Mom had already donated them to Good Will before I realized I wanted them. Afterwards I came across and bought an old quilting book on the subject of using ties to make some nice quilted items .

That is my "fabric" regret.

Do you have one?
Not a fabric regret but I regret getting rid of my father's boots. He had several pair of really nice (western or cowboy) boots and I wish I'd kept at least a pair or two to just display in my house.
