I've got enough fabric here in my closets to last a lifetime for several folks and I just keep buying more and more. I'm pretty well set if it goes too high. But, what is the old saying.....What goes up.... must come down! And wherever there's a will ....there's a way!

Of course! I don't stop eating because the cost of food goes up :roll: :lol:

This is where I am. I sometimes bought fabric because it was "cute". Now, there will be a definite plan.

i've been collecting fabric for my retirement so now is the time.
Although i keep working a few days so I can buy more fabric. I am prepared for a cut back if need be.
