I consider my first week Stashbusting a success. I was able to make 15 snowball blocks and 6 Jacob's Ladder blocks. These blocks are for online swaps I am involved in and they will hopefully make it into either quilts and/or wallhangings. The snowballs are made out of flannel. I did have to go purchase some flannel to have a better variety. So here goes my first report for 2009!
Fabric Added this Week 2 1/3 yards
Fabric Added Year to Date: 2 1/3 yards
Fabric Used this Week: 5 yards

Stashbusting in 2009
Awhile back Judy asked in her blog if we were going to participate in stashbusting again this year. I most definately am!! Last year I did pretty good for it being my first year keeping track of what came in and what went out. Was truely an eye opening experiance. So I have downloaded the pledge and am working on that tonight and getting my spreadsheets ready for this year. I have already busted some stash in the past couple days so woohoo I'm off to a good start!

Happy New Year!

Hard to believe that it is the New Year. Seems like we just rang in 2008 and now it is 2009! Remember that what you do on New Years Day you will do the rest of the year...so make sure and either sit at the sewing machine or sit and do some hand appique so that you will continue to sew all year! I plan on making snowball blocks today for an online swap I'm in and have a few Jacob's Ladder blocks to make as well. I wish everyone health and happiness for the new year.

Final Stash Report 2008 Wk 52
This year has gone by so fast and it just doesn't seem like we should be ready for 2009 already. This was my first year participating in Judy's stashbusting and it has been an eye opening experience. I ended up actually busting some stash this year, even with all that I bought in Paducah! So I consider it a good year. Would have liked to have had a higher number busted but I can live with it. So here goes my final report for 2008.

Stash Report #50

Wow it is hard to believe that 2 more reports and we will be starting over....gracious where has this year gone? I finished up the gifts for my MIL and got those shipped off earlier this week. And Sat I finished up a Secret Santa gift to be mailed off tomorrow. I will post the picture of MIL's gift but not he SS gift as she might be inclined to stop in here and have a look at my blog. Why I'm not sure as I've not been good lately about keeping it up. But I will do better!
