Stash Busting

I'm determinant to reduce my stash; mostly so I can buy more fabric as there are so many lovely new lines on the market.

This quilts top is made with one jelly roll (Just Wing It by Moda) plus about 2 yards of white fabric. Although I have a few in my possession, it's the first time I've used a jelly roll as so far I just couldn't make myself open and unroll one. But I must say it was a joy to work with and it all came together easily.

For this quilt I've cut the strips myself. A few years ago I was very much into the shabby chic look and still have plenty of those fabrics left. I think it will go well with my mum's decor in her house. As both quilts are for Christmas presents, I better get going with quilting them. 

Have you seen the free Block of the Month Jackie from Canton Village Quilt Works is organizing? If not, take a look here.

In my quest to reduce my stash I am playing along. Here's my first block. Now I can't wait for next  month's pattern.

Thanks for stopping by.
