June Fabric Usage

If not for a sudden urge to hunt down a favorite Carolyn Friedlander fabric after I used the last of it from stash, I might have resisted bringing in fabric this month, as I was furiously sewing through scraps and stash. The piece from Collection CF was actually hard to find, so I grabbed two yards when I finally found it. Chances are I won't find it next time.


The biggest fabric uses this month was for a scrappy backing and binding for one scrap quilt and another front and back for a second, plus a big (60" x 90") patchwork curtain. I also made several smaller projects - it was a very productive month, I guess - which all added up to some really good fabric usage from both the scrap basket and the stash. I won't be smug, though, as I know darn well I've already ordered a fat-quarter bundle of Carolyn Friedlander's new line, Memento; and placed a restock solid order, and both of those will show up in next month's tally. So obviously, I need to just keep sewing to help even things out.
