That's true! We certainly are becoming more selective! I am starting to put my fabrics into 'kits' with the pattern so that I remember why I bought it in the first place.... only for quilts that I absolutely love and have to make!

I am also piecing backs rather than using big yardage, I like it better and it used up some of the left overs which I might not use in another project.

I was going through my scrap boxes yesterday and wondered why I keep those little tiny pieces when I have so much yardage. I think I will make a scrap quilt kit or two and then give away the scraps. I rarely use up the scraps anyway! The collection just keeps growing and growing.
