The Traveling Stash box is a couple days on its way to Rachel over at Suz Made Me Do It! I went back and forth quite a few times on what to take and add to the box. My daughter is in love with the two pink prints so I decided to go that direction instead (wouldn't they be cute sun dresses?) of all the FQ's I was originally eyeing. In the end it doesn't matter because I will be out of comission on sewing for the rest of the month as I have hurt my fingers/hand/wrist on my right hand and it needs a rest. Thankfully I was born left-handed--although the school districts I grew up in made everyone be right-handed! I am going to pull out my cross-stitch I started last year about this time while I was on bedrest. I think I just might get this project finished by the end of the year.

*This is a rough estimate in the foggy haze of birth and all that. I do remember getting a stash of fabric from some people moving out of my building in late April & my mother gave me fabric as well (some got passed on to others) but I had to guess at amounts. I will be better about exact amounts from July onward.
