2012 Stash Report

Used this Week:                17.25  yards
Used year to Date:          61.94 yards
Added this Week:               0.00 yards
Added Year to Date:          32.375 yards
Net Used for 2012:             29.565 yards

It is amazing that a person is able to use 15 yards of fabric out of the stash and it makes absolutely no dent!!!! I finished 14 pillowcases for a service project in our guild and used 15 yards of fabric that had originally been planned for a quilt. Since I knew that the quilt was never going to be made (not the style of fabric I normally buy), it was time to make something else and get it out of the stash. Bet no one else ever has that issue. LOL  Do you wonder -- What was I thinking when I bought that fabric??



Also donated 2.25 yards to Goodwill.

How many years before I actually see a reduction in stash??  Course the house is well insulated with all that fabric!! I am doing my part to keep heating/cooling expenses down.  Grin, grin!!

  3. Oh yes! Great way to cut fabrics out of the stash to make room for more that you like better! And I love making pillow cases - they're just plain fun! A quick project with the quick gratification of a finish :*)

  4. Pillowcases are the perfect project for the fabric that no longer inspires you. Great service project. They look great. Thanks for sharing.
