Stashbusters Final 2023 and Starting 2024
The Stashbusters Challenge has been fun for the past two years, and it is so easy to do that I decided to continue it in 2024. It is laid back, just report what you have brought in and sent out over the past month, keeping a year to date total. No, you do not have …
Stashbusters December Check In
How are you doing with your Stashbusting? Holiday sewing may get us over the line with finished projects for Thanksgiving and Christmas, the New Year and winter, gifts and decorations. I ended up donating the harvest panels back to the guild freebie table, so one yard out for that. I just ran out of juice …
Stashbusters November
It's been five weeks since our last check-in, have you been sewing during Autumn Jubilee? There were certainly a lot of projects to use up some stash. Several projects in Autumn Jubilee reduced my stash. Using the lovely fall fabrics was delightful. First, 1-1/2 yards out for the Autumn Jubilee apron. Counting out 1/4-yard for …
Stashbusters October (A Week Early) and a Road Trip
Updating early because of Autumn Jubilee, today we check in with our Stashbuster totals for September. Much of what I worked on this month will not be completed until October, so fabric out was a challenge. But the fabric 'in' was a delight! You'll see a lot of these fabrics next month!

Stashbusters August Check In
Time for the August Check in for Stashbusters. Did you finish a project? Did you succumb to the freebie table at guild? Was a bit of retail therapy required during Shop Hop? Did you give away any yardage or scraps? I got a bit ahead this month as I finished Quadrille and can now count …
Stashbusters 2023 June Check In
It was a lean month for finishes for me again in May. Between car club events and family visiting, not much sewing was done. What I did do with the quilt on the frame had to be taken out and restarted which set me back a bit for a finish as well. I managed to …
Stashbusters May
Stashbuster report time! It wasn't a great month for finishes for me. With multiple visits to the ortho doc, and too much time sitting after injections, I got more reading done than anything. The good news is that missing the guild meeting and no shopping time meant no fabric in. I did finish the little …
Stashbusters 2023
Time for our first check in for the new year! Today, report your fabric in and out for January. Every month we'll check in on the first Friday of the month. The goal is to have more out than in at the end of the year. No, you don't have to inventory your stash, just …
A Pillowcase Project
Our small neighborhood group of our guild has decided to do pillowcases for Safelight's shelter. Yes, it is the same place as our Safelight Project Spa Bags. This could not have come at a better time, as I have a lot of fabric, and it will help with the Stashbuster challenge! I may not actually …
