Girls, if you want to see a couple of UFO's that are now FO's, see my blog. There's a t-shirt quilt and a sweater. I am blocking the sweater today. Took me 3 hours to tuck in all of the yarn ends last night! I've already started another Christmas project from stashed yarn. This is fun and catching!

Jami-The quilt and sweater are both beautiful!
I just threw out Michaels and Hobby Lobby coupons that were still good. I'm determined to make it to 30 days!

I'm back! I've been camping and out of the MJ loop for a few days. I am still using my stash and haven't been to a craft store in a month! That is a record for me. It's funny - you never even think about how many times you do something until you stop doing it! I was at A.C> Moore at least once a week! They probably think I moved or something...lol I am saving money though, and that's a plus!

Kim (TabithaLenox) - I think you made your 30, too. You only bought what you needed for projects - you weren't stash building. Email me your addy and I'll send you a chip, too!

I've been doing really good on my stash! and UFO's....but putting those on hold a TEENY bit to get the Christmas gifts done - I had bought 4 panels of a Log Cabin Santa last year for like FIFTY CENTS - making my sister and 2 sister in laws and myself each a Santa - almost have one finished - will post a pic when I'm done with it. But to embellish them, I'm using all kinds of beads, buttons, glitter, decorative thread from my stash!! I'm so proud! And I have a ton of Christmas fabric I bought on clearance over the last 3 years(yea you can imagine how much I have), so I'm making them all table runners. And I have enough black and red fabric to make my dad a gym bag he's been wanting. I'll hardly spend any money this year!!
Man, we're doing GOOD!!!

I made it a whole month without buying any fabric! I really wasn't sure I could do it. I've used up part of the fabric stash making 15 churn dash quilt blocks for an exchange and finished six swiffer sweaters with part of the yarn stash. Today I used a teeny amount of fabric making an ATC.

Ok girls, I'm going to deliberately break my fast. I know, GASP!!! Anyway, it's for a good cause, and I'm using what I'm purchasing. See my post about the Special Olympics scarves, then you'll understand.
Thanks for your support!

Did you like the balloon confetti inside the bubble on the back? I got those from a barter, and I absolutely LOVE them! I knew you'd enjoy it too.

Kim and Judith - congrats on making your 30 days. If you would like your special, homemade craft-fasting, stashaholic chip, please email me your addresses.
Jami - I think you've really come a long way with all those UFOs being finished... Are you going to make it to 30 days? (I have a hunch you will...)

Ann, I don't think it counts if you buy supplies that you are using for a specific project such as the scarves because they are particular colors! I think I have made it 30 days! When did we start?
