I don't know about you, but if my hubby wanted "our" quilt, I would have ordered the fabric immediately...the pledge only applies to other purchases. 4 years ago, the doctor walked into my husband's room and said he would have to operate and only had less than 50% of making it. If he did, could suffer severe permanent damage. Long story short, he is still with me and has had some good times since then. He has never been the same, but has developed a declining "normal". We never know when we will be faced with such circumstances. Enjoy every day and every experience, we are not promised the next ones. Not to be morbid, just to say, seize the opportunity and buy your fabrics for "our" quilt. Don't feel guilty, this is different.
