Stashbusting Report 2011-02-13 (or "When Free is Not Free")

Tuesday I stopped for 1/2 yd of white for a border on my GFG.  Also came home with 2 yds of a paisley that would be awesome for a StackNWhack (in 5 years after it has time to marinate in the fabric cupboard).

Saturday I went to a LQS with this month's coupon for a free pattern.  Found a neat one, but walked by the table of the precuts and spotted a bundle of 20 Batik FQs that I've eyed a couple times.  So my "free" pattern cost me $46 and 5 yds of fabric.  And I knew when I saw the coupon that this is what they wanted and I succumbed anyway.

I was too busy shopping to do any sewing this week.  As soon as I finish typing this post, I'm headed up to sew - I should get 2 whole hours, and at least 2 yds of bust, but that will show up on next week's report.

Used this week: 0
Used YTD: 27.8 yds

Added this wee: 7.5 yds
Added YTD: 30.5 yds

Net bust: -2.7 yds.  ACK!  SOMEBODY STOP ME!!!  :)

I've not bought any batik fabric yet...I have too much other stuff to use up.
