I think this is one of the best ideas - stash busting. I'm glad Judy from Patchwork Times started it. I've been busy this week in the sewing room. My numbers for this week:
Fabric added: 0 yards
Fabric used: 20.25
YTD added: 4 yards
YTD used: 132.75
Stash busted: -128.75
I didn't add fabric or thread. I did turn down a chance to go to the LQS, but my resolve held.
This week I completed: 10 bags for the Bags for Kids Project, 2 pairs of boxer shorts to go in my Christmas box, two baby quilts, gifted 5 yards (two friends got fabric - suede cloth and lining for purses, and the other - fabric for a dressy blouse), and eight pencil bags and 4 fabric wallets. My boxes of goodies for the kids is growing - I hope I can continue this pace this year. I have a couple of projects laid out for next week - and am feeling the need to piece a quilt. I need hand quilting for the evenings.
I did add one skein of sock yarn this week, but completed another pair. I may have to do sock yarn busting next year!!
I hope all of you had a good week and had great numbers of stash busted. Check out Judy's Patchwork Times to see what we all do.
Man, you're doing GREAT!
