August progress

I only finished one project in August, the baby quilt for Desiree. It was PIG so it was mostly from stash but I purchased a backing for it. So far so good...except on Labor Day Weekend I ventured into JoAnn's to get some notions. I was thinking about OTR the new mystery Bonnie Hunter has posted. I love her quilts and the previous mystery quilts have been great. I got this notion that I needed some rust colored fabric tho if I wanted to do it. I didn't think the fabric was on sale, just the fat quarters, but I was wrong...fabric was $1.00 off per yard. That makes it better than their other sales, so I couldn't help myself...here's what followed me home! It could have been worse, I did put some back :)

Looks like OTR to me! I really should have shopped my stash first, but I know I don't really have alot in rusts and browns and the golds always seem to get used.

For the month of August I sewed 30.5 hours (just .5 hours short of my goal, but didn't make up for previous months losses), purchased 8.25 yards of fabric, and used 5 yds. I updated the sidebars to reflect the above.
