Saturday Stash Status - The I Was Bad Edition







remember how months ago i pre-ordered all the cotton + steel? well, it finally arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  this picture's for you, beth.  it all arrived in two Priority  Mail boxes.  the largest is exactly ringo-sized.



 



by my rough calculations, it totals around 43 yards.  look how nicely it all fits on one shelf in my Bily bookcase.  i haven't taken it out of the plastic bags yet, though.  i have a special project i have to finish first before i can start playing with this!

I love how you sew your stash rather than "de-stash". Personally, I think you deserved 140 yards of Cotton + Steel! And a truck didn't hav to back up to your door & no dollies were involved! Yay!!!!
