    When I just can't stand it anymore, I tend to buy neutrals. I am so drawn to them and after deciding that the next quilt I make will be scrappy, you can never have enough neutrals!! I have heard that at many seminars and from scrap quilters. However, I find that I also need white on whites, but in smaller quantities than the neutrals.

    I have been mostly buying ties from the thrift stores...have about 300 now.
    My best find so far has been an Elvis tie that my son quickly grabbed.... Elvis on a "bike"... too funny!

    Blenders. I plan on making a Sampler Quilt and I want to be sure I can use my stash. But only when on sale!

    Trying to use up some of my stash - as in "scrappy bulls eye"'; that was a ton of fun....no matching!
    However a recent 50% off sale pulled me into LQS and...Oh my! - a treasure trove I couldn't resist. Silky Northcott will always attract me; bought some colors which are different for me: Visual Arts. I don't know what category but, to me, it's not traditional. Love it....how long will it sit while waiting for a project? Who knows!
    As for Christmas: I've plenty left over in that stash.

    Using up stuff, and adding only what I need for project at hand, however I am sorely tempted when I hit the fabric stores, so I only go when I NEED something!
