One of the things I’ve been pondering for some time is a quilt made with my precious stash of Tula Pink’s Prince Charming.
I jumped on the quilting bandwagon long after this was the fabric du jour, but I was very lucky to find bundles of it on a couple of different sites around last Black Friday. I have a fat quarter bundle of each of the 4 colour ways, plus a yard of each colour way of the frog princes. After much pondering, rethinking and rejigging, I’ve had an idea in mind for exactly how I want to use it all for a couple of months now, I just need the time to sit down and actually make it.
Enter Kelly and her new QAL:
Nothing like a good prize incentive to give you the kick up the backside to actually do something ;o) We shall see how I do though, as there are other things that I HAVE to make first. There are link parties looking to run once a month til August though, I MUST be able to make one by then. I might even get my Echo quilt done by then too…
Come on, who else wants to actually break into their precious stash?
ha ha – don't PONDer too much over this one! Looks good.
I already broke into my precious stash do I'll miss this one. But you should totally do it! It feels so good to use that stash an get to examine those fabrics up close! (btw- if you decide on your pattern and find you run short of something let me know. I have a pretty big collection of prince. I'm a tula freak!)
i am breaking into my stash of hope valley… not sure what i will be making yet but i have a feeling i am going to love it. i can't wait to see what you make with your prince charming!
Ah, Katy and her prince charming…I love the idea of this QAL but I don`t have anything I haven`t actually cut into!
You're gonna need a larger flat. Giggle.
Hugs
Another Start-A-Long!
I broke into my precious stash for the swoon along. So far I am happy except I keep trying to make it bigger which means I have had to add to my stash a couple times to have enough FQs for the quilt 🙂
Good idea – just the push we all need to use the stuff we collect but never sew with.
I could but *all* my stash is precious….
I'm in on this one too x
I can't wait to see what you make! I broke into my Parisville…I hear Tula herself is offering a prize!
How fun! I feel like there should have been more esses, though… My Preciousssss. :>
Oh it's so hard though isn't it! I have quite a few favourites that I just take out and look at – did manage to finally get to grips with Terrain though, so maybe I'm getting there!
I can't quite cut into my Tula yet… Maybe your project will inspire me.
Sigh. Too many projects, not enough time. I might start my epp good folks quilt I have been thinking about for months…
I joined the flickr group and am trying to decide if there is time for this and also which fabric I might be willing to cut up. Good for you to make a quilt with your favourite fabrics, I love that line and had a bit of it for a while. I used much of it right away so it never got to the hoarded stage.
Not me. I'm up to my eyes in bears. I have a large stash that is there for when I can't make bears any more, and when I don't know what to do with myself…???!!! I can't see that ever happening.
Hugs
Never seen the Prince Charming range and fallen in love with the red and turquoise (top one) .. off to find some right now. Thanks for the tip. xx
Do it. Do it do it do it. Imagine how happy you'll be when you have a quilt finished with your precious fabrics. Wouldn't that rock? Get to stitching, my friend.
Katy, I have a stash of that fabric also…I just could not get over the frogs…but not sure why..looking forward to seeing what you do with it..perhaps you can inspire me to cut into it!
Woo hoo! Good for you! Can't wait to see what you do with these lovelies 🙂
Ooooh, I don't have a quilting stash but I do have a mohair stash and I have certain special colors/textures that I'm saving for that very special bear. Maybe I'll break in to it in honor of you finally deciding to use your special stash! I look forward to seeing what you make :o) Hugs, Janice
Oooo, beautiful fabrics!
I think the Precious QAL is a marvelous idea!
Can't wait to see what you're making!
Prince Charming will be perfect for your quilt! The colors are just so pretty!
I was super excited to have found some Tula Pink at the bolt end store. It was just a piece, but I love it! I have a half yard bundle of AMH Folksy Flannel that I really want to make into a quilt for myself, but I just haven't had the time to start it! Maybe if I get some more time, I can join in later. Yours is going to be great though! You're so talented and that stack is gorg!
Sounds like fun.. Those fabrics look fabulous – bet you will come up with something really lovely with them. I am very tempted, but I only have one superstash fabric.. It would be rather a dull creation!
I so want to jump on this bandwagon but I am up to my ears in projects. Can't wait to see what you make with the Tula Pink
It's so fun to see this fabric and will be even more fun to see transformed! Take care. Deb.
