Stash report - week 52

Net used for 2012: 104.75  yards

 

Last stash report of the year!  My final numbers are satisfactory.  Fairly similar to last year, although yards purchased and yards used are both somewhat less this year.  I think that's partly due to the fact that I spent so much of my sewing time making comfort quilts in 2012, but used guild fabric to make them so I couldn't count it here.

Having tracked my numbers for two years, I'm comfortable with my fabric habits.  I can adequately store and access my stash.  I don't make random acquisition purchases, but rather buy colors/prints that I want for a particular project.  I'm staying within my fabric allowance budget.  I'm using more than I add.

And of course if I never acquired even another thread of fabric, I'd still have plenty enough here to keep me sewing for the rest of my life.

It's all good :)

Still plugging away at the total -- only two more reports left for this year!  A little bit behind where I stood at this time last year, but I'm still working :)

Hourglass runner ... for January.

I pieced a couple of backs this week. so my numbers got a boost.

Here are my latest "time filler" log cabin blocks -- kind of a Halloween color scheme this time.  Again, no thinking required, just sew up some straight lines whenever I have a few spare minutes, and eventually I have enough blocks for a top.

Very little to report: I spent many hours this week cutting comfort quilt kits, but unfortunately none of it was my own fabric, so it doesn't count here :)

Some decent progress to report this time: I finished the top for my Halloween bow ties project this week, and made a back for it.  While I was rummaging through my backing fabric tub, I weeded out a few yardage pieces and sent them to the guild's comfort quilt stash.

I made three backs and did some layering and pinning this week, so my numbers look pretty good for a change.
