My experience in life has been if I see something I like I'd better buy it then because it will be gone if I leave and come back later. Think that is why I buy patterns with no immediate plans for them. Recently took inventory of my pattern stash including books and have reached the conclusion I'd have to live to be around 180 to make them all so no more for me. Why didn't I realize earlier that I could use a single pattern that I dearly love and make it in a gozillion different color combinations and have as many different looks! DUH!!!
