The weekly stash report is showing some movement on the fabric used side, even though quilting time was in short supply last week. The majority of my sewing time was spent on some simple tote bags that our quilt guild gives to the church where the guild meets to be included in the shoebox gifts they put together for children over the holidays.
I made 10 bags using fabrics from my stash, 5 yards total. The adorable whale prints were a prize in a long-ago giveaway.
Unfortunately, I didn't have enough webbing to add the handles to several of the bags. I hope to get more from our community service chair next week.
I also made 11 bags from home decor fabrics that had been given to me (not counted as part of my stash.) Again, several of them still need handles.
My other sewing project for the week was to make myself a new apron. I got used to wearing an apron at work, and I still find it useful while sewing at home. It has plenty of pockets, including a good spot to hold my phone while I listen to audiobooks, plus a leather sheath to keep a small scissors handy for clipping threads. 3/4 yard of fabric used.
