Stash Busting Report – February 21, 2025

I’m a day late with my Stash Report. Oh well, at least I remembered it.

Last Saturday I purchased 9 yards of this gorgeous wide backing.  I wanted it for some future project for myself, my SIL Ruby couldn’t decide (see my post Lighting Matters), and my SIL Penny said it would be great for a quilt I’m making for her sister.  Monday I remembered this kit that I bought from another quilter when I went to a retreat in Shipshewana in November 2019.  The colors are great for the commissioned quilt, but I’ll need to get more fabric and possibly change the pattern. Penny and I are still in discussion.

I was also given a bag of “scraps” which had enough fabric to make a dozen more Little Laura Notebooks.  I did a Google search to find out how much a yard of quilting cotton fabric weighs and it came in between 3.5 – 5.5 ounces a yard.  So, I’m using the 4.5 ounces = 1 yard when I figure my calculations.

Fabric Added Since Last Report: 28 yards (I converted my wide back to 45″)
Fabric Added to Date:  32 yards

Fabric Used Since Last Report: 1.2 yards
Fabric Used to Date: 10.825 yards

Net Fabric Stash: 21.175 yards
