Week 6

Nothing!

I have been working away at quilting my President's Challenge project. So that has left no time for sewing other stuff. I didn't even cut the strips for my Calendar Quilt. But I didn't buy anything either!

So my totals stay the same.

Fabric in this year: 8.083 yards

Fabric Busted this year: 29.030 yards

Total Busted: 20.947 yards

This next week maybe a yard or two.

Week 5 Stash Buster Report

Fabric in this week: 1 yards
Fabric in this year: 8.083 yards

Fabric Busted this week: 11.541 yards
Fabric Busted this year: 29.030 yards

Total Busted: 20.947 yards

First YEAH ME!!! I made the 10 yards busted goal for the week! I am way excited about that. I made a quilt back for my President's Challenge Quilt. ALL 6 yards was from my stash, and I had enough to make the sleeve to match the back of the quilt! I also used 1 1/3 yards that I purchased last week for the back of my and Liz's Primitive Hearts quilt. I am working on the binding now.

As for my 1 yard purchase, it has a use already. I purchased 1 yard of Peace On Earth for the border on my Christmas Wish BOM. I will finish my last block next September and I know I wont be able to get any more Peace On Earth fabric for the borders.

I feel like I am doing good on my Stash Busting progress. I am hoping to be able to still bust my original goal of 2 yards a week since Scott leaves today. I know my machine sewing time will be greatly reduced.
