Even though it is "summer vacation," I've been working my butt off at work. I'm trying to set boundaries and remind people that I am not a 12-month employee, but with the pandemic requiring us to rethink how we are going to conduct school next year, I guess it is understandable that I'd be called upon more often than in a usual summer.
I let people know, however, that I was going to rural New Hampshire last week to spend a socially distant week with my sisters and their families (how weird not to hug and to only interact outdoors and on screened in porches, but we do what we must to keep everyone healthy), and I spent a blissful week (mostly) unplugged.
I read, I played games, I swam, I hiked, I knit. I didn't sew, but I made up for lost time this weekend when I returned - my leader and ender Jewel Box Stars quilt is now a front burner project and is coming along nicely.

| Two more rows to go! |
Today, I hopped back on the computer to catch up on all the work that piled up in my absence, and then I spent some time culling more yardage from my stash for
my ETSY shop. As I'm sure you can tell from my quilts, I rarely use yardage (scraps are where it is at for me, baby!), so it is silly of me to have so much. And since my sewing room is also my home office (and who knows when I'll be going back to my real office), it is important for me to make space so that I don't feel claustrophobic or distracted. Some of the fabric is easy for me to give up, but some I really wrestled with myself over. For example, my Ghastlies fabric...

| Truly, it is this image that made me want this fabric - in two colorways! |
It is out of print and hard to come by, but I've just been sitting with it for nearly a decade! Am I ever going to use it? Probably not. So I posted it - at a higher price than my usual destash fabric, but not nearly as high as others have posted it (one person had a yard listed for $75!!). I'd rather someone else put it to use than for it to sit unused in my stash.
I'm linking up with
Oh Scrap and
