Sunday’s Stash-Busting Report

Today’s stash report covers the past two Sundays as well (vacation).  I was quite restrained in my shopping while on vacation, considering I visited five quilt shops in Alaska.  I purchased a small panel and a little yardage that had an Alaska theme totaling 3.5 yards.  I did see some black and red fabrics that were so beautiful, I nearly caved.  I only have a little bit of non-buyer’s regret, but I’ll get over it.  (As Pam B says, “They will still be making fabric tomorrow.)  Ooooh, and I did place a teensy, weensy, small, itty-bitty smidgen of an order at Vicki Welsh’s Etsy shop, but I will count that when it comes in (her work is so pretty).

On the usage end of the fabric bolt — nada.  I did some sewing this week, but mostly on an existing project.  I did make a small Santa ornament at Featherweight Club this week, but that took so little fabric — I have more threads clinging to my black pants than were in the fabric used…so…

    (and a little ps:  my late night/early morning surprise give-away winners are Floribunda, Karen J, Lynda G & Robin. 

    and a pps:  This past week I did a 7-day travelogue on this blog of our Alaskan cruise, so if you’d like to check out the sights in Alaska, it’s in my posts starting on July 27th and continuing through August 1st.)
