    Sewing With Nancy did a few shows on that book with Darlene. Could you have seen it there?

    I was recently looking for a quilt book I had for a friend to borrow. I found four books that were duplicates and I don't remember buying the first ones or why. I really need to reign myself in when it comes to quilt stuff shopping. But is sure is fun.
    I love my life!

    I just finished cleaning and organizing my sewing room and sadly found more than one duplicate of a few items! And I've done just what you have. I know there is some reason I bought the book or magazine but later I don't always remember what the reason was. Hopefully it will come to you.

    I'm with laughing quilter. I can't say how many times I've gone home with a book or magazine, just to discover that I already have it.

    Well that's a pretty tacky thing to say. None of her bee's wax.

    .....And dont think I have not done this before! Just sold at a friends garage sale 5 duplicate templates..........someone really got a bargain.......yes, this book has 30-40s type fabrics.....but I do not remember seeing that episode of NN....but now that I have seen it....hm that tall triangle looks interesting....I wonder if Joanns has it....could use a coupon on it.......will put that down on my list........more trouble!!!!!!!
    I already tried one of the blocks with my newly purchased sizzix big shot and a tri-rec style die......same one on the pic with Darlene and Nancy.......cute, and comes out good with those engineered corners the dies all have..........I really have to curtail like Onebyone said.....BUT I dont have lots of money, just a short memory!!!!!!!where are my post-its!!!!

    How about posting your duplicate quilting items here on the For Sale Forum. The newbies could get things they normally wouldn't and you could make a little of your money back. I'm always looking at that site. Just a thought.
