Stash-Busting Report Week 21

Twenty-one weeks are gone of 2009?  How did that happen?

I have to hurry and get my stash report done before Betty picks me up in a half hour to go to Mill End Fabrics!  Any purchases later today will go no next week’s report.  What a plan!

Bought this week:  4 yards of a navy blue for my 9-patch garbage buffet quilt.  Used this week:  4 yards of navy blue cut into sashing strips for aforementioned quilt; 5 yards into my Minnesota Quilter’s Challenge for the flying geese and the borders + binding.  YTD totals are:

  • YTD 89.75yards out
  • YTD 107.5 yards in
  • YTD Net:  17.75 yards IN  
  • Which leaves me still in the red, but if you think about it, in the world of fabric, red is as good as black. 

    I’d also like to mention that I started a little photography class last Friday called Photo Fridays.  Each Friday for a while (how is that for specific?), I’m going to go over a couple of features on digital cameras for any of you who threw your manual in the drawer, or if you read the manual but don’t take enough pictures to remember how to use the features.  I’m not an expert, but I do use my camera literally every day, so what I don’t know, I can figure out.  If you’d like to join the fun, click here for last Friday’s lesson.  You can join in any time, or like some others are doing, you can also just work on your own.

    And I don’t feel like a post is really complete without a photo. . .

      Isn’t red a very popular color these days… many of us in stashbusting seem to favor that!

      Your photo tutorial is great… never played with that little macro button, must go out and try..
