I bound two charity quilts, so there is 1/2 yard. I then pulled from the stash to make a "We got you Covered" quilt - a new community service project our guild is taking on - lap quilts (36 by 42-44) for patients at our local Veteran's Hospital. I used four 1/4 yd cut WOF, a 1/2 yard for border, less than an hour of putting it together and got the top shown.
I used Bonnie Hunter's Streak of Sunshine method, but I used 8 1/2" squares and only the fabrics I mentioned above. That used up another 1 1/2 yards.
Then I pulled 4 yards for donations - mostly blues for 34-36" quilts for St. Anne's. And here are my numbers:
Used/Donated this week: 6.0 yards
Used/Donated Yr to date: 101.12yards
Added this wk: 0.0 yards
Total Yr to date Added: - 12 yards
-----------------------------------------
Total Yr to date Used: 89.12 yards

ReplyDeleteGood for you! With the holidays coming on, I don't anticipate any more finishes. However, I don't intend to buy any more fabric, either.
