I've done pretty good with only one slip up. I was making a cow quilt from my stash and panicked when I realized that I would not have any more happy cows living in my closet, and bought 2 1/2 yards of more cow fabric. I've had to buy some border fabric and some reds & blues for 3 Americana quilts that I'm getting paid to make. DH just laughed when I confessed and ask me if it was on sale. It WAS but I still want to use up some more of my stash. So far I've made 3 quilts and 2 tops to be quilted and 2 tote bags from just my stash. I'm slowly making a dent in my stash.
