stash report Feb 12, 2017

I thought Joann was having a great sale. All the fabric was on sale and then there was a coupon for 25% off regular and sale fabric purchase. Sounds like a winner, but the small print says only if on a day that doesn't end with a y. It is really hard to find a genuine deal. So I think my 25% off was 2.81. Still, I was happy that I didn't get toooo much.  A few remnants...

The big purchase was the Kona Graphite for this great quilt I saw on Sarah's blog Confessions of a fabric addict called exploding stars. I want to make this quilt, so I have added it to the line up. Isn't it wonderful? She has other star quilts she is sharing - really great!

A wee bit of valentine fabric...

I have arrived at this point with American Beauty Rose and will be hand stitching this today - I am so excited

As a goal this year, I said no more buying remnants. At least I made it to February. 

It is hard to resist when the remnants are 50 % off the sale price and there is a lot of fabric on sale.

The turquoise fabric on the left was a whole yard on sale 40% off and was 4.79. Then the remnant was 2.40 for the yard. Christmas was 60% off, flannel was 2.69 a yard and then 1/2 off. And this is very useable  for my projects. I am still on the positive side so I'll punish myself by sewing a few more hourglass blocks, hang my head a moment, and then get back to it.

I am knitting socks this evening for slow Sunday stitching and my much needed day of rest.
