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

Goal for 2011 to use 10% less than I buy. Working well so far!

I love to buy fabric also, guess that is why we all need the stash report to help us. I am still buying but more selectively. It needs to be for a current project, or something I know I will use SOON. I don't want anymore of this buy a bunch of fabric, bundle it together and it still be sitting there 4 years later.

Don't we all love to buy fabric, lol. That's why we're here "fessing up."

I like your goal...to use 10% of what you buy.

Sorry about the old computer, but thre is something fun about having a nice shiny new one.

Congratulations on staying on track with your goals for your stash management.

At first I misread your goal as being "use 10% of what I buy." I think that would be appropriate for me! :)
