Beautiful blocks! I haven't been very good this year. Binged at Missouri Star last week!!! But to assuage my guilt- I recently gifted a lot of fabric I knew I wasn't going to use

I gave away much more than I bought so I'm okay, right???

How you use your fabric is up to you! If you aren't going to use it, out it goes IMHO.

Good job everyone. I have survived 2 weeks! I had a class on Saturday, but it was just to make a pillow and I used fabric from my stash. I need to finish it this week.

I am going to Road to California next week also. I may take one fabric that I need to match for setting triangles. But am limiting my spending to just cash. I hope that helps.

I need to organize my stash and my sewing room. Fabric is flowing into the guest room

seriously...that first collection in the catalog is gorgeous. We both are resisting but I need do more than that and toss the catalog. Lol! It's just laying there taunting me. Your new tools sound great. You'll have to share how the stitch strip for open seams works out.

Thank's to all who commented on my blocks. Yesterday was a no quilting day. Today looks to be more productive.

I buy way less than I used to so even though I bought some already this year I'm still going to join. When I made my Shakespeare in the Park last fall I only bought one yard of fabric! The rest was all stash.

Shakespeare in the Park quilted!!

Well, I made it 2 whole weeks. My girlfriend also saw the new CT collection. She came over & shopped online. Her Christmas gift to me was some money to spend with her order. I guess I could have purchased a book or a tool, but I had been looking at the Glacier Peak line since it was introduced last year. I got the 10" squares and a yard of one of the snowflake fabrics. I guess it could have been worse... and after all, it was a gift!
