It’s chilly here, but bright, so I snapped some pictures of the new Beach Quilt.

You can’t tell here, but the basket weave batik on the back is washed with a bit of aqua.

This ~~will be~~ SOLD in my Etsy Shop.

So that used 6.5 yards of fabric, some that was long in the stash, and I didn’t buy any this week. We’ll see how long that lasts!

This week: + 0 yards, – 6.5 yards

This year: + 30.75 yards, – 41 yards

Total destashed / ~~added~~ in 2020: 10.25 yards

Take care, everyone, and enjoy your sewing time.

I’m up to 25 yards used, but I am struggling to use fabric as I work on complicate projects that take a lot of time. Fortunately I haven’t bought much fabric YET, so there is still hope I will use 100 yards.

I love the beige with the aqua. Normally, I am not a brown/beige fan, but this quilt looks really good. Hope sales in your Etsy shop are good.

  That’s high praise, coming from you! No, sales were great for the last 6 month, but they’ve taken a dive. Fingers crossed everything gets better soon.
