It’s been a busy week, but I finished this quilt and I’m happy with it. It’s based on the Fabric Cafe pattern called Brick Street. You can find the pattern individually or in their book, Fast & Fun 3-Yard Quilts. I added an extra row to lengthen it.
I also made a small wall hanging quilt for my guild’s challenge, but I can’t show it until after the meeting since it will be voted on and some members might read my blog. 🙂
I didn’t take a photo of the back but this is the American flag print I used on it.
After rearranging fabric all week, I definitely need to use my fabric stash instead of stressing over finding the “perfect” backing.
Here’s the before on the left and after on the right.
While organizing, I decided to do my annual inventory, which I usually do in June, my birthday month. Since I took everything off the shelves, it felt right to do it now.
Here’s a preview of the before and after photo. Tomorrow, I’ll show you where I moved my pre-cuts (mostly fat quarters) and kits. The majority of my kits are just fabric grouped by project but a couple of them were purchased from my local quilt shop. I’ve numbered them and created a list for quick reference so I can easily pull them out and sew when I’m ready.
I really hope there’s something good on T.V. tonight because I’m too tired to do much else than lay on the couch! 🙂
