Sunday Stash - The Exception


Ah... sweet Kona. I knew when I was writing my Stash Manifesto that I didn't want to give up my monthly installments of Candy Coated Collections. My guildmate, Aimee of Candy Coated Quilts, started these last year and I love her colour combos!

I received the January and February bundles at our Exec meeting a while back (we're planning a retreat! Yay!!!). January's is inspired by Chinese New Year. Gung hay fa choy... I don't know the Mandarin for belated. ☺
Even though you can likely read the tags, there's Canary, Cardinal, Persimmon, Riveria, and Aqua. I can tell you that Canary and Riveria have already felt the cold blade of the rotary cutter. Gotta use that stash, y'all!
And February's bundle has my Girl Guide heart singing. I wonder if Aimee knew Thinking Day was this month! Camping and northern lights? Yes, please!
 
Nightfall, Celestial, School Bus, Storm, and Breakers. Definitely some faves in this bundle!

I'm linking up with the every glittery Molli Sparkles for Sunday Stash.  Yes, I know it's Saturday. Pay me no mind people... it's already Sunday in Molli's downunder world. Or I would have linked up with Molli if he hadn't handed the glittery torch to Ms. Midge while he parties it up at Quilt Con. I'm okay with that... since it'll be my own hands taking that very bling encrusted torch on Sunday, March 20th!

And tomorrow I'll be linking up with Barn Berry Designs' 4x7 Challenge - Week 3 Update!

  1. Oooooo, that February bundle sings. I don't think subscriptions count in not buying fabric, by the way. So totally reasonable. :)

  5. Pretty bundles! Is this a project/collection through your modern quilt guild?

  6. I have a quarterly Liberty club that was exempted too. I do not think the equivalent of half a metre of Liberty every three months was going to upset my stash-reducing apple cart, especially as I had signed up for it before the manifesto. :)

  8. I don't do much with solids, but then I see bundles like these and think why aren't you doing more with solids. I love them both.

  9. Wow it's hard to be on a stash diet with those lovelies around! I wouldn't be able to resist either.

  14. I particularly love the first group of stash. The second one is beautiful too. But it's the yellow, which is one of my favorite colors that had me before you flipped to February.
    I broke my manifesto, Jenn. We are not even a quarter of the way through the year. I went on an online shopping spree. Got some amazing deals and fabric for the back of quilts, which is generally hard for me to find. It happened today.
    I will share as it comes in. New stash from three shops. Gotta get my willpower back on.
