@all2pieces, I appreciate your thought process and want to caution you. If you look at this moratorium as an "all or nothing" proposition you could set yourself up to fail. I did that in the beginning and went into withdrawal at the thought of "oh dear - no more new fabric?" Once I started viewing this moratorium in earnest, I stopped a lot of my impulse buys. I stopped most of the fabric sale emails and I made a commitment to work on UFOs. All that said, I still shop for backings, I still get to supplement projects if the stash does not yield the right combination, and I still get to fill in color gaps. On occasion when I really feel the need to buy fabric for the sake of the enjoyment, I buy it and gift it. Just have fun with the rest of us. We are always here when one of us falls (or jumps) off the wagon.
