I have not posted in a while.   I've been busy.   Finished my college degree in July.   Then there was a trip to Phoenix for 10 days.    The job search is going slow..     and now in my free time,  this is what I have been doing....  Okay  I did  some baking..  


This is my graduation quilt.   FOR ME.   I found this pattern over at the Stitchin Post in April.   All fabrics were from my stash.  Nope I didn't buy anything extra.   I am thinking the stash is shrinking.  hmm.   Still a ways to go yet.  
 

 
 


 A wonderful block swap on the 4inchquiltgroup@yahoo.com .  Nine patches and snowball all 6" blocks.  Yes, another attempt to get the stash under control.    Awesome quilters and friends.  


Next,  I volunteered to make a quilt for the Eugene, Oregon Chapter of Relay for Life.  This was my spring break project  and again -  all  out of my stash.    My friend Veronica is a cancer survivor  and she rocks.   A woman of amazing faith.  


 
 
 
 
In September I took a class that Bonnie Hunter taught,  I was busy for a few days getting all of the blocks done.   This week, is the EVQ meeting and I hope to have the binding on the quilt by then  one more long side.    I bought no fabrics -  a real stash buster here.  lol   Bonnie is an awesome instructor and offers quilters many free patterns.  

 
 
A baby quilt project I started last week.   A simple baby quilt and again -
Fabrics were all out of my stash.
