Tuesday, March 9th, I wanna dig in!!!

I know, it has been ages since I have posted, but I have been busy....with what? I don't know, but much of my busyness has been due to this enormous stash in the basement. I have sorted, folded, had friends come over to pick what they want.... I think it is getting more under control.
I want to start using it, but I can't justify it until some things are finished that are in process. This particular piece: has been on my design wall for about 6 months. Straight line seams do not appeal to me, as it is so boring, but I really like the way it turned out. This was from a Jelly roll from Cherrywood fabric that I purchased with a Christmas gift certificate from Celia a few years ago. I literally used every bit of it, the remaining pieces were too small to even put in my scrap stash. The inner and outer border is a hand dye from the inherited stash and this:is what I am going to use for the binding and the backing. I also bought some variegated thread at JoAnne's last week to quilt it.
OK, that means I can move that from the column, "in process", to "to be quilted".
