I ended up buying 2 half yard pieces of fabric this past week because I guessed at the color — it was on sale for $5 and I didn’t know if I was going to be able to get out since I was working Saturday. The color was way off and I finished up around Noon. After a stop at the box store for thread, I grabbed scraps from the quilt and headed across town.
No peg board fabric – didn’t surprise me, the fabric is at least 3 and possibly 5 years old. No green – that fabric is at least as old if not older, but found one the same color, but it wasn’t right. Ended up with an red-orange that is perfect.
On the usage side of things, binding for 3 quilts – the Red Disappearing 9-Patch, the Hardware quilt and the Black & Pink 4-Patch Stacked Posies. I also pulled a backing from stash for the Black & Pink quilt.
So, here’s the yardage tally.

You used a lot of fabric this year, even if you don’t have positive numbers. You’ll be there next year.
