I haven't posted a stash report for the last few weeks because I haven't been adding or cutting into any fabric. This week, I did a little of both :)
I used a few small pieces for small projects. First up is a tree block for my bee mate Caryl. This will be my last bee block for a while as I am returning to work full time this week (I have been working 4 days/week). It is a paper pieced block and it was fun to make.
The second project was an angel gown. I have a colleague at work whose wife lost a baby midway through her pregnancy, so I sent the gown off to them this week. I have had several friends who have had late pregnancy losses, so was glad to be able to contribute something that could provide a little comfort. I think I can get 2 angel gowns from each fat quarter so plan to make a few more to donate to the program through our guild for local hospitals.
I also did a little shopping yesterday to take advantage of the super bolt/football widow sales. I got to Quilts Plus mid-afternoon and found that they were out of almost all of their precuts, but luckily they had one jelly roll remaining of the new Noteworthy fabric from Sweetwater. I picked that up and a yard of coordinating fabric, plus a This and That pattern for a bag, because I can't seem to pass up bag patterns and I haven't bought one for a while!
The end result for the week is:
Fabric added this week: 3 1/2 yards
Fabric used this week: 1/4 yard
Fabric added year to date: 3 1/2 yards
Fabric used year to date: 3 yards
Net fabric added: 1/2 yard
I hope to get to some cutting this week so I can be back in the black by next week's stash report!
