Oh can we overlook the fact I went yesterday and spent$ for sale fabric? One of LQS had FQ's for $1.00 and I couldn't resisit:) I also purchased Christmas fabric, almost all of it for placemats for next year's craft fairs.
After re reading the pledge, I cannot make the pledge, would love to hang out and post pics using my stash if that is OK?

I think my bank account may grow a bit this year.

Exactly just got home from buying 1.99 a yard quilt shop fabric...too fun...I go 1st to my stash and usually have to add to it because I am picky about it all coordinating....I feel everyone needs to have a healthy addiction right?

Hey Daisey - Cool row by row. Seems I've seen some of that quilt somewhere < big grin> Looks great all together. Mine has turned into a UFO unfortunately so it is good for me to stay on No-buy.
