March 22nd, 2009 - Stashbusting Week #12

Once again I have added more fabric than I have used. But, it’s for a specific purpose like backing and binding, not for the stash. I even visited a quilt shop with a pocket full of cash and the intention of buying and came away with 2 patterns and a datebook. The fabric added was purchased for me by my sister.  So here’s my report.

Fabric Added This Week: 5 yds

Fabric Added Year-to-date: 35.67 yds

Fabric Used This Week: .8 yds

Fabric Used Year-to-date: 46.03 yds

Net Fabric Busted: 10.36 yds

 My fabric busted keeps getting smaller. I wonder what seems to be the problem. Oh it could be that I keep on buying more fabric. Shame on me!!!!!! Oh well, maybe I’ll have better luck next week. I hardly sewed this week and my free-motion foot broke so that set me back a few days. Right in the middle of quilting a project. I had to wait and go over to Detroit to get a foot because there isn’t a Husqvarna/Viking dealer in town.  I could have ordered one from London but then I’d have to wait to have it shipped and I’m a rather impatient sort. Oh well, I needed gas also so it was a good trip.

That’s all for today.

    Finishes are on the way!! And I NEVER count gifted fabric (well, except Pat’s novelty squares!)as part of my stash. But then I remember to not count it on the way out. Bummer!
