June Fabric Usage

Well..... we had a little fabric brought in this month, most of which is already made into something or at least has an intended use. First up was a selection of prints for a baby quilt for my goddaughter. I couldn't resist going to our one local quilt shop and choose something in person. Plus time was of the essence. Between the quilt top, back, and binding, most of the bundle has been used up. Perfect, right?



I also needed some solids for the Ode to Joy quilt top, so while I was at it, I ordered just a few stash replacement solids. I have a lot more on my list to get, but went with just a few extras this time.



And then - I admit, a totally impulsive purchase - just a bit of the new RSS Strawberries by Kimberly Kight @kmelkightand two cuts of Groove by Emily Van Hoff @emilyvanhoff. I have in mind to make one of her Quilted Thread Cases with the Groove, just because it looks so fun. And the strawberries were purchased with my granddaughter in my mind....


So yikes. Maybe? Or maybe not. Meanwhile, I have a couple of quilt finishes to show for myself this month, so I don't feel too bad. Onward!

  2. I have definitely been adding in extra pieces to my orders lately, too. Definitely no yikes needed as far as I can tell - you are still net negative for the year!
