I think I did pretty good. I used to spend an average of $200 a month on quilting. I probably spent about $300 for this entire year.

I was making the Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt during the year with a group here. I did buy fabrics for that, but mostly fat quarters and only on sale. I also buy from Thousands of Bolts, 5 bucks a yard and Connecting Threads.

As the FWS took all my quilting time, I didn't do much on the UFO's. I do have a list of 20 UFO's that I've started. I put them in order of which one is the closest to finishing and start there. Beyond that I probably have about 30 other quilts that I've already bought all the fabric for that will take up another few years.

I will continue this until I've made all those quilts and continue to only buy what I need for a UFO to finish. I just stay away from quilt stores and this year stayed away from online stores too.

I find I'm just as happy working on UFO's as any other quilt. A quilt's a quilt; as long as I'm quilting I'm happy!
