yay - no fabric left!!
 
I am focused on using fabric in my stash. I have several pieces that I bought for a king size quilt several years ago and in reality didn't match my vision. There are 3 pieces that really don't play well w/ others, so they are being used in 2 color quilts.

Yesterday, I finished the blocks for the 3rd quilt and I am so proud that there is absolutely nothing left!! I do need to head to the fabric store to get the backing and a fabric for the border. I will do that next weekend.

The best part is that I like the fabrics much better in the "new" quilts better than the original plan.

I originally thought you meant that you had used ALL of your fabric up! I thought, wow, that is amazing. But, I am happy that you were able to have no left overs for part of your quilt. That in itself is a feat.

You must be from a different planet... :D

I am not one that typically buys fabric for "someday" because my tastes can change so much from project to project. I will say that I have enjoyed the challenge of finding a quilt to go w/ these orphan pieces of fabric.
