The stash got the upper hand this week, as my fabric arrived from eQuilter, and my work on the Brights quilt dragged on progressed slowly. The fabric is wonderful, from their big clearance sale between Christmas and New Years. I know they have another of these big sales around Memorial Day or Labor Day (both?), but there’s always good stuff in their clearance section. Some of this is already designated for projects, so it will go fast.
This week: +15.5 yards, -0 yards
This year: +15.5 yards, -10 yards
Net stash used this years: +5.5 yards
The Brights quilt will probably be finished later today, so it will definitely be a lot of yards counted out next week. My back is better but still sore, so I am trying not to sew for too long at a time. Also, I vastly increased the amount of quilting I planned to do on this project, but it is advancing my goal of learning new quilting motifs, so it’s been a good snowbound project.
Hope you’re enjoying this long weekend, and getting to spend some time at the machine. Find us on Twitter this weekend at #MLKSI

You have a nice looking kitty!
I have a scarf that looks like that black and white print. A few new yards is good for the stash. Brings out the good qualities of things you already have and spurs your creativity.
