Weekly update: stash report and a good start to August


A short walk close to home on Friday.   Top: compass plant, Culver's root, prairie pinnate coneflower.  Center: tansy, purple coneflower, jewelwood. Bottom: monarda, rosinweed.

It rained all day Saturday--nice and gentle, no wind.  I puttered around indoors.

 Stash report for July:  fabric IN 41.75 yards, $70, average $1.67 per yard.  Fabric OUT 71-5/8 yards.    Year to date:   fabric IN 233-3/4 yards, $307, average $1.31 per yard. Fabric OUT 451-5/8 yards.   That's a net decrease of 218 yards -- hooray!

Hopscotch Butterscotch is a flimsy.  I think the border piano keys should have more dark than medium but for the time being I'm not going to worry about that.   It's going to be donated to a worthy cause eventually.    







I made coin units (5" x 15") in yellow for the August RSC.  







I've chosen brown-and-black batiks for "Sheryl, " the August top-along pattern.  I got this far last evening while watching H is for Hawk on Netflix.  I'll assemble it tonight.


RSC and the top-along were going to be my August goals.   Well, those were easy.   I'm not going to set other quilting goals.   My trip to Scotland (Road Scholar #55) is August 12-29.  I have a lot of not-quilting things to do before I leave.
