September 30th, 2012 - The Stash

I bought some fabric again. Oh well, at least it’s for a quilt in the making, not for the stash. I will pull some fabric out of the stash to co-ordinate with it. I went to the Novi Sewing Expo yesterday and there really wasn’t all that much to buy for quilters. Just as well, like I need more fabric. Here are my numbers.

Fabric used this week: .44 yds

Fabric used YTD: 119.86 yds

Fabric added thsi week: 2 yds

Fabric added YTD: 190.93 yds

Net fabric busted: -71.07 yds

I’m still quilting those 9 quilts I put together in late August. There are 2 more left to quilt and then I can start on something new. I have a lot of projects to choose from and a lot of fabric too. You’d think with all this fabric, I’d never have to go to the quilt store again. Seventy one yards of fabric added but not used this year alone. What’s a girl to do? I say retire and spend the rest of her life quilting. That’s my goal! Thirty-five years of service at the post office and 65 weeks to go. I can’t wait!

    65 weeks doesn’t sound too very long at all before you can start using your retirement stash of fabric.
