Stash report week 24 / 2011

Somehow I have been in between projects and felt in limbo this last week - have been going through magazines and books to find my next new project.
And ended up once again with another pattern out of Kim Brackett's book Scrap Basket Sensations, called Town Square. Here is a sneak peak, more will be revealed on Design Wall Monday.

I used red, blue and beige strips and already cut everything and sewed the centers for a total out of 3.3 yards + star charms for Katie. In came my beautiful fat quarter win from Ruby Slipperz.

Week 24 / 2011

Used this Week: 3.5 yards
Used year to Date: 81.6 yards
Added this Week: 2.25 yrds
Added Year to Date: 38.25 yrds
Net Used for 2011: 43.35 yards

Stash busting is slow going here at my house, but every bit counts. Middle of the year with 43 yards means I still can make my 100 yards used goal, but I need to get going on some quilt backings..
I really enjoy making my own jelly roll quilts. Even though they are not made from matchy-matchy fabric collections, they still make nice quilts! Especially with all the great JR patterns!
How is your stash busting going?

Enjoy your Sunday,
