Not that awful movie with the same name -- this purge, dreamed up by Rachel at Stitched in Color, which involves fabric and going through your stash and finding wonderful things to do with it.
I'm hopping on this bandwagon late, but better late than never and there's a lot of inspiration to be found over at her site.

I had to buy more yarn for Squidpocalypse and found out that hard way that Red Heart with Love is substatially more expensive than Red Heart Super Saver, which is what I thought I was buying when I grabbed the skein I needed for the inner side of the tentacles. And of course Walmart doesn't carry that color a couple of months later, so I wound up paying even more for the two additional skeins that I needed.

Yesterday I discovered that the "love" yarn is now 6 oz instead of 7 oz. Thanks Walmart, grrrrr!
