I had to drop off a broken scant 1/4" foot at the lqs today. And I felt I was short some fabric for the next star flower quilt with sashing so I talked to the lady at the counter. We are becoming pretty good friends. She mentioned that if I put the two fabrics that I was planning on next to one another i'd have a very busy quilt. So we rearranged the fabrics so I didn't have to buy as much. Does that count as a negative purchase?...just saying...
