I don't hide my fabric purchases anymore since I generally pay with my debit card and my DH sees the $ amounts anyway. But I am currently hiding new curtains in my trunk. Our bedroom has 6 large windows and since the windows are old it's a bit cold sometimes. I talked him into letting me purchase thermal lining and making my own liners. But after making 2 of them I didn't like the way they hung. So I was out yesterday walking in the mall (I never, ever go there anymore) and found beautiful already lined curtains at a deep discount $13 a panel 43 x 84. The thermal lining I purchased was about that price and this way I don't have to do any sewing--just hang them up while he's out and he will never know. Oh, I didn't use my debit card this time but my secret stash money I generally save for mad money. I figured it was worth giving up a little fabric shopping this time.
