If it's in your budget give yourself a Christmas present and have fun buying fabric I always feel so good when I can buy fabric for less than 20% off. Merry Christmas.

I agree with those that told you to go for it..especially with the prices for fabric so high in Canada. Consider it a gift to yourself!

Fast forward a few years to where you have actually used it all as planned. Be honest!

I'd look at some of the fixtures also if they are selling them. Sometimes you can pick up great storage or cutting pieces....anyway, go for it!

OMG, I would probably be there every day. My LQS has a big SuperBowl sale every year and knowning I don't need anything I can't resist the temptation to go. I have more fat quarters than I will ever need so this year I'm going to try and stay away from the fat quarters. If you empty a bolt it's an extra 25% off and most of them have less than 4 yards on them and are really good buys so those are the ones I will look for this year. I have been testing my self to see if I can not buy anything and so far I haven't. So I will save up for that sale. Go got it and stop buying another time. Fabric seems to keep going up anyway so while it on sale you must buy.

OK - I haven't read through all of the posts - but I am going to gues that nobody has been a big help to you. Not me either! I would especially look for yardage for backing in colors that I know I am going to be making a quilt in. One of our shops has a huge end of year sale and that is what I normally look for - something that would make a good back and possibly even borders for a quilt. I have to say that I have been pretty successful in using those or selling to one of my buddies for a backing. With fabric going up so high I say with 75% off get what you can afford and like.

Gee if it were closer, I think a bus load of us would be heading there.75% is as good as it gets for we quilters up here in Canada. Sounds like you can't afford not to shop, lol.
