Stash Report March 12

Here is my latest stash report. 

I'm linking with Judy Laquidara's blog 


Since my last report  on 2/26: 
  • Completed "Flurry"...  quilted, bound,  and ready to bring on the Christmas Spirit next year. Total amount of fabric used...  3 yards of  solid white background === Backing 4  1/2 yards  === binding 5/8 yard  The gift package blocks were from an exchange, so most of them did not come from my stash.  I made 6 of the 20 package blocks...  so I used approx 1/2 yard total for those.      Total fabric used, 8  5/8 yards       Batting used   1 5/8 soft and bright                   
  • I got lots done at retreat last weekend,  but since I'm not finished with any of the projects I worked on, I'll have to wait to count,  but I do have a top 1/2 quilted on the machine right now, so progress is being made!

  1. Sounds like you are taming that fabric stash. Good numbers for the year. I've never seen anyone keep track of batting. How many yards/year do you usually use? Just curious.

    1. Don't really know just how much batting I use, but... I thought it would be interesting to find out..... Trying very hard to use up all the smaller bits as I can. Started out with three tubs in January... down to one, and a small grocery bag now.

  2. You're making progress, 1/2 a quilt means you only have 1/2 left to do!!!
