that means a shopping trip in search of something for that quilt.
which can lead to leaving with more impulse purchases.
i'm getting better, though.
i now consider a trip a success if i walk out either only with what i needed that day for a specific project, or empty handed.
my goal this year is to shop my stash exclusively.
wish me luck. LOL
Maybe we should wish you self-control instead. Luck doesn't have much to do with it, does it?
Anyway, I think those of us that have fabric and can walk in a fabric store to buy more should be grateful for our problem--it means that 1. we have health to go shopping 2. money with which to buy fabric (or an internet connection and money to pay for it.).
