So for this stashbusting report, please don't judge me. You know how it is when you're facing all that yummy fabric all those fun patterns and beautiful quilts. But wait--my husband actually told me he'd like to have a Civil War quilt. (This is the guy who asked me, like 5 years ago, "How many quilts does a person need, Sweetie?") Guess what? I don't have a single piece of Civil War fabric in my stash! What's that mean???? Say it with me, ladies and gentlemen. . . I GET TO BUY MORE FABRIC!!!!
So here are the stats for this week:
- Yardage purchased this week: 10.75 yards
- Yardage purchased year to date: 15 yards
- Yardage used this week: 3 yards (for the classes I took)
- Yardage used year to date: 23
- Net used 2011: 8
- . . . .and I was doing so well. . .

You are still doing well and you had to buy fabric to make that quilt for your guy.
I agree that your numbers are still good and you had a plan for all of those yards that you bought.
Do you have a plan for the civil war quilt (book, class, Brackman's block of the week). Looking forward to seeing pictures later of the fabric and the projects from the classes.

Well, you're still in the black, so that's good, lol.
in my pre-stash-busting days i've been known to come home from a quilt show with almost half the show in my back seat, according to hubby, LOL.
I think you showed incredible restraint and great planning ability in your purchases this week. WAY TO GO!
Thats still not to bad, considering you were surrounded by it - everywhere!!!
Its hard to go to a show and not buy anything. But when your guy asks for something, you just have to do it. Your numbers still look good to me.
You are still in the black so you haven't been all THAT bad!! he he
DH & I will be going to a quilt show in April in and I'm going to have to be very careful that I don't come home with more fabric!
You are still in the black and hopefully the quilt your guy has requested will come together quickly so you can count that came in going back out.
Hope you are having a blast! I want to hear all about it when you get back.
