Friday check in: stash report and OMG November

 

 Rabbit, rabbit! 

Welcome to November. As I write the sun is shining and it's about 20 degrees cooler than earlier in the week.   







It was windy as I walked in  Lyons Woods (Wednesday) and  Capt. Daniel Wright Woods (Thursday)  


Fall fungus.

Stash report, October:

Fabric in:  86-1/2 yards, $186.50. average $2.15 per yard. Most of that was from Barb M's estate sale.   Fabric out:  a paltry 33-1/4 yards.  

YTD fabric in: 1446-1/2 yards, $2959.50, average $2.04 per yard.

YTD fabric out:  778-2/4 yards.

The half-log cabin blocks are finished but they won't count as "fabric used" until I assemble them. 

One Monthly Goal for November:   (1) quilt two flimsies, (2) sew blocks, maybe flimsies, using a different genre from homespun, (3) pull fabric for Old Town, the 2024 Quiltville mystery.  (Coral and turquoise and red and neutral -- love the colorway.)

Linking up with OMG 2024  Finished or Not Friday

  1. I was up early this morning and knew it was the perfect time to "Rabbit Rabbit", but with my track record I figured it was safer to keep quiet and not jinx the election!

    As a reminder, the last time I rabbited was January 1st, 2020. You know how that turned out!

    Those half-log blocks are so yummy!

  3. Those are great blocks! I bet there are lots of fun layouts you can make with them. I want to get some quilts finished this month, too. I have been awfully slow on that end this year!

  5. Well, I had to look up why you were saying rabbit, rabbit! Never heard of that superstition before!

  6. That quarter log cabin is fascinating. I'm trying for a couple finishes (mainly binding) before I start anything new, but a few test blocks couldn't hurt.

  9. Good luck with your goals. I, too, had to look up "rabbit, rabbit." I learned something new, which is a daily goal of mine.
