Stash Report - 8/17

Nothing has changed on my stash report from last week, but I've made some progress on Tilt-A-Whirl (previously known as Garden Inspirations). I have 1/3 of the blocks done.

My numbers this week:
  • Fabric Added This Week - 0 yards
  • Fabric Added as of Apr. '08 - 165.75 yards
  • Fabric Used This Week - 0 yards
  • Fabric Used Year to Date - 45-3/4 yards
Goals for this Coming Week:
  • Continue piecing Tilt-A-Whirl
  • Order panto for Snow Wonderland
As for the car shopping, after reading the Consumer Reports and talking to people about their cars, we have decided on the Mazda3. We'll get more bang for our buck. Now we just need to find the best price and dealer. So, yesterday we squeezed in a trip to Fond du Lac and test drove one with all the options we want. The salesman was very nice and didn't pressure us. They have silver, grey and copper red version, all with black interior. Blue still would be my first choice, but the grey is nice too. We found out the blue version only comes with the beige interior, which I thought I wanted since we DO have white dogs (even though they won't be allowed in this car), there are always stray hairs, just like threads. But the beige will also show stains better. Thursday I'm taking vacation (since it's DH's day off) and we're going to Green Bay to check their cars out. They have a blue one. ;0)
