Congratulations Pet, you are working toward your goal! Keep letting us know how you are working your personal moratorium out.

Although I am not looking to leave this world any time soon, I know that there are more years behind me than ahead of me, so I am working on reducing my gathering of fabric with a purpose. I don't want to leave a mess behind and I in the meantime I want to bless others with a hug and a warm snuggle made with beautiful cuts of fabric.
I love this! I had never thought of butterscotch and light baby pink as "neutrals" before, but what a great idea! And what a wonderful challenge, to treat these colors as neutrals and see what can be accomplished with them.
