Quilts Finished in 2018 and Final Stash Report

  I finished 16 quilts this year!  That's two more than last year, so I feel very productive.  Never mind that several of these quilts were already tops and all I did was take them to the longarmer and then bind.  At least they aren't hanging half-done in my closet.

As for my final stash report of 2018, it looks ok.  It was better before I bought fabric for my nephew's high school graduation quilt, but I found the perfect fabric for him and was afraid to wait until 2019 because it might be gone then. My final stash figures look better this year than last. I bought less fabric and I used more of it this year.

2018    30.875 yards added
2017   109.5 yards added
2016   20.875 yards added
2015   6.357 yards used
2014   2.5 yards added
2013   9.5 yards added
2012   20.25 yards used

Obviously a very productive year!

How do you keep track of your stash use? I would like to start doing that in 2019. I've created a spreadsheet for myself, but wondered if you have any tips as you have been doing it for so many years?
