I just outed myself as an Ontarian, didn't I? Here in Canada, the Monday before May 25th is a holiday whose official name is Victoria Day - this commonwealth country celebrates Queen Victoria's birthday (which is actually May 24th). It's a "statutory" holiday, meaning most people have that day off work, thereby creating the first long weekend of the summer season. In Ontario, it's called the May Two-Four Weekend, a take-off on the fact that Victoria Day falls around the 24th of the month. And a 24-pack of beer is called a Two-Four - many of which are consumed over that long weekend.
Aaaanyway, if you're still reading, it's Stash Report time!

Eh, what can I say? My friend Judy's shop had a big sale last week and I have a lovely credit there since working with her at the Sewing Expo last month. I got some Kona Cotton (2 lovely metres of Chartreuse, my new love) and a cute Echino polka dot.
Nothing out this week as I'm still working on my Modify Tradition swap quilt.
At least those sound like good, sensible purchases! And you've still used quite a bit this year! Enjoy your weekend.
