as of right now, i only have three projects envisioned thus far for my fabric stash. the first one involving all my buzz lightyear/toy story fabric prints. i think when i counted, there were 13 different fabrics that i have collected over the years, and since i made the triangle music quilt last summer, i am 99.9% certain that is what i'm going to do with all these prints. the second project has been in the making since at least 2011, if not before... those dang squares i have been cutting year after year have finally come to a pause. i made it through everything my mom destashed and cut my squares from it, and then caught up on fabric from various recent projects of mine. when i say recent, i mean as far back as sewvivor stuff... oops.
the third one i had to think about, because i simply did not put the fabric in my cabinet. instead, it is in my desk drawer. when i bought my new bed last july, i knew i would need a bigger quilt to go on it. i found a collection of moda fabric i loved, and a paper pieced pattern to make it in. i really need to get on making that at some point as well... i don't know how much longer i can take having a twin sized quilt (or three) on my queen sized bed.
i know i have an entire collection of fabric i bought back in 2009 or so that is awaiting a baby girl to be born at some point... but as of right now it seems like the pregnancy/wedding bug has not struck any of my friends just yet. i will gladly be sharing the process of this "sew your stash" process, especially if it means i have some finished projects in the end :)
I am not participating in this #sewyourstash2015 I'm in a #buildyourstash mode right now :)
ReplyDeletei think it is safe to say i have a little bit of both going on right now.
ReplyDeleteexcept joann's has been a big fat let down lately.
Your fabrics look lovely all neatly arranged. I do think it's easier to sew your stash when you can see it easily and don't forget what's there. I think we can all get carried away buying what everyone else is buying, so sometimes it is good to have a period of just sewing what we already own. That's what I'm trying to achieve in 2015.
ReplyDeleteGreat job organizing your stash. I find that being able to see it all helps me more easily use my stash. Your Toy Story fabric collection sounds fun.
