SBChallenge - progress update ...

I didn't do any sewing yesterday, I spent my time sorting and cutting the remaining fabrics from my personal Stash Busting Challenge. I kept the Kaffe Fassett nickels and the Thimbleberries FQs seperate. I pulled a couple more sets of fabrics that went together nicely to make incubator covers.

What remained didn't look like it would play together nicely, but Bonnie Hunter assures us that her Scrappy Bargello pattern will utilise even the most ugly fabric ... so I started cutting!

I now have a pile of 80 x 2.5" strips for a lapsized Bargello, enough 3.5" strips for a Scrappy Trips incubator cover and some 2" strips which may just go into my scrap boxes. Additional fabric left over are 2 x 1m pieces and 3 x 0.5m pieces which may become backings or may just go back into general stash. The end of my Challenge is in sight and it feels good :)
