This was a really good week for, in stash usage. It was also a good week for stash enhancement :) I did use every scrap of fabric I bought for baby quilts - so much so, that I had to head back out and buy some additional fabric for bindings. I guess I forgot to calculate that into my plans. I was reasonably well-restrained at my fabric shop yesterday, but I did also pick up some additional fabric for the colour challenge quilt - background and a couple quarters to add a border to the quilt. 5 1/2 yards came home in total.
Stash used this week
4 3/4 yards - backing for baby quilts
4 yards - practice quilts (is this cheating? Four 1 yard strips, put together to make 2 "quilts" for long arm practice.)
4 1/2 - colour challenge star
Total used this week: 13 1/4 yards
Stash usage this year:
102 yards out
Now, back to watching the Olympics and knitting (since I don't have a TV in the sewing room)
Your practice quilts count - used is used, no matter how!
ReplyDeleteI agree - anything used counts! I moved my small machine and set up a sewing station in my living room so that I can watch and sew :)
ReplyDeleteTrue - any fabric used is used.
