I was pretty successful in 2014, and hope to continue in 2015. I knew I would be near Mary Jo's in Gastonia about a year ago, so I stopped and bought the material for a quilt I have been wanting to make - still have not made it, but it is on the list for this year. All the quilts/projects I made in 2014 came from my stash. I only needed to buy one small piece of material to complete one project.
