Stash Report 10.17.10

Here she is in all her glory, my BOM from BOM-Quilt Addicts Yahoo group. I have named her "Oh My Stars" and I am in love with this quilt. I wanted to have her all finished before the retreat that is coming up but it didn't work out that way so I will show her off as a top. I need to order black batting and some backing. I'm also hoping to get a good photo this weekend.

I was quite amazed at the numbers when I finally added them up. I designed a similar quilt in EQ7 and used the same number of fabrics that are in the quilt. 1/8th yard pieces add up to a lot of fabric.

This week's report:
Used this Week: 13.5 yards
Used Year to Date: 218 yards
Added this Week: 0 yards
Added Year to Date: 145.75 yards
Net Used for 2010: 73.25

Go to Judy L's and see her amazing numbers and how others are doing to their stash.


**Happy Birthday today to my Dear Husband. He is getting a new knee next week-he thinks that's a darn good birthday present. Today he will get cake.

Definitely get black batting. I didn't and the white is shedding all over my quilt. I hope your DH's surgery goes well and that his knee replacement goes well.
