Stitch from Stash Update February 2015

Month: February

Spent: $12.68

Earned: 0

Carryover: $12.32

I did much better this month with my budget than last month. I was in the red last month so I didn't spend anything this month and subtracted the overage from last month for the carryover. 

I did finish the JBW Design - French Country Spring Basket, done on 16ct cream Aida fabric with Classic Colorworks - Eve's Leaves floss. I stared this design Spring 2014. I am happy to see it finished. 

Now to pick my next stitching project from my stash. 

Happy Stitching!

The Totally Useless Stitch A Long 2015

This in my first posting for the 2015 TUSAL. The TUSAL is when I post a picture of my ORT jar on the day of the new moon. (I am a day late)  An ORT is a little bit of something left over which for me are threads or sometimes little pieces of fabric scraps. 

I emptied my jar on 12/31/14 and started new for 2015. 

The TUSAL is organized by It's Daffycat and all the rules can be found on her blog. (Http://itsdaffycat.blogspot.com) 

These green and red threads are from a Christmas piece I didn't finish in time for Christmas 2014, so I already have a Christmas piece done for 2015. 

Thank you for visiting.

Monday Morning Star Count

I am almost finished with my Grant Park hexi table runner. I have the binding ready to go and the backing all picked out. It just needs to be sandwiched and quilted. I find the quilting part to be the hardest decision for me to make when it comes to quilting. I can't figure out how I want to quilt it, free motion, hand quilt, so it will sit around in a plastic bag for awhile. (so sad) 

Sorry for the fuzzy picture, not a good picture day. 

I am linking up with Jessica over at Life Under Quilts for her Monday Morning Star Count,

Monday Morning Star Count

Now that the holiday is almost over, I hope to get these 13 flowers sewn to the quilt.  

One of my goals for the new year is to finish the Flower Garden quilt. 

I better get back to basting.  

Happy New Year to all!

Here is a current picture of the quilt.

I need about 50 more flowers!
