Default If you don't intend to buy more fabric but you must...

How much do you buy when you have no idea what to do with it?

Scenario:
Walks into fabric store with a swatch of fabric to buy two contrasting fabrics. Gets lucky and finds 3. Ready to buy. Casually scans fabrics while walking to counter and spots a new fabric line. Goose bumps appear. Feet suddenly glue themselves to the floor. Thoughts wrestle between "just keep going...just keep going" and "...!" Critic pipes in: But for what? Why? You haven't even been sewing that much lately. Get a grip girl. Just go.

She strengthens her resolve and gets halfway to counter. But the fabric is calling her. Haunting her. So she goes back and finds herself touching it, taking out her favorite bolt, then the next one, the next one...

So ... how much of each should she buy?

(just in case, you know, this happens again...)
