Default Can't believe I said that!!

Dear Canadian cousin coming to town for her bi-annual visit on Monday. We have all our Fabric Depot coupons ready to go!!

Discussing what she was going to look for, her future projects, etc and I blurted out "I don't really need any fabrics."

Dead silence. I feel like I've been kicked out of the family!! How many times have you heard anybody say that?? But I have lots of projects that I'm enjoying now. (May look at the new Laurel Burch horse fabric though.)

My husband gave me a look the other day because I didn't need anything from JoAnn's.

Then he asked if I was sick...lol

Reminds me of a conversation I had with DH when we were attending a quilt show recently. As we came upon a large (and gorgeous) display of fabric he asked me if I "needed" any fabric. I quickly reminded him that "need" had nothing to do with it and a fellow quilt show attendee chimed in to back up my statement. LOL

I'll check in on Tuesday and let you know what I didn't buy! After all this is my annual present from my DC!

Need and want are two very different things!

I say it -- and I mean it -- but I can't stick to it when I see fabric that I'd love to have, so I "try" to stay out of the vicinity of any fabric except my own! It also helps that I'm on a limited income right now!
