I used less than a yard this week making my 6 inch blocks. I have made 11 of the Civil War Diary Quilt blocks. I like the project so far. My fabric total stays at one full tote.
I went to the quilt shop today but didn't buy any fabrics! I did buy some thread and batting. I would like to get another top basted this week.
Here are the two blocks I made Saturday.

Sounds like you're doing good at resisting the urge to buy.
Knowing that you'll have to "fess up" makes it easier to resist, doesn't it?
I like your blocks. Very cute!
Isn't it amazing that for the amount of work it takes to make a small block they don't use up more fabric?
Hi Vicki
Thank you for the comment you left on my NIF blog. I couldn't reply to your message as you have no email address visible.
Just wanted to let you know that I'm making my foundation papers by tracing the pattern from the book onto tracing paper.
Hope this helps

It's so hard to go into a quilt store and not buy fabric. I'm finding that it's best to buy fabric for a quilt all at once. Less waste, less to store and the fabric gets used!
