Stash report - week 43, 16 October 2011

Wow - week 43. This year is certainly going by.  No sewing for me this week.  I had thoughts of getting into the sewing room yesterday, but they didn't pan out. 

This week, the pantograph I ordered for quilting my mittens UFO arrived.  It's snowflakes, and a more open design than some others I saw.  I want this quilt to stay softer, rather than having a lot of thread on it.  I don't know if I'll have a chance to get it loaded today or not.  We've got a trip to the pumpkin patch with the grandchildren planned for today.

My stash numbers for the year stay the same this week:

In this week:              0      yds
Out this week:           0      yds

In YTD                    89.42 yds
Out YTD                 53.74 yds

Net for 2011:           35.68 yds Added to stash

Stash report - week 42, 9 October 2011

I haven't done any stash reports for a  while, so this is a catch-up report.  I ordered Halloween and Christmas fabrics from Z&S when they had their sale in September.  It took a while for them to come in - I think they were overwhelmed with the number of orders they got :>

So last weekend I made 4 Halloween pillowcases - and, of course, two of the grandchildren wanted the same one, so yesterday I made another bat fabric pillowcase.  That's the sum total of my fabric in and out for the last month.

In this report:           16.25 yds
Out this report:         5       yds

In YTD                    89.42 yds
Out YTD                 53.74 yds

Net for 2011:           35.68 yds Added to stash

stash report - week 37, 11 Sept 2011

I used a little bit of fabric from the stash to work on yesterday's Planet Patchwork Wonderful One-Day Mystery tablerunner.  I did not do all the cutting at once, so I still have some to count for next time I work on this.  Checking my stash report, this is the first entry into my spreadsheet since the end of July!  The only sewing I've done for a month has been things that were already cut out and counted - cupcake swap blocks, putting scrap binding on a quilted block, and the honey bun I counted earlier.

Next week's numbers will show some adds - I poked buttons at Z & S fabrics, who were having a wonderful one-day sale - Halloween and Christmas fabrics for pillowcases for the grandchildren.  I'll count those when they arrive in the mail.

Check out Judy's Patchwork Times to see how everyone else is doing this week.

So for this week's numbers:
In this week:                     0 yds
Used this week                 0.65 yds

In YTD:                          73.17 yds
Out YTD:                       48.74 yds

Net for 2011:                  24.43 yds Added
