Well — I really haven’t dropped off the face of the earth. How many times have I said that this year? I don’t think I worked on anything since I finished the Double Wedding Ring quilt until this past week. In the quilting slump I’m in, I might not have done anything, except I promised a quilt with a hard deadline. That quilt top was finished and quilted yesterday morning, but it still needs binding.
Since I last reported on my stash, I purchased no fabric until Friday afternoon — when I purchased two different backings for the latest quilt. One which was OK, the 2nd which was spot on. Then I found out that a red paisley print I’ve been eying for what seems like forever had been marked down to $2.40 a yard. Believe it or not I only bought 2 yards.
So, here are the numbers for the last stash report of 2014.
Fabric Added Since Last Report 15.625 yards
Fabric Added to Date: 120.999 yards (92.45 is recycled)
Fabric Used Since Last Report: 10.181 yards
Fabric Used to Date: 109.456 yards
Net Increase in Stash to Date: -103.993 yards
Did I use as much fabric as I’d like over the year? Not necessarily — but given that most of what I finished to the flimsy stage or completed were UFOs it’s not surprising.
See how others did this year with their stashed by following the links over at Patchwork Times.
Using over 100 yards in one year is stellar in my book. Also I’m impressed with all you used as recycled fabric. That is awesome.
So very hard to resist some fabrics. Glad you found a special fabric on sale.
Have a very Happy new year.
