I have used some of my "odd" fabric on charity tops recently. Not that they were ugly or bad, they just weren't anything I would use for me. Some little girl will be happy with little pink flowers and applique hearts I'm sure.
Good going, everyone. I believe that solids should be on the "allowed" list. They are the neutrals that we NEED to replenish from time to time. There - I said it!

On Saturday, I made my first fabric purchase of the year and it was backing fabric, I bought from a friend. So I'm still on the wagon.

Nope nothing I need I probably have enough fabric to keep me busy all year. Maybe I just need to get it all out and roll around in it. I'm sure Glenda the cat would help me.

THAT is what you will be allowed to buy. It will satisfy the urge, control the amount, and keep the impulse-buying crazy person at bay. Keep the jar and pull it out the next time you get the urge.
