I did that when I was in Plano, Texas. I went to a thrift store and bought a suitcase. When it came time to check my luggage of course I checked all my clothing and carried on the fabric. The suitcase was full of batiks from
www.fabricfanatics. I was overwhelmed when I walked in the door, bought some fabrics and went back the next day after a good nights sleep I was ready to shop.
