Tra la! It's May!
The lusty month of May!
That lovely month when ev'ryone goes
Blissfully astray.
I did say, "Rabbit, rabbit!" first thing today but I also remember listening to Julie Andrews sing The Lusty Month of May on our Broadway cast LP* of Camelot.
(*LP -- yet another archaic term from the 1960's.)
Barb-the-quilter quilted these for me. I made the red/green earlier this year and the homespun Aunt Vina's Favorite in 2024.
The stash report. Fabric IN, April: 5-3/4 yards, $27.32. Fabric OUT, April: 60-1/2 yards.
Fabric IN, YTD: 6-1/2 yards. $37.32. Average: $5.24/yard. Fabric OUT, YTD: 259-1/4 yards. Net DECREASE: 252-3/4.
I feel very virtuous.
My goal for May is to make at least two dozen placemats for the 2027 Rotary project. I have a batch underway.
Linking up Finished or Not Friday OMG for May
What a fabulous month of April, Nann!!! I love your quilt collages. May should be a cinch.
ReplyDeleteYour fingers must be smoking with as many tops completed and finishes as you had! I'm impressed with how many yards you have decreased from your stash so far this year!--TerryK@OnGoingProjects
ReplyDeleteYou definitely should feel virtous! You got a lot done in April. Trying to decide on a favorite, but I like them all! Well, maybe the guild mystery - love those stars on the gray background!
ReplyDeleteYou had an amazing quilty month! Beautiful projects.
ReplyDeleteYOu had an amazing month!! congrats on finishing the villa rosa challenge!! and LP - too funny.. that is vintage
ReplyDeletei think 2 placemats is a reasonable goal...LOL....nice finishes all nann!
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are all beautiful and you get so much done. (I used to get more done, but my quilty mojo has been lacking lately. I'm trying to get it back!!) And now I know why my washing machine stopped spinning this morning - I forgot the good luck words! (Thankful, though, that it was the rinse on the last of 4 loads and the repair guy is coming already Monday! Far worse things could have happened!) If I say the words this late in the day, do you think I'll be okay?!
ReplyDeleteYes, your month of April was very productive. Trip Around the World is one of my favorite patterns and I like the color combination in yours.
ReplyDeleteWow! You did have a very productive April. Congrats on all the stash usage, that's pretty impressive. Happy stitching this month.
ReplyDeleteWow great productive month ! I had 2 finishes for April🤣
ReplyDeleteWow! You are amazing! And that fabric decrease for the year is very virtuous. :) Good luck with your goal this month.
ReplyDeleteYou should indeed feel virtuous...both in terms of fabric used AND projects created.
ReplyDeleteWow, so productive. Good luck with your May placemats goal, should be a breeze for youl.
