While looking through blogs I found a couple of simple but very effective quilts and thought Mmmmm summer is on its way and I'm sooooo over winter so yesterday I pulled out of my stash all my happy,bright and yummy fabrics and today I ironed them all and started cutting them up into 4" and 5" strips which in turn turned into these two gorgeous piles of SUMMER YUMMINESS I'm just waiting till my September uni holidays when I'll start putting them both together.....I wonder if I'll be able to wait that long?
I've cut way too many squares for both the quilt tops I'm going to be working on so I think after I've finished making both my tops I'll be having a giveaway with the left over squares.....what do you think??? Stay tuned it may be sooner than you think LOL :)
P.S:You'd think with all this cutting I did today my stash would have shrunk but nooooo it's still way too big!

lol, its funny how stashes dont shrink,i love the fabric you have chosen Barb
Our stashes are like single celled organisms.....they keep splitting and growing! I like the winter and I'm trying not to think of summer being so close! LOL
Its good how the stash doesnt diminish :) Means there is more to sew up and make wonderful things. I am liking your fabrics you have cut up Barb :) Cant wait to see what you sew them into :) Hugs Vicki x
Those colors are gorgeous. I have some really lovely bright colors for my next quilt.Having a sea change I think.
That fabric looks yummy! I have the same problem...no matter how much fabric I use up, there never seems to be any more room in my sewing corner! LOL
Pretty strips you have there - so glad you left some for another time.
These will be fun for spring for sure.
Bet you can't wait 'til next month.
Looking forward to see the finished quilts
