Adventures in Fabric Art

Sunday Stash Report: 7/6/14

Beware of a Stash Report that opens with a fabric store sign!  Yes, some was added, but it was blacks, whites, and some sale fabrics for a backing.  No apologies.  You don’t expect me to pass Waynesville, Ohio without stopping, do you?

These zippers for future pouches came in the mail yesterday.  Almost as pretty as fabric, but I don’t have to add them in. They came frome Zipperstop.com, a link I believe I got from Jaye.

On the minus side, I put together ten tissue covers last night, using half a yard of scraps.  I never made them before (I think Benta inspired me), but they were simple, quick, and fun.  I used this tutorial.  I feel this may really be the last bit of Mirror Ball Dot, at least in the lime/teal colorway.  I think.

Also, I took a page from Judy’s book, and cut up half a yard of old stuff for plant ties.

This week: +9 yards, -1 yard

YTD: +73.75 yards, -134 yards

Net stash used 2014: –60.25 yards

Good luck with your destashing!

  1. Fabric sales don’t count towards stash. 🙂 Where did you order your zippers? What fun tissue holders.

  2. Such a great idea, Valerie! An easy gift to any friend who appreciates home made things. Thank you for sharing the link to the video, it looks like a super easy and quick project!

  3. I am headed to Ohio on Wednesday, Cleveland area. I have been looking at the map and scoping out some quilt shops. I love the little tissue pouches!

  4. Love the Fabric Shack! Sounds like you had a good time there.

  5. Even with the inflow, you are still doing well with the outflow!
