October Stash Report:
I found a new-to-me quilt shop in Pensacola, A&E Pharmacy (yes, really), so I picked up a couple of half yards of black & white prints. Next time we go down there, I'll take a list and swatches for matching. They carry everything, all the major fabric brands and latest collections.
October IN: 1-1/4 yards (two half yards blk& wht; 1/4 yd for Crayon Challenge)
October OUT: 1-1/2 yards (Crayon Challenge front and back)
YTD IN: 86-3/8 yards
YTD OUT: 106-1/4 yards
YTD Net Change:19-7/8 yards OUT

Doesn't really sound like much for November, but some of those are time-consuming, and with Murphy around, time in the sewing room just isn't happening as much these days. The joys of puppyhood!
Linking up with Patchwork Times
You had quite a busy October; it sounds like a lot given all the traveling you did to me! I hope you have a joyous and wonderful November.
ReplyDeleteYour puppy is adorable. I'll bet it is chaos at your home!! Love the lettered/numbered black/white FQ. I'll have to do some looking for it. Happy Trick or Treat Week. Sandi
ReplyDeleteMurphy's really cramping your style ;-). That is such an adorable picture of him ❤️️
ReplyDeleteI would love to have a Murphy around to use as my excuse for not getting my "to do list" done. :) He is adorable. Really like the 2 fabrics you picked up.
ReplyDeleteI like to blog my goals for the month as well and to report back on them. Not sure anyone else is interested but it keeps me accountable to myself and helps me to work out what I have to do. The fabrics you chose are lovely. I do like text prints!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on another month of being in the black! Good luck with your November goals. Those get harder to manage as the holidays creep in.
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteYou have been so productive! Your projects are so pretty, but I love your bee block! I do see the blowing snowflakes in the middle of your block! Such a beautiful block! Thank you for sharing!
