My Pledge for April

I will buy no fabric for the entire month of April.


No yardage, no fat quarters, no remnants.  None.


It is going to be a very long month…


Do you want to take this pledge to?  Do you need to take this pledge even if you don’t ‘want’ too?  Add this button to your sidebar to help you stay strong and resist the fabric temptation bug.

    I love your pledge! I just refused to go to the fabric store, myself. I have established a fabric "library" from which to choose. So much to do...so little time.

    Gosh you and your readers are brave... I too couldn't take the pledge - more so my husband - he is so into making doll clothes and we only shop clearance and sales and so we don't get fabrics on a drop dime just when we can find it cheap.... OK so I want or hope to read about your withdrawals for this brave pledge of yours... YOU AMAZE ME....

    I am already in withdrawals, LOL! I just have to focus on getting done the projects I have lined out already. No need for more fabric... no need... no need, just lots of wanting, LOL!

    Haha I need this one something fierce! I don't think I can do it though, that's like promising not to walk for a month. =) Good luck!

    Technically I could do this....considering all my fabric is purchased as second hand clothing (to be taken apart later).

    Hmmm...good luck in your pledge. My pledge for the past year has been to only buy to finish. Today is was 2/3-yard for a binding. I don't feel too bad about that. I will cheer you on, though.

Add a ‘click-able’ signature to comments you make.

While blog hopping recently, I came across this fantastic tip listed on Be Our Best .  Jill has compiled her Top 10 Blogging Tips in one place to help others out there in blogland.  Most of them I had heard of before.  But she had one on her list that I have only seen a couple times in practice, and have not heard a how-to do it before. Number 6: Add a clickable signature to your comments. If you add the following text to the bottom of the comments you leave for other bloggers, whatever text you insert for “Your Text Here” will be clickable.  You have to switch out “{“ and “}” with “<” and “>” then it will work.  Remember to also change the “Your Blog Address” part, LOL! {a href=http://www.YourBlogAddress.com/ }YOUR TEXT HERE {/a} Bonus Tip ~ I use Notepad to store all the html codes I use on a regular basis {the direct link code for my signature image, color codes, etc.}.  I added the above code to my Notepad page, edited it with my informat...

Pretty in Pink and Some Sparkles too!

A hat for my oldest in ballet pink (red heart yarn she picked) with some silver beads.  No pattern, and ended up running elastic thread through a couple rows to make it more secure on her head for now, until she grows into it some more. Matches a shoulder shrug knitted for her during her year of ballet lessons.
