Challenge - Day 5

As promised my camera is back.  Yay!

Day 5 was a most productive day.  As many of you know, a few years back I purchased an inordinate amount of fabric from a woman who was closing up shop.  I bought the fabric sight unseen and even though it was very exciting receiving all of those boxes in the mail, it seems I have barely made a dent in my stash.  What the heck was I thinking??? . . .

 Day 5 included making more blocks for the scrap quilt
 
When this quilt is finished it will include a sample of most of the fabrics I purchased.
 
And since I will not be including this quilt in the giveaway, I will instead give away a generous amount of fabric.  This will be great for anyone who is making charity quilts.  Be sure to visit again in June when the giveaway is announced.  Of course, I hope you'll visit every day of this challenge, but I understand, we all get busy.  No worries.
 
And in case anyone forgot how much fabric I have, here's a little reminder.  Unfortunately this is not all of it!  Yikes!!

OMG - you could open you own store OR hold little classes where the students purchase fabrics for the class from your lovely stash.

Yikes indeed! But what fun! What a great idea to make a scrap quilt with sample of each of the fabrics. I usually remember where and when I got each of the fabrics in my stash, so it's fun to sew quilts or look at them and enjoy the memories surrounding that time. This quilt will certainly be a great reminder for you of the arrival of those exciting boxes!
