Ugh. Good thing I didn't make any New Year's resolutions against fabric-purchasing. Between a good sale, what felt like a necessary restock or two, a new BOM, and a secret (for now) gift, plenty of new fabric was welcomed in during January.
- A few yards of Kona Lemon (I rarely have that much of any solid, and the price point made it a no-brainer) and a Checks bundle from a Fabric Bubb detash. I knew those checks could be combined into a future project that I'd really enjoy.
- Tiny Treaters Stripe Charcoal, which I'd recently used up for finishing Shattered, and I knew I'd want more for future projects. That, and it's getting harder and harder to find.
- Solids for the afore mentioned BOM, Weave Got This!, February's Block Studies Collective palette, and a couple restocks for stash.
- Marcia Derse Palette in a handful of colors for that secret project I mentioned. Honestly, I'd love to be able to have all the colors of this blender line in my stash.
- Then finally, just a half-yard of Alison Glass Sun Print Whisper Topography in Chartreuse, which has proven to be a perfect addition for that project I can't share yet.
So yeah, that's a lot, but already a good portion of it is being put to use. With several projects going on at once, I'm not regretting any of my choices. So the overall stats may not look so goo, but the year has just begun.
January Fabric Usage
Used up: 16.52 yards [11.47 projects + 5.05 recycled/donated]
Brought in: 15.25 yards
Net: -1.27 yards
It doesn't look bad to me! You used up a lot to balance out what came in. I look forward to seeing how these fabrics get used in the secret project. :)
