Fat quarters on sale, esp if I have something in mind for down the road I stock up on FQ, remembering to get lights, mediums, and darks.
Hope this helps you to get started. enjoy the process
Me too. Also, I asked my guild for donations for a charity project. *be careful what you ask for!* My stash multiplied exponentially overnight! They all thanked me for helping them organize and reduce their stash.
