Just a tip: I ran to Michaels with my 40% off coupon and bought Hobbs Heirloom cotton batting (queen size) for $14.99 less the coupon. Then I ran to Hobby Lobby for (just ONE ITTY BITTY YARD OF FABRIC to line my apron I'm making this weekend) and their Hobbs Heirloom cotton batting, same size was $19.99! That's quite a bit difference when you're talking 25% difference! Okay...back on the bandwagon for now! Plus...(I say this as I'm giving myself a pat on the back) I'm skipping the Central Oklahoma Quilt Shop Hop that started today! I seriously do not need the temptation so I'm staying home and sewing!

I think I have read that the promise not to buy anything doesnt apply to things you need to finish a WIP or UFO... :)
