I keep thinking I am going to make a significant dent in my stash one of these weeks, but the numbers never seem to go down by much. In fact this week, they have gone up again.
In the used column--1-1/2 yards to make 9 scrappy Trip Around the World blocks. These are for a QOV block drive sponsored by Alycia.
Also used--1/4 yard to make blocks #9 - 11 for the Grandmother's Choice block of the week. So far, I have been able to keep up with these.
On the other side of the numbers, the scrap bin at Intown Quilters had just been replenished, and there were nice big chunks of lots of beautiful batiks. These are all about 12 - 13" across and 12 - 18" long, some even more than that. I managed to get all that plus several pieces of cotton prints stuffed into 2 ziploc bags. I figured it to be about 4-1/2 yards total for $10.
Used this week: 1.75
Used year to date: 55.25 yards
Added this week: 4.5 yards
Added year to date: 89 yards
Net year to date: 33.75 yards added

I would not have been able to resist those batiks in the scrap bin either!! Good job. VBG
ReplyDeleteBeautiful batiks. It would have been really hard to resist those. However, since I don't seem to be able to resist any type of sale these days, not sure I'm one to comment!
