Most I have ever spent is 50 dollars on fabric and that was joanns black friday sale on the good flannel for 99 cents a yard.I probaly spend quite a bit but do it in more trips.......and then there are the garage sales and thrift stores :D I have never kept track.........I do have to be careful because I am on SS and there is no other money coming in :D My favorite quilts are the scrappy calico one so thats good
