Imagine my surprise when I learned I have won a $350 shopping spree ($50 gift certificate from 7 different shops) :thumbup: I was speechless- which anyone knows me wold find miraculous :roll: I've never won anything - let alone something so wonderful...once I come back down to earth the question is - how to carefully plan what I need/want, etc.......
so, my question is...how would you spend it?

I think I would spend it on background fabric and backing. I have so much stash that when I go to quilt I always have to get the background and backing..Have fun!

Congradulations!! I think I would also go for background fabrics-at least 8 yards of each-plus a few books I have been drooling over-and if they carried it, the line called "Stonehenge" from Northcott-I would spend hundreds just on those!! OOOHHH-am I jealous!!!

I'd do some thinking/ planning first, and do an inventory also. Lucky you! I'm very happy for you. Have fun.
