I was out at a local quilt shop retrieving a quilt today, and I found this flannel fabric.
Isn't it just PERFECT for this pattern?
Look at these owls. So adorable. Now I just need to pick my fabric
for the front, to coordinate with this backing fabric. And hope I
bought enough of it, too.
That was not good for my stash report however. Especially when I fess up to the 3 yards of background I picked up for another project. I probably only need 1/2 of it, but I didn't know and I don't want to run out partway through that quilt.
So, my stash report for this week.
Out:
5 yards - backing for toes in the sand
4 yards - dark neutral quilt
1 yard - binding for baby quilts & placemats
In:
5 yards - owl backing
3 yards - neutral background for modern quilt
10 yards out, 8 yards in. Still headed in the right direction!
Stash totals for the year:
80.5 yards in
68.25 yards out
Total: 12 1/4 yards in

Those owls really are adorable. I'm looking forward to seeing your owl quilt.
