I got my black fabric for the background and of course my DH had to go to the mailbox today. He saw the box from Connecting Threads and said"Don't tell me you bought more fabric." I told him that it was just an excange and so it didn't count as more fabric. I'm now drooling over the idea of a purple background, but I am going to stick with the black fabric or my DH may have me committed. He is really great considering I have fabric in every nook & cranny.
