I don't know if I could ever use enough of my accumulation to dent it very much at this point, especially since fabric just kind of arrives from various sources unbidden now. It does make the whole enterprise into a much less expensive hobby, though, is the good thing.Michael5000https://www.blogger.com/profile/10148584819327475239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1498867393910527216.post-86846050947459560832009-08-27T11:02:39.028-05:002009-08-27T11:02:39.028-05:00You are so good. I really should use my "old...You are so good. I really should use my "older" stash more. I keep saying that need to make a scrap quilt with all that fabric and then all that fabric I am not so fond of anymore will probably become a quilt that I really like.

I ended up with a small pile and then when I looked at the pile, I decided that they would actually all work together so now they are designated as fabrics for service quilts or painting. When I came out, Wes says to me, "I knew you couldn't throw any of that fabric out!" It was really amazing how much I liked what I had and just needed to get busy and sew it. Like Jessica, I have a fear of cutting into the "good" fabric but not any more! It's all getting used. And, that is very freeing too.<br /><br />So Good Luck!Debra Dixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14959081275116311853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1498867393910527216.post-64659793218609683132009-08-26T14:44:24.338-05:002009-08-26T14:44:24.338-05:00i know, i know!! as soon as you pull the uglies ...i know, i know!! as soon as you pull the uglies out of the bunch and pile them together, you get the urge to use them! I'm the same way. I end up wasting time making things that aren't cute and I don't want displayed in my home. So, my new resolution is "Don't use fabric you don't love." that way even my test blocks will be pretty and I can get over my fear of cutting into yardage. <br />oh, and congrats on your minimal fabric purchases this year! <br /><br />btw, the blue/red block in the bottom row-- that blue doesn't look ugly from the picture..Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124055364435672026noreply@blogger.com
