Woo hoo to starting off a new year and having a fresh beginning!!
I shopped on New Year's Eve and got 1 yard of fabric to start a new project for my nephew's so I ended 2013 at -117.37 yards. I've been tracking my stash usage for a few years now and here is how 2013 stacked up against the prior years.
| 2009 usage |
-178.21 |
| 2010 usage |
-101.93 |
| 2011 usage |
-61.15 |
| 2012 usage |
36.06 |
| 2013 usage |
-117.37 | | |
This was my second worse year since I started keeping track, but I think from my
2013 finishes it is clear that I am not sewing on my own projects nearly enough.
This year,
Kara has
challenged some friends to not buy any fabric for six months. She also found some other bloggers who have started a
Fabriholics Anonymous challenge.
For my rules, I am going to allow myself to buy the B's - backings, borders, bindings and backgrounds. Basically anything that I need to finish a project.
And I am going to work on my UFOs. And to work on my UFOs, I am going to have a UFO parade on my blog sometime in the next week or so. This means that I will have to pull out all of my UFOs and take pictures to show on my blog and will probably create a huge mess in my studio. But it must be done!
