Stash Report - Week 5

Well, I had some purchases this week.

First of all, I needed backing for the Wonky Town quilt.  I didn't have that much turquoise in my stash and I used it finishing up Wonky Town.  So, I bought this...


I have started several quilts and I realized that I was going to need some fabric to finish them.

So, I got this beautiful Shangri-La fabric.


So, here are my numbers.

Fabric in: 9 yards
Fabric out: 7.99 yards
Total fabric in: 9 yards
Total fabric out: 26.59 yards
Net: 17.59
Goal: 150 net yards out

How did you do this week? Make sure you check out Judy's blog to see how everyone else did.

ooooh! pretty fabrics and a great stash report. available backings are my downfall too, so i've started digging and re-purposing some stash this week, to come up with more yardage.

I like ALL those fabrics! You are doing great on stashbusting. I have problems with yardage also....but it will work out. Some backs I don't care if they are pieced from a bunch of different fabrics, some I will have to go buy fabric for.

Good work!

Beautiful fabrics!

I just found out that a LQS actually has one day a month where, if you bring in a finishe top, they give you a 20% discount for the backing fabric. The only problem is stopping with just that one piece of fabric!

Very nice fabrics, they were worth coming in, and soon will be going back out too.

Great backing fabrics! It's great that you've done so much fabric busting that adding 9 yards didn't cause you a major set back! Seems you'll have no trouble reaching your goal this year!
