Hey guess what? I bought NO fabric this week. That's great considering the huge amount I bought last week. I won't say I haven't been very tempted though. Very, very tempted. There is a good sale going on at Hancock's of Paducah on some of their pre-cuts. On one hand, I don't need any more fabric. But on the other, I could make some great quilts to give away for not a lot of money. What would you do? You'll have to check back next week to see what I've decided.
I used 2 yards of fabric this week while practicing doing pantographs on my Grace frame.

I also finished 2 more blocks for the Ladies of the Sea quilt I'm making for Mr. Quilting Bug. The backgrounds used a little less than half a yard and the appliques a little more than half a yard, so I'm calling 1 yard total.

In addition, I finished the June and July Camelot Snowman mini wall hangings for my mom. I used half a yard to complete them.

And finally, I also finished the Stuffed Feathers table mat where I tried out some trapunto. Again this only took half a yard of fabric.

So my grand total for all these small projects (in size - not time) was 4 yards!
Purchased-this-week: 0 yards
Used-this-week: 4 yards
Purchased-to-date: 112 yards
Used-to-date: 169.25 yards
Net used: 57.25 yards
