I tink I've balanced the fabric diet with "exercise" because I sold at least as much as I bought in the past three weeks. Fabric I'll never use and so why have it taking up valuable space if it's not inspiring to look at ? I've also given away a gallon of scraps so things are looking more serene . And like my mom always said to my dad whenever she'd buy umpteen books at a time, "If you think THIS is a lot, you should see what I left at the store!"
