Synnove -- I like the way you think! I, too, bought during the sales. If I can stay away from them, maybe I won't buy any more for a while. All my BOOM 28 blocks have boomeranged back to me. So much fun!! I am going to quilt each block individually so I can use up parts of my stash, too. I don't buy large yardage so I don't really have anything on hand that would be a solid backing unless I use a sheet. But why use a sheet when I can use up fabric from my stash? The joy of the stash is the challenge of using it all up for me right now. Ask me again next week if I still feel the same.
