I shopped my stash to make Bonnie Hunter's 2016 Mystery Quilt, En Provence. THEN a bunch of us in a Bonnie Group, shopped other's stash. I did have to end up buying some purples, but only 2 fat quarters. It's in flimsy form. I'm trying hard to "use it up" after a post I saw in an Online Quilt Guild about a quilter who left so much fabric it took a several of days to sell. AND they kids were selling @ $1.00 a yd. I don't want to be the "$1.00 a Yd Mother". I want to leave just enough that my grand daughters might want to keep it.
When I bring a guild kit home there is usually enough focus fabric to make a 2nd smaller quilt. SO I use MY stash and make another, without buying a thing.
I'm really trying.
