I am not going to talk about falling off the wagon. I simply did not have the needed fabric for a batik graduation quilt. I purchased 2.5 yards for the background and 7- 9" width cuts of fabric to needed to finish the quilt. Nothing extra but will likely have to purchase back for this later next month.
I also purchased 3 yards of coordinating fabric for my quilting group's mystery quilt. I had a focus fabric in stash, the largest piece, but I needed background and two other colors. One more very odd one color, 3/4 yard, then that will be ready. That is what happens when you shop your stash for 6 or 7 years..... you start to run out of what you need.
