Stash Report Week 22

Yesterday was a gorgeous day, sunny with big fluffy clouds that looked just like a kids drawing.  I had intended to get a picture, but I wasn't feeling like doing too much of anything.  Friday evening my head ached pretty badly, by Saturday morning it had not abated much.  Most of yesterday morning was spent either in bed or in the recliner with my eyes closed and a cold pack on my forehead.  By afternoon I was at least functional.  It's still aching, but not so badly as it did yesterday morning.  Hopefully I can get a few chores done this morning and enjoy some stitching this afternoon.

I managed a week with no button pushing and a bit of stitching, so this week's report looks a lot better than last week's.

Used last week:  0.74 yards
Added last week:  0 yards

Used for 2013:  45.28 yards
Added for 2013:  97.25 yards

Net stashed for 2013:  51.97 yards

Not a stellar week, but definitely not a bad week.  I've been keeping track of my stash since 2010.  I've used more fabric to date this year than I did in the previous 3 years and there is only one year where I bought less fabric by this point.  So though I'm not meeting my goals, it's turning out to be an OK year for stash busting.  How's your stash busting going?   

I'm linking up with Judy over at Patchwork Times, along with all the other stash reporters.

So sorry you're not feeling well, Kate! I hope that darn headache goes away soon so you can get back to stash busting!

I hope you are feeling better. I hate it when a headache steals my day! Every time I come to your blog I think "what a lovely header photo". This time, I thought I'd let you know.

Praying those headaches go away. Doesn't it make you feel great to know that stash is going down?!

No one can sew with a headache. Hope you are better soon. Stash busting: we each have our own goals. Glad you can see some progress!

This is one of those areas where numbers can be deceiving. You're doing great !

Hope that headache has gone by now and that your week is wonderful (its Monday here already - how did that happen?)

So sorry about the headache. I amazed you can do anything other than stay in bed until it goes away. My stash just doubled -- a friend gifted me some Christmas fabrics.
