I am using fabrics from my stash (one of my frugal goals for the year). I did go to JoAnn's today and use my Christmas gift card. After 15 years my rotary cutter died. My cutting mat had also become very brittle. A big "thank you" to my DH for such a thoughtful gift. I'll enjoy the new rotary cutter and mat for many years.
My goal for this week is to finally finish the border on my Civil War Chronicles quilt. I would like to get it to the quilter this spring. I'm only a year late in finishing the 2011 block of the month quilt. I really haven't enjoyed this block of the month but I know the finished quilt will be awesome.

That will be a good size quilt!
What fun colors and prints. Yep, when it's touted as one thing you can figure it to be another...fast versus time consuming. Small blocks seem to be that way, and because it takes so many...well...time will tell.
Yes, a new mat and cutter is a gift that lasts and lasts and keeps on giving.
It will be wonderful when it's finished. Yea-new rotary cutter and met. You certainly make use of both!
It's going to be gorgeous. I love the pretty bright colors you're using and it's always good to use up what you already have.
I love this idea. It seems so simple, but I never thought of it!
