Last Stash Report of 2016

To be completely honest with myself I am getting in my last numbers of 2016.  I had time this past week to get 2 bags of donated fabric added up and put away and had one last trip to the thrift store.

2 bags of donated fabric (not pictured):  19.25 yards
The fishy fabric (lower right) is destined for a school auction quilt this Spring.
4 pieces from Thrift Store.  5.56 yards.  $1.75

I also had time for a few small finishes.
Lucy seems to have settled in to her pillow just fine.

Lucy's Pillowcase:  2.29 yards

Made from someone's leftovers.  Love the brights!

Small Quilt top from Scrap Box Scraps: 1 yard

Last Stash Report of 2016

Fabric Used/Out This Week: 3.29 yards
Fabric Used/Out in 2016: 74.01 yards


Fabric In This Week:  24.81  yards
Fabric In 2016: 121 yards
 

Net Used 2016: 46.99 yards stashed

Out of curiosity I went back to look at my stash reports throughout the year.   Even though the yardage coming in was high, my actual expenses were not.  

69.50 yards purchased at a cost of $50.00
51.50 yards acquired at a cost of $00.00

121 yards in for $50

Bottom Line:   $0.41/yard 

So I am calling 2016 a good year for the stash.  But I really need to stay away from that thrift store and stick closer to the sewing machine in 2017!
