Stash Busting 2017 - I WILL use my mountains of craftstash before buying more!

I like jellie am counting items I have made without buying any new stash.

I am declaring a further 11 items towards my total:

5-12. Prayer Boxes for order
13. Fairy Jar for order
14 & 15 - Earrings (also used some card stock by mounting them all pretty)

Happy stash busting

Greentiger you probably need a break- I was worn out just reading about your makes in the last thread!
Project 2 completed from stash- an art journal for a friend.

Managed to get more stash busting done today as needed items for orders so am declaring a further 5 items towards my total

16 & 17. Prayer Box (order)
18 & 19. Magic believe bells (order)
20.Wooden heart (order)

I did receive a massive box full of new supplies from The Works today though

Bu tthey were ordered before 2017 so I haven't cheated yet

Keep stash busting everyone

Hi all, new forum member but long time lurker!

Would love to join in this year. My stash is getting beyond a joke!

I would like to aim for 12 projects. I have a cross stitch disney picture for a friends little one on the go at the minute and have at least 5 other projects planned!

1. Decorated spread in filofax - used up the end of a washi tape and a few stickers... have tons of stickers so won't count them.
2. Leatherette filofax ring protector
3. Leatherette filofax fly leaf front page

Jellie, it comes in fits and starts.
I've started another (different) crochet blanket, but I don't think I can count it as stash as I bought the wool specifically for it - even although I bought it in September!
I was in the Range today and I didn't buy anything - unless 3 wee rolls of Christmas washi tape (price 50p) counts

Please forgive me for i have sinned.

I went to a hospital appointment in london and outside they have a fabric stall.Plain cotton is only £1.50 a metre.Usually its about £4.99 in the shops.

im not going again so thats my excuse and im sticking to it &#55357;&#56834;&#55357;&#56834;&#55357;&#56834;&#55357;&#56834;

I thought you count projects made without buying stash.I can't decide what to count now.

I have made a project from a kit i brought last year. So thats my 1/20

Project 3 from stash- art journal for me. Will have to work out pictures at some point!

Count me in please, I'm making my own clothes this year and trying to use up all my fabric brought back from when we lived in India. I'm going to aim for 40. That will include quilts for gifts and home as well as summer tops and dresses.
