I had to take a hard look at my buying habits and decide to change them. For a while, I couldn't find the time to quilt (which of course makes me most happy) so I think I got this attitude that fabric shopping kept me in the game so to speak. But if you're not using it up, it sure can pile up. And those fabric designers sure do their job...tempting us all the time. I've bought 2fat quarters since Dec. 28th. I haven't been able to sew much lately but will find the time soon. I already own my fair share and now I am satisfied with it.
