Most of my quilting is done for charity. Folks know that so it seems there is some kind of a sign pointing to my house-and my stash grows larger each time I give away a pile of quilts or lap robes.
I think of this as the Lord providing me with fabric to help others.

I'm not crazy about fat quarters mostly because they are more expensive than yardage. For me it makes more sense to buy 1/2 yd increments unless I really love the fabric and think I may want it as a focus or inspiration fabric that I may want to use for a border. then I would buy 1-3 yards!!

I mostly buy 2 or 3 yards or the end of the bolt. Occasionally I'll buy 5 yards. Which reminds me, I need to get cutting and sewing. Yikes.
