Something new….
I am always thinking about ways to use my fabric stash. I get an idea, so excited!! Make one or two, get bored. Or run out of steam. Then I sit and wait for the next idea to pop up. But I just thought of an idea with “LEGS”. A perfect ongoing project. I can use both stash and scraps.
I am going to call my idea the S.S. Holiday. S and S for STASH and SCRAPS. And HOLIDAY. I will make table runners for whichever holiday catches my fancy.
And not just the in-your-face, decorations everywhere holidays. Such as Valentine’s Day, St Patrick’s Day, Halloween. Think whimsical, unusual, funny and silly.
I will make at least one a month, maybe more. Depends on how much time I have and which holidays I already have fabric for. No doubt I will buy new fabric so I won’t commit to only using stash. But I won’t go overboard. A Fat Quarter here and there. Even just a half yard will be more than enough should I see a fabric PERFECT for a holiday.
I have my first table runner almost finished. You will have to come back to see it. š
What is your FAVORITE HOLIDAY?
Halloween, followed by Towel Day (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Towel_day), followed by International Talk Like a Pirate Day (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk_like_a_pirate_day). š
LOL!! Those are too funny. Never heard of either. On Talk Like a Pirate Day, do I get to cuss up a storm!! š (Or is that Sailor Day, lol.)
I like the Talk Like A Pirate Day! Had that as my language setting on FB for some time. *lol*
Love your quilting and thanks for the nice comment on my blog!
