Prepping...

It's been quite a while since I haven't had a quilt or project

that I needed to make.

The December baby quilt is done and the next one isn't needed until March.

I'm not making any quilts for Christmas gifts this year.

We've pared our list way down,

so there aren't as many gifts to get or make.

I do have a couple of quilts tops that need to be quilted,

but I'm not in the mood.

I'm taking this opportunity to prep some quilts to be made when

the mood strikes.

Reproduction fabrics are not my favorite,

but somehow I ended up with a cabinet full of them.

Last week I took the time to iron all of the fabrics

and roll them up,

ready to be cut.


 

I wasn't kidding when I said I had a cabinet full of reproduction fabrics!

At the end of last week I began cutting.
I have a Go! Cutter and, while there is a bit of waste

using this, the time saved is so worth it.

 

I decided what shapes I wanted to use,
cut the large pieces of fabric into smaller pieces
that would fit onto each die
and began to cut....

4 1/2" HST...

 

Flying Geese Parts

More Flying Geese Parts

for a different quilt

 

Pieces for Log Cabin blocks....
over 90 of them!

I have a few more pieces of fabric to cut and then that job will be done.

Now I have an empty cabinet!


You know I had to play a bit in between cutting!

One down,
who knows how many to go!

There will be a lot of these made, too!

Now to clean up my mess!

Happy Quilting!
