6 yards for the backing on the LSU quilt.

I forgot to say last week that the fabric Vicky donated didn’t get [...]

Time is flying by, don’t you think?  After today’s stash reports, we only have 17 weeks left in 2008.  Can you believe that?  Anyone thinking about what you’re going to do for stashbusting in 2009?  Not sure what I’m going to do but I’ll do something.  It’s been nice being accountable to someone (I’m not [...]

I didn’t add anything but it wasn’t because I didn’t try.  I’ll tell you about that in a separate post though.
Most of what I used this week was making samples for upcoming classes - 3″ here, 5″ there, some borders on some string quilts, some binding for string quilts — nothing to write home about [...]

How’d you do this week?
Are you happy with your efforts so far this year? If not, do you know why? I know I could’ve done better and mostly my downfall has been good, quilt shop quality fabric I found on sale. I just can’t beat myself up over adding name brand, quality [...]

It was a good week for my stashbusting efforts. This is the first report for the second half of 2008. If stashbusting is something you really want to do and you aren’t so happy with your results the first half of the year, just start over. Kinda like pretend 2008 is [...]

Welcome to June! The first five months of 2008 are history. Where do you stand in your stash reduction efforts? We started the year with between 30 and 40 people reporting weekly and we’ve dwindled down to 15 - 20 on most weeks. We still have seven months left in [...]
