I was faithful to the moratorium because I as broke due to some very high expenses. Later in the year I was able to sell my husband's silver collection and money was much easier. BUT...... I did such a good job not spending and shopping from my stash, I decided to keep going and reducing my stash as well. Only thing I bought was a whole roll of batting at JoAnn's for 50% off and several yards of heavy Pellon to line my tote bags etc.
An ASG buddy works in a quilt shop where they cut their own 2 1/2 strips for jelly rolls. They collect bags full of end pieces which I use to knit purses. Real popular among my friends.
