FNWF and A new beginning

I'm still working on my Floral Beauty, but today I finally made a small start on Irish Circles.

Hmmm.....different pattern but similar fabrics to Floral Beauty. Maybe that's because I'm making it largely from my stash. Does this happen to you when making scrap quilts or projects which need lots of small pieces of different fabrics? I'm not sure how to avoid it without buying lots of new fabric. I like most of the fabric in my stash so I guess it's not a problem.

I've already been sewing today so I hope it continues tonight for FNWF. Pop over to Cheryll's blog to sign up.

Hope you find some stitching time tonight and over the weekend.

    Yes! It does happen to me my Auntie Green is looking like three other quilts of mine because of the colours and fabrics :)

    You've got plenty of variety in there and it is really satisfying to use up the stash (if that is ever possible in one lifetime!) This is going to be lovely.

      Well it may have similar colours to floral beauty, but that's ok because it is looking gorgeous at the moment

    Oh yes, It often feels like I have a series going with the same fabrics showing up again and again just in differnt combinations! Fun to see, but sometimes I worry that they all start to look too much alike. Oh well. I'm like you. Always wanting to use from the stash. Love your project!

    Definitely happens to me. I often get told to step out of my square. But I like it here! I always enjoy seeing your fabric combinations.
