Sunday Stash Report: 1/8/17

January 8, 2017 by Valerie 1 Comment

A brand new year and a freshort start on redusing the stash.

This week I received six yards of new fabric. Has anyone used double gauze for quilting? I’d appreciate any suggestions. I bought it for the cute elephant print, but it’s a little flimsy. Interfacing?

And I used seven yards for two new baby quilts.

This week: + 6 yards, – 7 yards

This year: +6 yards, -7 yards

Net destashed this year: 1 yard
And forty-nine yards to go! And knowing what’s coming in the mail, it will be a bumpy ride.

I’m linuking up to Judy’s report at Patchwork Times.

Not bumpy just off to a slow start. I didn’t make net 50 yards last year, but perhaps I will join you in that goal.

What about just hemming the double gauze for receiving blankets? I have to admit that I have had double gauze explained to me a few times and still don’t understand it. I haven’t actually tried it. Let me know what comes out of it.
