With making these quilts I used 27,620 yards of quilting thread. I had bought 24,000 yards of thread in 2016 - mostly cones of black, gray, and navy for t-shirts quilt - but overall I am down 4,000 yards from what I started with in 2016.
I emptied 29 spools this year.
My fabric stash has also been reduced. I bought 23.75 yards in 2016 and used 98.25 for a reduction of 74.5 yards. I did not count the fronts of the t-shirt quilts as part of my stash. I straightened out my fabric storage room while I was off and have reconfirmed the fact that I don't need to add to my stash this year so I won't be buying anything unless I need something very specific.
You had a terrific productive year and all while working a full time job and walking miles and miles!
