I think I will go on a bit of a fabric diet for the next few months.leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508863734352087214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31805894.post-35428215902992175802011-01-05T13:06:05.098-06:002011-01-05T13:06:05.098-06:00that is AWESOME that you used more than you bought...that is AWESOME that you used more than you bought last year. way to go!!! i started tracking my usage last year, but got bogged down somewhere around summer. i tracked that i used 60+ yards, but i know it was WAY more than that. i'm totally with you, though. i want to use my fabric before i don't love it anymore.Amanda Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06311818385469850186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31805894.post-87270002135291938092011-01-03T10:07:33.350-06:002011-01-03T10:07:33.350-06:00I'm impressed!

I agree that it's good to use things before you don't like them anymore, I'm starting to realize that myself.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00227138410417031980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31805894.post-33879662407624737382011-01-01T20:00:08.904-06:002011-01-01T20:00:08.904-06:00Great job Angela!

I like to put things I like on a wish list and then go back to it a day or two later to see if it is something I really love or have a project for. It seems to help me not to make impulsive purchases.

Well done on keeping track, it must of been an interesting excersise for you, and I must say I'm tempted to the same this year, we'll see though lol!<br />But this, "I really want to USE my fabric before I no longer love it." really hits home with me, and I'm sure would resonate with most of us fabric lovers!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18403766060836013971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31805894.post-60053194680865759392011-01-01T17:27:36.081-06:002011-01-01T17:27:36.081-06:00Congrats Angela!

I feel like I've been pretty good lately though, making things with what I have and not "browsing" too much, or if so, not hitting the BUY button, as you say. Great job. Here's to another successful year!Mary Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13168604447044465893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31805894.post-28991708665661202802011-01-01T13:33:10.555-06:002011-01-01T13:33:10.555-06:00I might have to do that this year.

Perhaps I shall start my spreadsheet right now.<br /><br />Do I have to count the things I bought two days ago? ;-)<br /><br />A question for you - how strict are you on what you count? Do you count scraps from the scrap bin? Do you differentiate "scraps" from "stash?" I mean, obviously this is all personal in how you want to keep track, but I'm just curious.<br /><br />Happy New Year!Liz Jimenezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113299527583609272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31805894.post-22128595061729479992011-01-01T13:17:43.992-06:002011-01-01T13:17:43.992-06:00you have made such great things this year with all...you have made such great things this year with all that awesome fabric.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11183716038434262407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31805894.post-87237970995210288402011-01-01T12:47:49.093-06:002011-01-01T12:47:49.093-06:00It is good to keep a spreadsheet.

You did really good only purchasing twice in the 2nd half of the year and using 120 yards total. Bravo!

I'd seen a sample first bz I'm not that brave to buy before I see and touch it! I'll be blogging how I'm using it this year. I'm loving it. You're more organized than me to keep track of your stash yardage. I just use it up until the tote is empty, lol! I have no idea of the yardage. Have a great year!<br />Cindyonlymeherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08880378084448908090noreply@blogger.com
