What are your criteria for buying fabric when on vacation?
I'm leaving Sunday to go to Ohio for a week. I got a fabulous list from one of the ladies here of stores to check out. (I saw Miller Dry Goods on the list and almost swooned!) We are also going to the Christmas store in Michigan and will be looking for stores on the way there. My question is, when you go on vacation, what criteria do you use for buying fabric? Great prices? Something you've not seen before? a group of fabrics that go together? I have a ginormous quilt store about 1/2 hour from me, and their prices are really good. So, I'm thinking, I'll just go and "look" at all the stores, take pictures (if okay with them) for ideas and maybe get a souvenir. Unless I see a really good sale, or I see something that is totally regional, or I see something I've not seen at my LQS, or I like the feel of it, or I like the color of it, or it jumps off the shelf and screams "buy me". What the heck, I'll just pack and empty suitcase to take with me!
