YOU HAVE ENOUGH QUILTS WHEN YOUR SOUL IS FILLED,
YOUR CREATIVITY SATISFIED
AND YOUR FINGERS JUST WON'T WORK ANYMORE

Stashbusting Week 16


Well, once again I fell off the wagon. And it wasn't even my fault. Got an email from a "Friend" (I'm using this term very loosely here after my blowout) telling me of a great sale on of Civil War fabrics. So I thought I would have a quick look as I did need some backing for my current quilt. Well (gulp) I just couldn't leave it there. Such a bargain at $5.00 a metre!

So now my ins have exceeded my outs. I REALLY will have to do some serious quilting in the next few weeks to amend that. Oh, but it's such nice fabric............and who can resist a bargain.

Fabric added this week: 48 mt/yds
Fabric added this year: 146.3 mt/yd

Fabric used this week: Nil
Fabric used this year: 120.4 mt/yd

I love your fabrics and the price is great!! In response to your comment on my blog, yes Victory Quilts is a newer book by Eleanor Burns at Quilt in a day based on 1940's patterns. I like her fabrics too but I am using my scraps.

sometimes we just need to add when we 'find a bargain' or to 'freshen the stash'! Don't worry~you'll use it soon enough :)

Keep on quilting!

Aw, she's still your friend! Great purchases, and I really like the new quilt you started!

That fabric had to go home with someone, so it might as well be you. Welcome to the negative side.
