Although my stash does not appear to be greatly reduced, it was used significantly for projects this past year (both new and UFO's). It wasn't planned, it just happened.

0h boy! I will wish you all good luck. However, I could not (in good conscious) say that I'll join in. I'd be able to make it until August. However, in September there's a wonderful shop hop that I enjoy too much to say that I won't go, would be a big fat lie!

Same here!! BTW -- where DO I put the stuff for me to get it organized? House is small and full. About a year ago I did the same thing: pledged to shop no more except for necessities to finish up a top, etc.: cleaned up, folded fabric and placed on shelves, in drawers, and filled in bins by projects. Throughout the years, took fabrics off shelves, out of bins, etc. Now everything is all tumbled and needs attention; PLUS all the new purchases in bags, piles. My name is Gail and I hoard fabric. But I will not quit. Once more I will say NO MORE FABRIC COMES IN.

But if I don't feed my stash it will die!!!

I'm all in. I stuck to my word pretty must this year. Only bought a few pieces to finish stuff.

Sounds like a great idea....you can include me too!!

Wow, this could not have come at a more opportune time for me. I have had to pull everything from my sewing room to have new flooring put down. Didn't realize how much I had.

I had already vowed to use up not buy and this thread will keep me going.

Now, if the flooring was just done so I could start organizing when I put things away!
