Elly66 you are barely scraping by on the "it gave me great joy" and "I needed a pick-me-up" defense. But you are already balanced out by the "doing something good for someone in a wheel chair" - that ALWAYS gets a pass.

Started and finished in less than a month and 100% from stash, including backing and batting.

The month of January has passed without any purchases for quilting. That's a first for me.

That is very pretty. I may have to buy some fruit fabric to go with a round robin. I'm not sure that my stash will yield what I need, but then again, it might. Wish me luck.

I can't believe I made it a entire month without a fabric purchase. That has never happened before ... I am hoping I can go another.... I feel good that I just deleted all of the tempting e- mails, and did not surf for fabrics too pretty to resist.

I fell off but like I knew I would. I bought several yards of various blacks since I had none so as soon as they arrive, I will share pictures with you all. But I am going for no purchases at all for February and beyond. Everyone is doing very well with staying on the wagon.

Sunrise, I used the Sophie Car Seat pattern from Moda Bakeshop and just made it larger. It was actually a very easy quilt to put together. http://www.modabakeshop.com/2012/02/...eat-quilt.html
I think my HSTs finished at 4 inches but you can adapt the pattern to work with any size.

I'm doing just fine in this area. I have been tempted by some fabric sites but am holding firm. Of course, it helps that I have no time and no patience to sew right now. But, after midJune, I'll be diving into my stash! I hope! And I know I'll be ready by then...
Just wanted to add that all the projects are lovely!

I have been doing pretty well so far. I do find that while I have tons of fabric I lack blenders. I had to buy a yard of white on white last week. I am making a snowman quilt and needed more white. I also bought background fabric for my DD birthday present. I really needs to be all one color and I don't have any pieces of fabric that large. The rest of the quilt will be somewhat scrappy from my stash.
