My fabric counting is mixed. I’m not even sure I can explain it. But, I’ve got my trusty spreadsheet with multiple tabs which keeps me on track. Apparently when I started Orca Bay I counted the fabric as I stitched it into units. I show 20 purple string geese last December. This week I made 18, so I’ll use last year’s number, minus two for this week’s count.
Surprisingly, not fabric came into the house – and I wandered through both Hobby Lobby and Jo-Ann’s a couple of times this past week. I even fondled a roll of 2 1/2″ strips at Big Lots!
Fabric Added Since Last Report: 0 yards
Fabric Added to Date: 165.192 yards
Fabric Used Since Last Report: 0.344 yards
Fabric Used to Date: 90.65 yards
Net Used for the year -74.542 yards
I best get to sewing if I’m going to use 100 yards by the end of the year.
To see if anyone else fabric #s moved follow the links over at Patchwork Times.
Thanks for the tip that Big Lots now carries fabric – who knew. I did the same thing last week, both Joann’s and HL had not one thing I had to bring home, must be a “do not buy fabric” bug going around.
