One of my goals for 2014-15 was to reduce the size of my stash and to complete unfinished projects. I've been using what I already have for all the quilts both I and my grandkids made. These are "some" of the cupboards where fabric is stashed, as well as the file cabinets. In addition I had about 4 tubs of cloth. But I have made good progress.
During the winter I made these "valentine" related pillow cases. I can't remember if I sent them to grandkids or friends, or if I have them stashed somewhere.!!! That's what happens when you do a "catch up blog" for the past year -- and why you should blog when things are fresh in your mind. But, hey, at least a took photos...so I know I made something! These used up quite a bit of my random stash.
Quilts I showed at the March 18, 2015 meeting made from my stash.
I have a huge collection of purple fabric, and love this wave pattern that Kathy Hurst taught us.
I used my fall collection of jelly rolls, plus deer panels I'd had for about 10 years.
I have enough left to make another hunting quilt.

Pincushion night...all sorts of zany and practical cushions appeared and were shared. May meeting 2015
Fabrics from around the world were shared at one meeting. I brought samples from Mexico (when we went to the Yucatan) and from Costa Rica and the Panama Canal cruise. I hope to put these into a quilt this next year.
November work day. Debbie taught us how she makes placemats.
This is where I started cutting out my Southwest crazy patch pieces.
