WONDERFUL LIFE
Completely done and going on my bed next month!
Used this week: 01.50 yards
Used year to date: 287.50 yards
Added this week: 00.00 yards
Added year to date: 110.00 yards
NET USED 2017: 177.50 yards
A decent final number for fabric usage, but the stash is still enormous! The 177 yards consumed were the equivalent of approximately 2 tote tubs that are now empty. I have about 30 more tubs, and two 5-drawer dressers still full of fabric. Do the math: I won't be using up all my fabric in this lifetime, seriously. Sigh. I'm toying with the notion of a "no-buy" year next year -- even just a "no-buy" quarter once in a while would help.

I had a good showing this year in the Completions category also. These are my own shorthand notes, but this is 31 completed quilts! I currently have 9 tops that need to be quilted ... but I've progressed to not-more-than-two-years-old for that list!
