Stash Report Week #15

Baby Q was born Tuesday after a long day of refusing to be induced. Whew! However, Monday, before the hospital, I did manage to finish the Trip Around the World baby quilt. I have a picture of it somewhere, but can't find it. You'll have to forgive me for not making an extra trip up and down the stairs.

My mom and sister picked out a fat quarter for each of my children (pink, of course, for the Assistant, red for the Screamer, and a cream and blue leaf for Q). They will be fun to make something special from.

There's been no quilting this week, although I've thought about it. A new Connecting Threads magazine came, and although my experience with their fabric was disappointing and I've found their thread quality to range widely from pitiful to excellent, I do enjoy looking at the projects for ideas. It may be a while before I finish anything else. The numbers below should be pretty accurate, but I can' remember exactly how much I used on the baby quilt, so until next week, this is where I stand.

IN this week: 3/4 yard
IN YTD: 84 yards

OUT this week: 5 yards
OUT YTD: 101 1/4 yards

YTD total: 17 1/4 yards OUT
