Stash-Busting!
Over at Cation Designs there is this wonderful sew-along happening called the Stashbusting Sewalong. The goal is to reduce the size of our sewing stashes, which mine is in desperate need of. It's a bit ridiculous how much fabric I have.
So, here is my pledge: I, Rachel,commit to using 12 pieces of stash fabric in 2013. For this year, I will only buy necessary fabric for any historical costuming, but it will be used right away and only bought on an as needed basis after the project has been completely planned out and I check my stash first to make sure that I don't already have something that would work.
I'm pretty sure I will be able to do more than that, but I want to keep it reasonable at one project a month.
I want to try and avoid buying fabric entirely, but there are certain historical projects I have planned where that just can't be done. I am going to do my best to make sure that I always check my stash before buying anything for a historical project. I'm not including notions or patterns with this, but I am going to keep any buying of patterns and notions to an as needed basis.
