Arg....how are ye doin' me maties? You do know it is talk like a pirate day, don't you? But since that is the extent of my pirate vocabulary I shall leave it at that.
This week I finished my DWR. You can read about it here. So I am able to report 14 yards busted. I am in the black again. When I sew up the backing and get it quilted that will be another bunch of yardage. I have used over 100 yards so far but I have almost purchased that much too. I guess the good thing is my stash is not growing. 

I have started cutting out my basket quilt and discovered that I needed three more fat quarters. I purchased those on Saturday. I was looking at my spreadsheet and discovered that it is exactly two months since I last purchased fabric. Pretty darned good.

Not much sewing will be happening this coming week. I am off to hike the red rocks around Moab, UT. We will be in Arches, Canyonlands and Natural Bridges National Parks. Hope to have some pictures next week. 

Have a great week busting that stash......maties.

  5. I like to think of stash reduction is more like "stash rearranging"--using up old to replace it with some new.
