Stash Report - 12/14

Yikes, next Sunday is the first of several family Christmas gatherings. Less than a week to finish shopping and wrapping presents! I see my Christmas countdown ticker isn't working anymore. I think Lori did something to it because she says it keeps freaking her out. LOL For whatever reason the website is down that I got it from. Weird.

Speaking of weird. I think Judy is onto something about Vicky causing her to poke buttons this week. I also ended up poking some buttons and ordering fabric that I really didn't need, but how could I pass up $4/yd?!?!?! I think Vicky must have put a spell or subliminal message on her blog so anyone who read it would poke buttons.

Without further ado, here is the damage this week. I ordered fabric from Craft Town Fabrics and Sunshine Sewing (all fabric is 50% off...sale ends today!!) this week. The Craft Town Fabrics package arrived yesterday and unfortunately (or probably fortunately?) some of the fabrics I ordered were already sold out. I still received 8 yards though.

I finished the Moroccan Spice blocks today. Although I haven't finished the top I'm going to record 5-1/2 yards for the blocks this week. I haven't decided what I'm going to do about the borders yet. I also used 2 yards for the Santa's Got the Goods backing. I need to use up one more yard this year to reach 100 yards used. Maybe I'll whip up some pillowcases!

My numbers to date:
  • Fabric Added This Week: 8 yards
  • Fabric Added as of Apr. '08: 296.5 yards
  • Fabric Used This Week: 7-1/2 yards
  • Fabric Used Year to Date: 99 yards

I fell off the stashbusting thing too... found some great batiks on eBay for $3.33 per yard ... my present to me, I guess. :)
