I forgot to put digital patterns in that list! One independent company does a Feature Friday where a pattern that is usually $12 is available for $5 for 24 hours. It seems so innocent, but I already have an array of every sort of top/trousers/skirts/dresses/coats, only two of which I've got round to printing and cutting out some fabric (still nothing actually made up).
I agree with you about having so many books, stationary, craft materials etc. I tend to buy yarn and fabric in the sales, I rarely buy anything full price at other times of the year, but I'm not keeping up with all the stuff I already have! I want to go through my books and sort out which ones I want to keep and which ones can go.
It sounds like you are making fabulous progress with using the things you already have and eliminating the stuff you no longer need.
Wow, you're getting it together with those EDS tokens! It's true, there are often some available for a very good price.
Thank you for joining in 😍
Yeah that's what I was doing, like, "ooh I like this one, and it's a good price" and stocking up, without any particular project in mind, usually. So I've been using what I had. I made a ton of cat mats - some for my cats, some for friends' cats, some for shelter cats - as a way to use up some yarn, especially since it's such a good way to use up leftovers and acrylics (because you want them to be easy care and machine washable).
That's a good idea. I need to get braver at bringing together bits and pieces of leftovers to create something. It's a winter project, I can feel it 😁
A good sit down on a chilly day with a warm drink and a pair of needles and yarn project!
