3 weeks into 2009 and I still have not purchased any fabric, but this week I received some fabric gifts. Since I plan to report all fabric as it's busted, I will consider gifts of fabric to be additions to the stash. Thankfully I'm still on the plus side of the stashbusting totals :)Note: The above photo is just some of the jelly rolls in my stash, I'm still trying to find the "perfect" jelly roll pattern.
Yesterday I had planned to cut some more fabric for my Superbowl Sunday project, but I messed up my back around the bottom of my left shoulderbalde and have not been able to get around too well since then.
Here's this week's report:
Fabric added this week: 4.75 yards
Fabric added year to date: 4.75 yards
Fabric used this week: 2.75 yards
Fabric used year to date: 10.25 yards
Net fabric busted: 5.5 yards
Today was the Band Booster Vera Bradley Bingo Fundraiser. I donated the quilt in this post to the raffle. We made nearly $1,000 on the raffles and I received alot of compliments on the quilt. The tickets were only on sale today and there were 211 people at the event. So not too bad for a day's work. I also won one of the bingo games and brought a lovely Very Bradley Raspberry Fizz Cargo Sling Purse home with me. I am soooooo excited because I am not the luckiest person when it comes to these games. YAY me!!!

Congrats on your big win! What a great idea for a band fundraiser. Our HS band is raising money for a trip to Hershey Park and my 8th grader is going to DC this spring. I might have to volunteer to make some raffle quilts!
