As I said in my last stash report - this will be the year to do some enhancing besides the destashing. So here is my first buy: I need solids and love dots, so I've added 2.5 yards of fabric. I got these from Becky Goldsmith's store. Just love her choices.
I also used .25 yards to work on that ufo I finished and gave mom .3 to make two doll quilts for our granddaughter, Lily. She got two dolls for Christmas - she's only 2 yrs, 7 months, but is quite the little mother already.
Here are my numbers using Valerie's at Evening in the Garden blog's way of listing them plus my donation line:
This week: +2.5 yds., -.55 yds.
Donated: +0 yds; -0 yds
YTD: +2.5 yds., -.55 yds.
Donated: +0 yds; -0 ydsYTD: +2.5 yds., -.55 yds.
Net used in 2013: +1.95 yds. So I'm a little in the red already, but in the long run - I don't think it's too bad.
Linking to Judy's Patchwork Times - see how others are doing.
There is nothing sweeter than seeing a toddler being a momma to her dolls. I am sure the dolls will love being smothered in their new quilts.
ReplyDeleteOooh, you mentioned me! Cool! No, you're fine. I almost bought fabric last night, but didn't pull the trigger, and now the sale is over. Otherwise I would be in the red, too, but we need basics, and I definitely think solids and dots are basics!
ReplyDeleteWonderful additions to your stash! Gotta love dots - always!!!
ReplyDeleteTons of time to get out of the red and your additions are great. Love those polka dots.
