I read about My Precious QAL at Kelly's blog today. The rules are basically that you'll have to use fabrics that are already in your stash, not the newest collection you've purchased. It's going to go all through this Summer so I'll have plenty of time to come up with something. It doesn't have to be a huge finished quilt, but if it's a small project it'll need to be finished. She'll draw a winner every month. She has a few more details, so if you're interested in doing this, just click on the button and hop on over to her!
I have plenty of hoarded fabrics, I'll just have to dig them out. I know I have a lot of red and white fabrics from Alex Anderson which I got for Christmas a while back ago (I think the collection is Redwork Romance?) and a collection called Annabelle by Leslie Gladman for P&B Textiles. I know I also have some yummy French country style fat quarters that I got a few years ago at a quilt show. What a better opportunity to empty and re-arrange my sewing room. I've been procrastinating on that one for a few months now waiting to have a full day that I can spend on it. By now I realized that it'll take a lot more than a full day to do everything, so I might as well just start.
I don't have much to report on right now, it's a nice rainy day outside and I'm catching up with my Google reader. Does that count as quilting? :) Have a wonderful rest of the weekend!
What a fun challenge! I cant wait to see what you come up with :)
