I started to put together my stash report post a week ago, but an early morning appointment to donate blood at the Red Cross kept me from finishing it, and I just never got back to it that day. Because of that, today's report covers the last two weeks.
I've been working on several different projects during that time, but I haven't done so well at taking photos and writing blog posts for some of them. The usage I can report is 3.25 yards for a set of 12 placemats that used blocks made as part of a Super Bowl Mystery in 2021.
The placemats were backed with this cute print from Piece O' Cake, with a date of 2001 on the selvage. Time to use that up!
I've been making some progress on my 2026 Temperature Quilt, and I was starting to worry about running out of some colors. That meant another fabric order, with 6 yards total added to the stash. These fabrics are all from the Glaze and Glaze 2 lines by Libs Elliott for Andover.
2026 STASH TOTALS
Used last two weeks: 3.25 yards
Used year to date: 109.0 yards
Added last two weeks: 6.0 yards
Added year to date: 119.25 yards
Net added in 2026: 10.25 yards

I've had a hard time staying focused on any of my quilting projects lately, but I did finish one small quilt (photos/blog post coming soon,) plus I've been working on all of those placemats.
