Design Wall Monday
I finally finished stitching down the last bits of block one in my Folk Art quilt. I'm in love. Only 8 more blocks to go before the centre is complete.

Stash Report
Fabric used 1/4 metres
Fabric bought 4 metres
Total fabric used 12 3/4 metres
Total fabric bought 108 3/4 metres
Goal for 2011 to use 10% less than I buy. Working well so far!
The lack of sewing could be explained by too much time playing this.

A new laptop and using the stash.
My laptop died today so of course I needed to go and get a new one. If it wasn't the year of fiscal restraint I may have bought a Mac Book Pro but as it is I just stayed with what I know and bought another HP.
Wish those dramas could be used to explain the stash report - but alas no. Truth is I like buying fabric.
Fabric used 1 1/4 metres
Fabric bought 9 1/2 metres
Total fabric used 12 1/2 metres
Total fabric bought 104 3/4 metres

Stash report and Cleo
I did say I had hit the buy button big time and lots of it came in this week. Only waiting for one more parcel to arrive.
Fabric used 3/4 metre
Fabric bought 20 3/4 metres
Total fabric used 11 1/4 metres
Total fabric bought 95 1/4 metres
Goal for 2011 to use 10% less than I buy. Not looking good. Seems I have reversed things around and have used 10% of what I have bought. Still it''s only March so lots of room to improve.
I snapped this photo of Cleo during the week. She never lies across the steps -- no - she must always have her front feet dangling over the edge. Love our girl.
