Stash Report

Yes, 9 yards of fabric was received in this past week.  But I got Scrappy Trips quilted and bound, made a pillowcase to go with it and put the borders on my Christmas BOM.  Which is just over 6 yards.  So there’s still more fabric in for the year than used, but  I’ll have another quilt top quilted & bound and a pillowcase by the end of the week  which should put me with more used than brought in – at least until I pick up the background fabric I’ve ordered for a new quilt.

Fabric Added Since Last Report 9.0 yards
Fabric Added to Date: 11.91 yards

Fabric Used Since Last Report: 6.063 yards
Fabric Used to Date: 7.675 yards

Increase in Stash to Date:  4.235 yards

As for the habit of working on my scraps for 30 minutes each week, I only got 15 minutes in this week. I suspect with another 15 minutes I won’t have room to store the shorter pieces in the box and will need to stop and cut them down.

Stash Report

Nothing in this week simply because it hasn’t arrived in the mail. Nothing out this week because I haven’t finished quilting the quilt.  — wait I forgot the pillowcase I made.

As for my new quilting habit I another 1/2 an hour last week working on the scrap bin.

I can actually see where the scraps are going down this week.  The plastic bag holds 2 1/2″ scraps as I’m currently focusing on the 2″ scraps.

The 2″ strip box is beginning to fill up as well.  Those pieces on the right will be sub-cut into bricks and blocks when I get the bottom of this box. I’m only keeping as strips anything longer than 12″.
