We are two months into our fabric moratorium and it would be great to hear from everyone to find out how you are getting on.
Last months progress was fantastic - everyone is doing so well. I’m really proud of you all. There were a few small slips - but nothing major :)
What have you been working on? What have you (or have not) purchased? If you have used a variant of the original rules, please share with us your guidelines and your progress.

January’s updates can be found here:

The original rules/guidelines are:
* no fabric purchases to start a new quilt top (till 1 November 2011)
“Allowed” purchases include any item required to finish an existing project (either WIP or UFO), including but not limited to:
* batting
* backing or binding fabric
* fabric (if nothing in your stash will work)
* thread or notions
* fabric purchased on a plan prior to 1 December 2010 (e.g. block of the month)
Some people have chosen a variation of the rules/guidelines to suit their circumstances, e.g. a 3 month moratorium, or commitment to use 1 fabric from their stash each month.
Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you all and seeing your work.
Cheers
