Knitting, Quilting and more stash report

No machine sewing this week.  But I did add 9 yards of fabric.  One of my lovely daughters gave me a gift certificate last year for my birthday and I didn't want it to go to waste.

I have some tote patterns and zippered cases that I would like to make.  And I thought these fabrics were very pretty.  

Fabric Stats:

Fabric in this week:  9 yards

Fabric out this week:  0 yards

Fabric in YTD:  28.75 yards

Fabric out YTD:  7 yards

As far as yarn is concerned--nothing in but neither have I finished anything.  I have three WIP's

Mystery Afghan KAL

Faded Beanie

I also have a pair of socks on the needles.
Yarn Stats:
In this week:  0 yards
Out this week:  0 yards
In YTD:  4337 yards
Out YTD:  3180

Knitting, Quilting and More

I haven't done much with recording my stash reports this year.  I usually count my totals when I am finished with a project.  And this year I seem to be doing a lot of long term projects.  My goal starting today is to report my fabric and yarn stash reports. 
Knitting:

Faded Beanie for Eat Sleep Knit

Mystery Afghan

Completed Chevron Afgha

10 Top This Hats

                                                                                                     



Yarn YTD:  4337 yards
Yarn Out YTD:  3180 yards   

Fabric

Fat Quarter Bundle

Prepped Pieces for Block 6

Block 6

Most of my quilting revolves around needle turn applique.  Needless to say my numbers are very slow to change.  But I have made a few purchases and have one finish.
Fabric In YTD:  19.75
Fabric Out YTD:  7

Finish A Long Q 2

I have been giving this a lot of thought.  I want this quarter to be realistic.

Stash Report

Coldale

This only my second stash report for the year.  The fabric purchased this week is for specific projects.

Dinosaur Pillow Cases 

The fat quarter bundle on the right is for a tote and zippered pouches.
The total in this week is 10.75 yards



Fabric in this week:  10.75 yards
Fabric in YTD: 19.75 yards

Fabric out this week:  7 yards
Fabricout YTD:  7 yards.

My first finish for the year is Aunt Mindy's Flower Baskets which I started a gazillion years ago.  I especially like the label.

 

Slow Stitching Sunday

Welcome to my Slow Stitching Sunday project.  One of my favorite things to do is needle-turn applique.  But as I have confessed in the past, I have toooooooooo many UFO's.  Currently my mind set is to choose one project and finish it.  (This is subject to change--of course.)  This is Block 6 of Joy of Life that I am working on.

I will take some photos of the first 5 blocks.  But I hope to get a few more pieces added this week.

Goodbye March, Hello April

My resolution for this year has been to be flexible, relax and enjoy the process.  I don't often start a project and then decide that I just don't want to make it.  I have given myself permission to put things away for awhile or just frog them and move on to what brings me pleasure.

I managed to finish one of my three goals for the first quarter.
