Sometimes these men really surprise us! Mine gets upset if we make a trip to a far away quilt shop or fabric store and I don't come out with a bag - so guess what I "have to buy" - more fabric!!!!! He says he won't take me to anymore FART - "Fabric Acquisition Road Trips" if I don't buy something!!!! No sense in wasting the gas - he says. So, I make sure that there is something that I "need" to buy.
