Fabric Report - Week 22, 2015

Nothing in or out of the fabric stash this week, so my totals remain the same.  However I am nearing the end of the deadline for the donation of pillowcases that will go to St. Louis Children's Hospital the middle of June.

I am aiming for 52 and the count is at 50, so only 2 more to go to reach my goal.  There is still more dragon fabric cut for pillowcase size, but they will be done at a later time for a different group.  I'm pretty tired of looking at that fabric for a while!

Fabric Added - O
Fabric Used since 4/19 - 7.5 yds (mostly pillowcases and one border)

Fabric Used YTD -  45.5 yds

Linking up with Patchwork Times.

On The Needles - May 29, 2015

The needles have been a little quiet lately, but I'm making progress on my Hermione's socks.  Hope to start the toe decreases soon and then it's all downhill from there.  


I did finish up another facecloth over the last week or two.  It really isn't as lopsided as it appears in the picture.:)


Stop by Judy's to see what other knitting projects are being worked on this week.

Fabric Report- Week 21

Can you believe it.  It's been over 4 weeks since I've posted ... did anyone miss me?  Probably not because you may have been as busy as me.  At least one of my friends told me he missed seeing me on the blog.  Thanks Kevin for giving me a kick in the behind to get back to business.

I promised an update of whether or not I was able to resist buying fabric in Paducah.   Well, let's see....I definitely did not come home empty handed.  it was a great show as usual and the weather was perfect this year.  I didn't think it was a crowded as in the past, but I was there later in the week this year.

Here are some of the things I brought home with me - thread (a new kind - Iris all cotton), a V-block ruler, yarns (the knit shop was closing so the prices were great) ,a 17" swivel cutting mat, a 72" square portable design wall, and more fun things to keep me busy.  But do you see any fabric??  Nope... I was such a good girl -- no fabric to add to my stash this time.



So here's where I stand since my last fabric report way back in April.
