I've enjoyed reading everyone's trials and triumphs. I have one of both myself. When I joined this challenge, I said I would be purchasing some specific fabric from Marshall's Dry Goods. I purchased exactly what I had intended even though there was a new line I really wanted (I have trouble passing up quilt shop quality for $1.95 a yard -- but I did!).
My trial was I'm participating in a block swap that uses certain colours. I had three in my stash but needed to buy the fourth -- 1-1/2 yards. Thousands of Bolts had what I needed, but their shipping is the same up to 6 yards. <sigh> So I caved and purchased 2 yards of a fabric I fell in love with that I hadn't planned. But I'm proud of myself that I only purchased 2 yards extra instead of the 4 I normally would have. So can that be treated as a partial fail?
