Over the past several months, I have said several times that I have backs to make to improve my stash usage, and this week was finally the time! I took tops and backing fabric to my bee work day on Monday and I got two backs done, and then had some time to start cutting out a new quilt. I am not going to count that fabric as used until I finish cutting the quilt - it is from a jelly roll, so is easier just to count when done. I am hoping to get back to that this week.
Here are the backs:
And here's the stash report
Fabric added this week: 0 yards
Fabric used this week: 7 5/8 yards
Fabric added year to date: 18 7/8 yards
Fabric used year to date: 61 1/8 yards
Net fabric used: 41 1/2 yards
This week my focus is on a couple finishes. I will move my sewing station back down to the basement as the Olympics ends and hope to make some progress on things that are waiting for me down there.
Here are the backs:

| Back for a Service quilt for a friend who served in Afghanistan |
