Oh, I don't know. In my eyes this looks like a lot of control and feeling great (as you do I am sure) about helping out their local economy. If I had gone to all those shops my table would be about a foot or so high all around with stacks of good stuff. I am terrible when it comes to visiting quilting shops! Stacks would be higher if it was all bought on clearance. I just like and love it all.
Enjoy your wonderful purchases! I see a lot of projects in there I wouldn't mind doing myself.
