Nita,
{So my goal for 2019 is to resist buying fabrics simply because 1.) I like them 2.) they are on sale or 3.) I have a coupon burning in my pocket. In other words, I allow myself to buy fabrics only when I actually "need" and plan to use in a project I am currently working on. }
This is a great plan, and actually great inspiration as well. Thanks for sharing it. I find your top 3 reasons have been my justification for buying more fabric, all the time. I am inspired to keep trying to buy only if I "need" that fabric to finish a project and only after perusing my stash first.
