I rarely do CQ anymore because of my hands, so I decided to make the challenge for myself to be to use 2020 different fabrics by the end of December 2020. To that end I'm counting the number of fabrics in a project when it leaves my hands as a gift/donation or when it is finished if it is for myself. I am also counting the number buttons, zippers or other miscellaneous stuff.
I'm not counting any interfacing or fleece/batting that I may use in making the projects.
Catching up on my totals for the first 2 1/2 months of the year:
*******
Cross-body Purse 1 (scrappy silks) - 18 fabrics, 1 button
Cross-body Purse 2 (scrappy batiks) - 17 fabrics, 1 button
Passport wallet prototype - 3 fabrics
Commissioned passport wallet (Peggy) - 2 fabrics, 2 d-rings, 2 clips, 1 button
Scrappy charms quilt top (given in trade for a handmade journal) - 66 fabrics
Baby Wall hanging - 9 fabrics, 2 buttons
Kitchen accessories - 11 fabrics, 1 button
Project for publication - 5 fabrics
Commissioned potholders, set 1 - 2 fabrics
Potholder - 2 fabrics
Art challenge quilt - 5 fabrics
Totals for the years -
Fabrics - 157
Buttons - 7
Zippers - 1
Other - 5
Gratitudes:
1. A stash that has most anything I need in it.
2. Working sewing machines!
That's a good start on your 2020! Sew, are you using the Elna for all this? I was thinking about that earlier today. Is it paid off yet? I almost bought one on closeout last August in Ohio, the model down a couple from yours. I resisted with the greatest of difficulty.
