I have done the same thing many times! I prefer to finish the bolt especially if I really like the fabric. I can't tell you how many times I've been asked to make a quilt for charity or for a new baby at church and I didn't have to go to the store for anything! I could just take from my stash! My DH really appreciates this since I can't seem to leave the store with only what I came for! Have fun with the addiction!
