Let me begin my stash report with the statement that I have decided to eliminate "no-buy" from my goals for 2011.
Here's some of my fabric yumminess...
I apologize for the dark/blurry pictures. Bear Cub Q wanted to grab my camera, and it was night by the time I decided to take pictures, but at least you get an idea of the 23 1/2 yards I bought so far.
OUT this week: 0 yards
OUT YTD: 43 1/2 yards
IN this week: 23 1/2 yards
IN YTD: 164 1/2 yards
YTD Total: 121 yards in

My mom, Screamer, Bear Cub Q, and I spent last weekend visited my recently-deceased godfather's family. While we were there, his sister returned to me the quilt I had made for him at Christmas time several years ago (I love it... it smells like his house) as well as a check, my "inheritance," if you will. Most of that check will go to pay down our house debt, bringing us 6+ months closer to a payoff day! However, I did already spend some of it on fabric and yarn. Some of the fabric is in my possession... the yarn and a shipment of fabric should arrive next week. Joe would have wanted me to enjoy it, and I also gave away a tithe of it, so I feel good with what I did.
While Mom drove, I crocheted, so you can see some of my results.

Love the wooville hat. Think on this tiny one might be better without the pom pom.
Nice nice fabrics. I am definitely NOT doing a no buy this year. I am being more selective and freshening my stash but still trying to use up the older stuff. I think that is a great goal.
With pom pom ;) Cute pics
Newborns and babies - without the pompom. Toddlers and up - with the pompom.
And I love your yummies! Very YUMMY! ;)
Sorry about your Godfather and what a great way to honor him by using your inheritance wisely! Not only are you 6 months closer to ending the mortgage but you are that much richer for not paying those 6 months of interest!
Enjoy your fabric and books. I know you will think of him with each stitch.
