Default I caved and bought fabric (again)!!

I just couldn't help it. They emailed me again and again. I looked again and again. The sale was too good to pass up. There was a coupon for an additional 20% off of clearance. Free shipping at $35. There was a piece of fabric that I was looking at online a few months ago that sold out at another site and they had it!! I filled my cart and I left the page (numerous times). An urgent email came stating today was the last day for the sale - 7 yards of fabric for just over $32 dollars after my coupon. I caved in and completed the checkout process. My fabric should be here by the end of the week!! I can't wait!

Fabric.com - sale ends today at midnight (09/30).

I have a sickness, I know (hangs head down in shame, well kinda).

Repeat after me: My name is jsutducky and I am powerless over fabric ... and notions ... and thread ...

We all have it to a certain degree - now I have to check them out to see if they have the fabrics that I am looking for but didn't find on the CT Shop Hop last weekend! SIGH!

too much fabric whats that? ha i know the mail lady and ups man by name we see them so much. our old ups man use to ask what are you up to now. at lest my husband does not question all my fabric. but he knows not to. i don't question his cameras, he doesn't question my fabric "needs". but then we do every thing together. he even helps me in making soap.

I know I do not need any more fabric but I saw a question on here last week about buying kits and someone mentioned Connecting Threads kits always have extra. So I went to CT and bought a kit on clearence, matching backing, and some of the matching fabric to make a pillow sham. At least my husband will not make a fuss. He is a woodworker and still buys wood even though he has lots in storage.

Hmmm, need to go look at fabric.com ...

7 yds of fabric in the UK could cost you about £110+. Your fabric is so cheap compared to the UK.

quiltingloulou - what is the US dollar amount? I love the British Antiques Roadshow, but they announce the prices in Euros and I never know what it costs. Anyhow, recently the salesclerks at the fabric stores have been telling me that "I'm giving them job security". I'm going to have to go cold turkey and quit buying fabric and die cuts coz I have to pay off the new machine I just got! It's gonna hurt.
