January 19th, 2014 - The Stash Week #3
It’s Week #3 and I finally have something to report. Not much, but something. I finished a scrappy quilt that I posted about the other day and all I used from my stash was 2 strips for the binding. The only other fabric from my stash was some of the sashing and that was counted last year. Everything else was scraps.
I’ve also started cutting out a couple of quilt tops that I want to take with me when I go on a retreat at the end of Feb. Nothing too intricate because it’s hard to socialize and sew without trying to follow a pattern. I usually bring mindless sewing and with all the company it goes so much faster and it’s a lot of fun.
Fabric used this week: 6.24 yds
Fabric used YTD: 6.24 yds
Fabric added this week and YTD: 0 yds
Net fabric busted: 6.24 yds
Maybe next week, I’ll have busted a lot more of this stash. I have way too much fabric and I’m running out of room.

A retreat sounds like so much fun! I know by the end of February, it would certainly break up the winter blahs. Great way to burn stash!

That’s not a bad start for 2014. Good luck with this week’s stash busting plans.
