Definitely this trip has helped me...one event that I was buying too much fabric was when my visiting sister had a look at my stash and declared, "Gee, you have $1000 worth of fabric here..." and well it got me thinking that I could spend my money differently. So I imposed a $ limit on what I spend which is working for me. Shop hop is happening this weekend....QBuddy and I haven't done one in a while...I must stay strong......
