    Default Fabric Moratorium Crash and Burn

    Sorry folks, I'm out! Just took advantage of the last day special low shipping at 1,000 Bolts a few minutes ago and placed a whopper order. Haven't purchased any fabric since early November. Not a long time but an eternity for me. Do I have actual plans for any of the fabrics - heck no! The new fabric can make friends with my enormously overgrown existing stash. So I'll enjoy the new fabrics, play around with some colors, think of spring and let my credit card cool down. Everyone have a good weekend.

    Congratulations! Waiting to buy since November is remarkable. I don't have that kind of self-control.

    LOL, well you gave it a good try, so far I am doing good with my resolution to ONLY buy what I need for a project....have a new grandbaby coming in May so I have been buying to match things I already had in my stash.

    I think there is a major "pile up" because of their shipping promotion. My credit card nearly overheated earlier this week at the same site... .So its off the road for a while . I got my box of goodies yesterday...

    This just blows me away. I have not purchased fabric for probably 5 years and I don't have much of a stash at all. Mostly fat quarters, but make do with what I have and am thankful for that. Just cannot afford it. SS is not what it should be, just not enough money to purchase anything fun. So, have an awesome time with what you get and have fun with it. You are a very lucky lady.
