I anticipated hanging my head in shame this week over a stash report with numbers moving in the wrong direction. One of my quilt groups had a mini shop hop planned for yesterday. I knew I couldn’t visit three shops without buying something.
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I was unable to go with the group. I did meet them at the first shop, which is only ten minutes from the office. I’m not sure if the ability to fabric shop at lunch is a good thing or bad thing. We’ll call it good and leave it at that.
I also dropped off my quilt at a second quilt shop for transport to the Sauder Village Quilt Fair. They take quilts out for $2 each, which saved me a two hour round trip.
I didn’t buy anything at either shop, but I have to go back to the second shop Tuesday to pick up my tickets for the show. Sauder Village also has a quilt shop, so this week has stash increasing potential.
After I got home and finished pouting about not going on the shop hop, I sewed these two blocks for the May QOV meeting. I used a whopping quarter yard of fabric.
Fabric in this week: 0 yards
Fabric in YTD: 9.25 yards
Fabric out this week: .25 yards
Fabric out YTD: 16 3/8 yards
