Stash Report - November 13th

It's been a quick week with lots going on at work and at home.  Unfortunately, not much sewing going on as a consequence.  Progress was made on the Geisha quilt, so I do have a bit going out this week.

Used this week: 0.92 yards
Added this week: 0 yards

Used year to date: 50.90 yards
Added year to date:  60.25 yards

Net stashed for 2011:  9.35 yards

Nothing in this week helped me gain ground on the stash reduction.  I'm finally less than 10 yards in the red. I should be able to break even if I have the time to sew.  With the holidays coming up, I'm going to have to spend time I'd usually be sewing doing other things like baking and the gift buying/wrapping.  I love the holidays, so I'll take the trade off.  I'm off the whole week after Christmas.  So I'll have a chance to put some effort in the stash reduction front right before we end the year.  It doesn't matter when right, just before midnight December 31st?   

Have a great week.  Check out Patchwork Times for more tales of the stash.

Yay for under ten! That's better than I'll get to.

We have plenty of time and there is always next year...

I'm starting to get in the holiday mood - not sure why since it seems to be too early.

Under ten yards, congrats! You'll be in the black in no time!

Way to go on the under 10 yards! Whether or not you get a chance to use it all, I'm impressed at your perserverance. ☺ Happy Sunday!

Last year you motivated me to put a limit on how much fabric I bought in 2011. It's not your fault I'm hopeless and couldn't stick to it .

Maybe next year I should just go for more out than in?

Good on you for getting to under 10 yards.

You're doing great! I've been making a dent in my stash without intentionally trying! lol But that's okay, I am finding the more streamlined I get, the better I am doing in general.

I wish you lots more time to sew as an early Christmas present!
