Perfect fabric shopping experience!
A friend gave me a $20 gift card to a local fabric store and also a $25 VISA gift card. So off to the fabric store I went.
There was a sale on, and I browsed the aisles. I was mostly interested in getting some solids in just the right shades of yellow and gray. I took a couple of bolts of yellow around the store, matched them up to other fabrics I liked, and settled on the perfect yellow. I couldn't find any light gray, only dark, so I moved on to patterns. I found two fabrics on the sale table that spoke to me. As I worked my way up to the cutting table, I found the perfect gray placed in a section of red/gray/black fabrics.
I ordered just enough to use all of my credit plus $1.31, which I dished out in change from my wallet. By the time I left the store, I couldn't even tell what time of day it was. It felt like I'd been away for hours; it was a great feeling.
I love shopping for fabric!
