Stash Busting Report Week #46

A strong Saturday sewing day helped a great deal in using some stash. My report follows:
  • fabric received in: 4 yards
  • fabric used: 10.5 yards
  • net fabric for the week: -6.5 yards (used)

Net fabric for the year: + 7 yards (added)

What I accomplished this week:

  • made 4 QOV pillowcases
  • made 3 floral pillowcases

Goals for next week:

  • load and quilt Floral Bullseye (a UFO for almost 18 months!)
  • start on Holiday gifties

I had a good week as Bonnie Hunter arrived in town. I participated in 2 workshops and attended 2 lectures...a mini retreat yet home each night to my family. In the coming weeks, I will focus on the various Holiday gifties I enjoy making and giving. I also am invited to my nephew and his fiancee's bridal shower the Sunday after Christmas. Last Spring I made the Putzy Quilt for his college graduation gift so I'm thinking a different type of gift (not a quilt!) should be made. Now to brainstorm an idea or two...
