    I'm in - with the caveat for batting and bits needed to tie stash fabrics together. Was doing well until this week...

    Cheers, K

    I really need to do this, my little daughter told me I have enough fabric for 100 quilts. I'm sure I do. No new fabric unless essential for a current project.

    I can't join in on this, my stash is getting low. In the past 3 months I've made one queen size, two full size, and four lap/throw size quilt tops. Now I have to make DH a quilt and he wants it in southwest colors.

    I am ready to do this. I have guests coming for Christmas and wonder where to put them. I need to use up a good deal of quilting fabric and gift someone with a huge quantity of apparel fabric. January 1, here we come. My LQS has a sale for Black Friday. I bought 3/4 yard I needed to start a baby quilt. I think I can fill in the rest from my Moda Marble Swirls. I was pleased with myself.

    I'm in. I have several tubs of stash and many UFOs. Hubby and I are building a new house and will be moving by June so I am going to be be busy and not having to time to sew anyway. Not to mention that anything I get I would have to to pack/move.

    I, too, will try as I do have an extensive stash, pattern and book collection. Sew many ideas and desire to create designs....

    To keep myself accountable, I will begin a notebook to record my use of fabric, books and patterns. My stash runneth over! Your reminders will be helpful.

    I plan to limit myself to kona solids in black and white. Then I can use a lot of my scraps.

    I've been telling myself to not buy anymore fabric but the Christmas fabric is on sale and I need some of that but I like the rest of you need to use the stash as much as possible and not buy anything else I have no more space to put it and don't even know what all I have to go with everything but I'm with you all.

    I have stash but I am buying and collecting if I can afford it. With prices going up I am so happy for all the stash I have.
