I'm so in! Tho I've been doing this for months now. If I have bought any fabric it's been a FQ but that's it. All Christmas gifts will come out of my stash including backing.

Got mine organized a couple weeks ago and now I'm working at using up some of my stash. I am going to make one small quilt for my son's girlfriend -- she's from Kansas and I found one with sunflowers that I know that she'll like. Other than that, I haven't formulated any Christmas gifts.
Oh I am making a Christmas tree skirt for my niece -- all from my stash.
And I have a baby quilt to make -- so far, all from stash!

Yes!! Thanks for the encouragement! I am working on organizing my whole house and getting rid of stuff! I know I have at least 5 quilts worth of fabric to put together. I shouldn't need any more fabric for those. I suspect there are even more than that waiting in my stash. We shall overcome - collecting fabric and not getting enough quilts done with what we have. Keep up the cheering section.

I invited my DGD to come and use any of my stash. She is a
quilter too. She found some to use.
We, also, are making things from it to donate to a craft booth to raise money for a neighbor that has huge medical, prescription,and hospital bills to pay.
Christmas gifts are being made from it also.
I see so much I would like to buy but keep telling myself I must use as much stash as I can, only buy to complete
projects if I can't find all from stash!!!!!!
I must remind myself often.

Oh I seriously need in on this! I have been in a buying frenzy the last 3 or 4 months! I got to stop!!!!!!! This should do it! I am making trivets for Christmas! I hope everyone likes them! I also have a wall hangin card holder to make, a quilt for my boss (possibly). We will see what I get done, but at least this is a start!
