    If I get this job I interviewed for I will most definitely be on a budget. I am not going to be spend crazy like I was. The last 9 months has taught me a lesson.

    I don't have a quilting budget. We have cut back significantly in buying stuff that we don't need at this moment. I will go and buy needles, batting or thread if I need it but stay out of the store otherwise b/c I don't want to be tempted. I don't have much of a stash but am trying to work with what I have and when I have the projects done that I am working on I will consider buying for a specific project.

    I dont have a budget and have been enjoying the $A and US$ exchange rates at present! Next year I am not buying anything unless the project is made with 95% of what's in my stash already!

    First I didn't have a spending budget and every time I spend some money and it wasn't for my children or DH I felt quilty about spending this money all for myself.

    DH then says to me that I have to reserve some pocketmoney of my own. He doesn't really care how much I spend. So now I put myself on a budget about 20 Euro's each month. That's about 28 dollars.

    How much (on average) does a yard of fabric cost there? (In Euros?)

    Specifically, cotton quilting type fabric? (I forgot for a moment that there are other kinds of fabric :?)

    And if you know, also in USA dollars?

    I don't know about euros but A$28 is a metre of fabric (just over a yard) and I can buy a yard for US$8 at online fabric stores paying about A$10.
