Fabric buying moratorium, as in you'll only buy what you need to go with things in your stash to finish projects, thread, batting, interfacing, etc. No impulse fabric purchases. No buying double what you need for a project so you have extra for the stash on purpose.

"Here are the general guidelines:
* Pull fabric from your stash. No fabric purchases to start a new quilt top from Jan 1 until November 1
What you can buy (fabric wise) is this:
* Yardage for backing, border or binding, to tie together fabric from your stash to start a new project or complete a UFO
* Special Request fabric, eg: for little Susie's wedding quilt who's favorite color is puce, which for some reason you don't have in your stash..."

Honestly, if I just make it long enough to get what I already have organized, I'll be happy. It's semi organized, but it's all still in bags! I must find a way to get it where I can see it and use it before I start buying more!
