovered your blog from Judy L.'s stash busting report. Is there a blog or website with directions to make the rug? Looks like a neat project.

Thanks!
