So happy for all of you that are holding to their fabric moratorium pledge. Congratulations.

As for me-----I have been so bad. The end of January, I was told that I was going to be a great aunt in July. I decided on Saturday that I would work from my stash but I needed to make neutral boy/girl quilt. My husband loves to drive, so we took a 2 hour drive to Wales, MA. I had bought a pattern by Nancy Zimmerman on my last visit, thinking I had enough reds and beiges, but I didn't, so I needed to buy the fabric for that quilt to honor Nancy. While there, I saw the neutral quilt pattern that I needed, and the background is green, that my niece loves. So 2 quilt tops and $130 later!!!!! My January purchase.

And so today, I wanted/needed reds and blues for Kathleen Tracey's and the Buttermilk Basin internet blocks. So off we went and then $62 later.

I promise no more shopping in February.

But then comes March, a shop hop.

So I guess I have been banned from your group.

My stash is extensive, as you may have guessed.
