Charlene came in town today for a family event and she brought me her GO! So I spent the afternoon cutting away. I have lots of binding cut for the next generation of quilts. Like 437 or so.
I still love watching the GO! work. I crank it through and am still amazed when it comes out the other side all perfectly cut! Like magic!
I also cut out a quilt for one of the graduations in June. This is for my niece who is graduating from Loyola School of Journalism. Remember when I was searching for the word fabric? I cut that for the interplay with the rainbow fat quarters. I will decide on a block at some point. I have till May or June. (But if I wait that long, we all know what will happen!)
As I was nursing poor Charlene's headache, I was setting up my fabric usage for the week. And I noticed that I had carried the 20 yards I "Purchased in January" over to "Purchased in February" as well.
Yes! An Error!
So with the backing for Santa and the backing for QR Codes and the binding for Neighborhood I used nearly 22 yards this month. And that means I am 37 yards in the black!
| Used this week | -6.42 | Used this month | -21.75 | Used this year | -57.00 |
| Bought this week | 0.00 | Bought this month | 0.00 | Bought this year | 20.00 |
| Plus or minus | -6.42 | Plus or minus | -21.75 | Plus or minus | -37.00 |
I am glad that my headache did some good. Have fun with the Go. Go to Accuquilt and see which dies you would like to try. I probably have it or know someone who will loan it to us. Next time I will bring the Go Big for you to try. NO cranking! Warning - it is addictive!
ReplyDeleteI have an Accuquilt Studio and love it. I ordered a 2 1/2 inch die but it was too long for everything else I had, so I sent it back. Now I wish I'd just ordered a new tray and plastic. One day. I imagine that you are hooked and will soon get your own. Hold out for the fancy electric one. Why not, after all?
ReplyDeleteGood job on the stash report! I have bought 15.5 and used 27.5 so I am in the black 12 yards. After cleaning up yesterday, I have come to the conclusion I don't need anymore fabric - well, at least for a little while! LOL!
