I’ve decided on which quilt I’m going to make for the baby boy my cousin is expecting I mentioned here. I’ve decided to make this X’s and O’s quilt from the Moda Bake Shop:

I have a charm pack of Hushabye Hollow I mentioned in this stash report… gosh, almost a year ago!!

I also have a mini charm pack of it that I’ll probably use to make a border to increase the size of the quilt. In going through my stash reports from last year I now realize I had a bunch of fabrics I could have used for the backing, but when I went out to find the background fabric for this quilt I ended up buying some backing fabric:

Sorry for the bad photo… trying to find a place with good lighting was difficult today!

It’s not a designer fabric, but it’s good quality and I got it on sale so I’m happy with it. Two yards of that along with two yards of light blue Bella Solids (I’m trying to branch out of using whites for backgrounds) and that’s it for my stash this week.

Used this Week: 0 yards

Used year to Date: 0 yards

Added this Week: 4 yards

Added Year to Date: 4 yards

Net for 2019: -4 yards de-stashed

I ended 2018 in the red and I’m starting 2019 the same way!
