Stash Report - Sept 16

I put the binding on 3 quilts this week, which used 1.5 yards of fabric.  And, I cut all the pieces for my next quilt - 4 1/4 yards. Plus the backing for my lone star, which was 3 1/2 yards.  So total used this week is 9 1/4 yards of fabric.  A good week!

Of course, those who read my blog yesterday know that I completely blew my stashbusting efforts, by bringing home a pile of pretties.  About 30 yards worth (but it was all on sale, Mom!). Lots of lovely batiks on the sale shelves yesterday - can you believe it?  I'm in heaven, but I have no firm plans for any of this fabric.  So I guess I'd better get going on the current quilt, so I can plan a batik beauty from all this new stash.


Total out this week: 9 1/4 yards out

Stash usage this year: 143 yards out

Hop over to Patchwork Times to see what everyone else has been up to.

  2. Sure is hard to resist all the great fabrics out there, especially Batiks on sale! 9 yards in one week is a lot of quilting.

  3. That is a great week. My downfall was the 50% and the 6-% weeks at the quilt shop as they were reducing inventory to move.

    But I am in the busting area again! Yeah!

  4. Oooo, such a lovely bunch of batiks. I can see a beautiful quilt in the making. Just curious - do you not keep track of your YTD incoming fabrics? I like your way of thinking!!
