Buy as much as you can as fast as you can. Prices are going to go up soon. I always buy at least three yards of fabric that I like. That way I can even use it as a backing if I want to down the road. Some quilters buy five yards. I suggest that you buy fabric that makes you happy when you look at it. You will always be able to make something that you like with it.

JingleBerry...I think we are sisters! You buy fabric liek I buy fabric! LOL.
I don't know hwo it happens..but I just keep buying because I think it is so pretty and I can't just have one yard because one yard doesn't go very far..so I will have three or four yards of 10 bolts and before you know it two lines later and 80 yards of fabric??lol
Nice organization skills..I am using trunks and a tiny closet.
