Yes, donnajean, me too! you have the right idea! I won't even browse online or at the stores for fabric right now. Maybe in the Spring.
I'd like to work my way through my stash for 2011, only buying backing fabric when needed.
Blessings,
MaryAnna

It's the fabric company's fault - THEY are the ones putting their fabric on sale and enticing us, right??? Bear Paw Quilting got me for about $100 today - they have a bunch of quilting fabric for $3.49/yd. If there's a cure for this, I think I only want half a dose (-;

To help satiate my being a fabric junkie I will look at a sale site and put all I want in the cart. Then when I go look at the cart and see the total, I nearly faint and delete it all. That way I can shop and not buy anything. I do the same thing at places like WalMart. Fill my buggy, decide what I don't need and return the items where I got them. When I stated quilting, my DD's made me promise not to stockpile fabric. Too bad--I just got better at hiding it. I do buy but not as much as I think I want.
