Thanks so much for the info. I would definitely check that out. Might get the DWR done yet!

PaperPrincess, there are about three or four segments of Ebony's videos on the DWR. I do use my Accuquilt quite a bit and it was especially useful for the DWR. Made it much easier.

Who knew the quilting club had a stash. And we are going to be organizing it next month. I am definitely looking forward to that. I am using two of my stash fabrics and two from the quilting club for my Oh Susannah BOM for the next set of community quilts. I'm so excited!

I packed up a whole lot of boxes of fabric and yarn this weekend. (The house goes on the market soon). I was so surprised at how much yarn I've collected. The fabric didn't surprise me. It's a really good time to retire and get busy using some of this all up!

Wow!! Busy people here and I love the fact that you all used your stash! Such nice pictures of your wonderful work.
I have the DWR die and am looking forward to using it. It's good to hear the success stories!
We've had a wedding, a funeral (celebration of life for my wonderful aunt) mothers day and a couple of BD's. All this past week. I've also had several showings of the house. My goodness, how do we do it all!!

Very nice . i love these strippy quilts. They are so homey and charming.

I went to the quilt shop for a meeting and didn't buy any fabric so I'm feeling good about that. But I did go to the sewing shop next door and bought an 80 dollar small table for my sewing machine. Does that count?

TK: Of course it doesn't count. The table is a tool to help you use your stash. Ever wonder if it was just cheaper to buy the fabric? I recently splurged on a new sewing machine. Three or four yards of fabric would have been MUCH cheaper.
