Welcome aboard!
Really inspiring. I love it.
Much destashing! I’ve had those felt mushroom cutouts for YEARS, lol.
HELLO DE-STASHERS! May prompts are herrrrrrre! Also listed in the second post in this topic. WOO!
May
Color: Pink
Pattern: Ombre/Fades
For: Transitions
Challenge: Think literal, metaphorical, and even metaphysical transitions. Doors, porches, & balconies, hallways, foyers, porticoes, etc. Cars, trains, buses, bikes, skates, your own two feet. New class, new job, new house, new role. New life phases or outlooks even. Also, the old versions of all of those things.
Last day of sign ups for the make a pouch & fill it swap! It’s going to be a terrific stash buster for me, I have so much rando goodness I’m inspired to use for this!
They were old stash when I posted about them March 2020
Then I found them again this March
I think they are finally used up now, whew!
I love all these projects! Working from my fabric stash is so much fun, but I have been neglecting it lately. You guys are inspiring me to dive back in!
Voting is now open for the inspired along challenge, see the entries and vote here
Done!
I managed a couple of stashy projects lately. The mirror for this as well as the various spray paints used in distressing came from stash. I suppose the book covers might be considered stash, too
The flower sack towels and two of the four HTV for these towels were stash.
Those are great, even though you had to buy more to make the one…ha ha ha…at least you used up some stash!
I am only working from stash, mostly sewing projects. I hope to get to the point this year where I am only buying for a current project…yeah…one can dream, right?
I am finding myself being more easily able to stick to this policy for fabric and paper lately. I can’t commit to 100%, but I keep catching myself before the actual purchase!
I can’t help but sift through the remnant bins…
OMG. Right? I do look most of the time! BUT I have been good at refusing lately. Mostly.
I have also been able to stop myself short of purchasing…especially online…I look and sometimes even fill my cart, but then I wait a day or two…and usually, by then, I find something else I am interested in…I am trying to control my impulse buying, which is a product of my mental state of boredom…
I have been known to give myself a “cooling off period” on an online shopping cart, too! Sometimes I remove a few things, sometimes I empty it.
Ditto on the cool down period on my fabric shopping cart!
Impossibly difficult to photograph, finally busted stash & hung bunches of beads & crystals in the bedroom windows.
The big chunky things are dyed driftwood, gift from @MzBee .
We expect a very rainbowish weekend!
Oh, fun!
Whimsical use of stash! Love the big old clear crystals…the rainbows must be incredible!
