Oh, your supposed to go through it before you start another project?!?lol That explains a lot of it. It depends on how I'm feeling. If I feel like digging through it then yes, otherwise, it's more fun to go buy more. My friend said she had the fabric, she could see it, but it was on the bottom of the pile and she didn't want to mess up the rest of the fabric so she just bought more. Had to laugh!!!
