Stash Report, Scrap Cutting

I have some stash in this week because I went to a fat quarter sale at my LQS.  Fat Quarters were $1.5, and I bought just four:  2 green for the quilt I'm working on now, one neutral for the same quilt and one orange to replenish my stash.  I think I used good restraint.  At $1.50 each, I could have gotten several more!

Used This Week: 6.5 yard (Making History Quilt)
Used Year to Date: 56.75 yards
Added this week: 1 yards 
Added year to date: 45.125 yards
 Net Used: 11.625 yards

I have a lot of blue and white left over from Making History.  I originally bought about 0.125 more of each print than the pattern suggested.  I think I have enough left to make a couple of pillow cases. 

I started watching the World Cup this week with my son who plays soccer.  I'm really not much for sports, especially sports on TV, but I got out my red, green and neutral scraps and started cutting for my Carolina Christmas quilt while the games were on.



 I really enjoyed watching Spain vs.  the Netherlands while I was cutting!  And I was glad to see Brazil getting some rain.  My brother in Brazil said they are in the midst of a bad drought and may release the 'dead' underground water to meet demand.
