The month I buy the least is May as I am totally involved in getting all my planting done in my garden and around my house. So really I don't take time to shop for any fabric and my money is spent @ the plant nurseries that month :-D

Recently I've been organizing my stash and I shouldn't HAVE to buy fabric for a long time. But really, depends on when payday. I'm retired now, but often go into to sub. I wear my button that says "will work for fabric".

i buy the gifts all year when i see the exact right thing... but thanksgiving dinner $$ baking ingredients $$ fancy dishes & deserts for potlucks $$ wine & nibbles christmas eve $$ christmas dinner $$ new years buffet $$

I looked at your photos! You have made some interesting block patterns.
That mite Bitsy sitting up, but sleepy is charming, and I laughed at the cat on your machine! I think, they think that we have invented some interesting toys for them!

No set time. Mostly as I need it.

Right now, during Lent season, when we are supposed to sacrifice something that really matters, so I don't get to purchase ANY fabric for the next 6 weeks. (sob, sob, sniff, sniff). But like most of you, I have enough projects and fabric to keep me busy for way past the 6 weeks, so I'll probably survive. DH has to give up Ice Cream. :) ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
