You know you are a quilter when....
I'm working on a quilt that has multicolor features. I only need about a 2x6 piece of fabric for each one. The only color I'm missing is a solid burnt orange. I've been through my stash and my scrap tubs... nary a piece to be found. This was a few days ago. This is where the weird thought entered my head... I do have a blouse in my closet that is the right color... should I cut that up for that piece??? Oh, my goodness... that's crazy! Especially since our quilt show is today [and tomorrow] and I can dive into the scrap fabric pool to try to find that right color!
Has anyone else been tempted to use something other than your 'proper' stash to get that piece of the right color?
