Stash Report Week #30

I am in so much trouble...  I finished two quilts, but I also finally accounted for all the fabric I've been gathering for my "not going to Ireland" splurge.  Despite the ridiculous numbers of yardage in, I still spent less than a plane ticket.  I have so enjoyed unpacking my goodies this week.  My favorite purchase was to ask Vicki Welsh to pack me a "mystery" box of goodies.  She asked a few questions, and I had a few things I specifically wanted, but, oh, the fabulous fabric!  She sent a number of gradients, which are going to make some excellent borders for controlled scrap quilts.

IN this week: 154 1/4 yards
OUT this week: 23 yards

IN YTD: 166 yards
OUT YTD: 98 1/2 yards
YTD Total: 67 1/2 yards IN

Oh wow! You got some really fun stuff to play with. I've got some of those blues, they are pretty. Enjoy your playing time this week. Looking forward to seeing your new additions show up in some new projects.

Great books and hand dyes. I bought a big stack of neutrals at my guild's fabric sale four or five years ago and I only have a few pieces left. Those will probably be the first fabrics you use up.
