I have been so busy trying to build a small stash..I found that when I wanted to practice making circles or any other pattern I wanted to try before incorperating it into a huge project...I couldn't bare to cut up and practice on any of the precious fabric I've collected so far... So I started digging through closets for shirts/sheets and anything else I could find around the house to practice on lol...
I'd definitley save a few of those shirts for practice material if you don't like the idea of cutting up any of your stash...
