I'm so curious to see your quilt finished. It is one of my favorites of all the ones I've seen. It's so "bumblebee-y" with all those fun stripes and sunny yellows! (;

Just lovely! I've always said that if you buy things you love, they'll all come together somehow. You certainly proved that with you stash fabric quilt!

It's sort of a forced thing. I'm a teacher from Arizona who can not find work in Michigan, so I protect what income we do have by forcing myself to try to "scrap it" first.

I like it. Nice! It makes me want to line mine up and see what they look like too.

Yellowtruckgirl - thanks so much. My colors are certainly different than yours. I will adjust a little bit probably (redo, eliminate, add) before I am done, but it has been an interesting ride! Thanks for the compliment. Will be sorry to see class end.

Well - about four hours ago I wrote a brilliant (if I say so myself) message to you and hit some weird button on my keyboard in error ---whoosh, it's gone!! GRRRRR. Suffice is to say I love your mix of colors. I had the same issues with stash, so I can relate. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I love your color choices. Just goes to show that there's nothing wrong with using what you've got instead of buying more fabric! All the blocks have just the right balance between scrappy and cohesive. I think my favorite is the black and white stripey circle of geese. It's got attitude!

I almost didn't do that one that way. I decided when I auditioned the fabric, "Hey, what the heck. What have I got to lose?"

I like the black sashing, it really showcases each block

I've played with different sashing colors on this. I initially wanted to keep with the whole yellow thing, but then found the black to give it that extra oomph.

Thank you. It was a challenge just taking scraps from my stash to make these work each month.
