Fabriholics Anonymous - update

January Update

FabAnon

OK it's time to see how the first month is going.
Not too bad I think.

I am allowed to buy book, patterns, notions etc. 
Here are my little indulgences for the last two weeks.


I destashed a LOT of stuff yesterday on Instagram in the
#greataussiedestash
and feel very pleased that I was able to let stuff go to new homes
where I am sure it will be loved and well played with :o)

But, I did buy................

  
Yardage of these but that's allowed as they are backing
 to finish 2 quilts  :)

I also purchased these and they are "my exception to the rule" as they are Bonnie and Camille.

  

There was also this purchase which is also OK as they are for my "Lucy Boston"
oh the fussy cutting potential :o)  
 

that was not an exception to the rule was these .... 

I may have also taken part in last weeks #greatusdestash and look what I got ......


Hello pretty "Ruby FQ Bundle"  If this is not heaven in fabric then I don't know what is :o)
So looking forward to its arrival so it can take pride of place in my "little" Bonnie and Camille Stash.

OK so rounding up, yes a few purchases but only one fell outside of my guidelines.
Not a bad month. Now time to stalk the postie .......

hugs Sharon

  6. OMG! What fantastic purchases. If you de-stashed then I think stocking up on those prizes is very much allowed.

  9. I too bought patterns and speciality rulers. Not that I really needed patterns but I fell in love with some Jen Kingwell patterns.

  10. Of course there have to be exceptions to the rule. And they are lovely exceptions, too.
