Oh my, stash report

I was doing so good until this week. 
I couldn't help it, I was at a shop that had Blueberry Crumb Cake by Moda

 and I have this thing for blue so I just could resist. Have no quilt planned, just goes in the stash for when I do find that right project.
I had not bought any fabric in a couple of months and then it's like I went off to the deep end. I have bought 35.5 yards.    Woo - wee
I now have a minus usage.


Used this Week: .5 yards
Used year to Date: 4.5 yards

Added this Week: 35.5 yards
Added Year to Date: 36 yards
Net Used for 2012: -31.5 yards


Not good, I need to get really busy and start using it up. 

Check out Patchwork Times to see how others are doing.

Till next time

    Beautiful fabric!! I haven't bought any quilt fabric since September. I am afraid when I do, it will be like you...a WHOLE bunch at one time. Like the flood gates opened!! Fortunately, no funds for such fun right now...so I will keep trying to use the millions of yards I already have!

    I need to start watching my fabric in/fabric out count myself. As long as I don't have to know how much a start with, I should be okay. If I ever have to count what I have now, I would probably go into heart failure!

      I didn't start with what I already had counted either. I know I would have some sort heart failure if I did. My goal is to see by the end of the year a good dent made.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

I have a lot of bird related patterns, especially ones that are chickens This quilt I made last year from a pattern in Quiltmania. Then here are a few more patterns I had and thought about doing. But time wasn't on my side for a big project.  You see I'm going to see "the little dudes" next week, it's their first birthday. Blake and Ben, my "little dudes" Can't believe it's been a year already. OK back to topic here.  A couple of years ago while at the Dallas Quilt show I purchased this pincushion.   I thought it was interesting but what I really wanted was the pattern. It came from a shop in Texas,...
