Stash Report - September 2, 2012

This QOV was made from the pattern "Migration" from The Quilt Asylum. It is a fun quilt to make. The pattern doesn't include the red border, I added it to make the quilt a bit bigger. The background has little red stars and the red border has little white stars. This quilt is going to Colorado. The quilt is 60x75.

I tried two different ways to make the geese - Wing Clipper by Deb Tucker and Fit To Be Geese by Open Gate. I ended up using Wing Clipper's direction for making the geese and Open Gate's ruler for squaring them up. Worked great - perfect geese every time.

This next quilt is going to Sarah's Church Ministry.

The pattern is Glory Bound by Paula Barnes. It was a fun quilt to piece and after trimming all the large 1/2 sq triangles it went together pretty quick. I did not make the smaller star points as 1/2 sq triangles, I left the geese part in one piece as I wanted to use some 2.5 inch squares I already had. 64x64 before washing. Great pattern to use up some scraps or precuts.
