April 4th, 2010 - Stash report Week # 14
I put more binding on this week. I still have 2 quilts that need binding and I really don’t like doing binding. Very boring, mindless and boring. You can really tell how much I like it. But it needs to be done and then it’s the label. Another one of those jobs. What I don’t like is how long it takes and the hand sewing. I don’t like the look of machine finished bindings so I guess I should just shut up about it. Ok!
Fabric added this week: 0 yds
Fabric added YTD: 28.94 yds
Fabric used this week: .42 yds
Fabric used YTD: 87.21 yds
 Net fabric busted: 58.27 yds
 I’ve been itching to start a new quilt but I have a few projects that need to be finished. I’ve been working on the “Too Good To Cut Challenge” and would like to get the top done today before we go for dinner at my in-laws. My sister is supposed to coming for a couple of days this week. My mom has a few appointments for her cancer treatment (good prognosis) and she wanted to be there for them. I have the week off, so maybe we’ll get time to do some sewing in between.
Have a Happy Easter and a great week.

You’re doing great with fabric usage!@ I love handwork and if I were closer, I’d love to do the handwork to bind your quilts! Keep up the great job you are doing.

Yea, binding is kind of boring but a necessary evil. Put on a favorite movie you listen to more than watch or listen to some happy music. The time goes by so much faster. Looking forward to seeing your finished quilts.
