My DH put me on fabric restriction last fall. no more fabric until I completed the 7 tops that were all WIPs, UNLESS it was needed to finish the project! I just love the fine print. It did work though and I was able to get them all done and given away. The heart of your promise was not to buy fabric for NEW projects, right? So you really didn't break the unspoken parts. Well, it sounds good to me anyway LOL

I agree with AngieS. If I made that promise, and had already finished the other wips that I had sufficient supplies for....then I would have bought fabric for the backing of that one last. If they were all done you would not have broken your promise. However, if you could have finished any one of them without buying more fabric, you would have broken your promise....techinically. But, knowing it is just a private joke it doesn't really matter, just gave all a good laugh.
