I once found a lovely white cotton with such a soft, delicious hand. It had a beautiful woven design in it. I stood there and drooled over it for several minutes. Looked at the label and it was $32/yd. Italian cotton. I drooled and pet it for several more minutes, wondering if I could justify buying it if I made it into a dress shirt for my husband. Finally decided not to, and have regretted it ever since. I should have at least bought a quarter yard for a couple of hankies.
