Elizabrat--i can honestly say that this moratorium has made me less willing to buy with abandon and more willing to walk away with a small amount or no fabric at all. I am probably not ending up with less fabric than i started with because i am still in a stash building mode. But i feel i am ending with less fabric than i would have without the moratorium. Whenever i bought fabric i had to justify the purchase, so i tried to be very thoughtful about it.
