Sunday Stash Report - 7/13

Time to bite the bullet and post my report. Despite my best intentions to work on something quilty today so I could post a "bust", I did not make it into the sewing room. I ended up walking 3 miles, watching the Brewers game, and then going to Elkhart Lake to see Kyle Petty's Victory Junction Gang Charity motorcycle riders come into town. I'm not a real NASCAR fan, but I love what they're doing (and have done) for the children. (NOTE: You can donate quilts or bears for the children. Check it out!!!) Matt Kenseth was also on the ride and we walked past him when we walked through the hotel. He was signing autographs for some kids.

Enough babbling, here are my results. First, I didn't BUY any new fabric this week but some backordered fabric showed up in the mail this week. There is more coming next week (ummm, 2 bolts to be exact...one will be used for backing on the Patchwork Party top and a future QOV top and the other will be great for backgrounds). So with that said, 4-1/2 yards came in for Snow Wonderland and 2 yards for a QOV. (Yikes, the fabric in total is a bit shocking to me. I never would have thought it was that much had I not been keeping track.)
  • Fabric Added This Week - 6-1/2 yards
  • Fabric Added as of Apr. '08 - 122-1/2 yards
  • Fabric Used This Week - 0 yards
  • Fabric Used Year to Date - 34-1/4 yards
Goals for this Coming Week:
  • Finish snowball block for Snow Wonderland and then start star blocks
  • Sew binding on Quilting Gone Wild
  • Start cutting fabric for QOV mystery (w/online group)
  • Choose next top to load on quilt frame

You're doing great! Thanks for the info on the Victory Junction Camp, I had no idea they were looking for quilts, etc.
