The Gsons will need clothing more than another quilt, so it will be clothing that I will be stocking up on. New baby is coming tomorrow, so I will buy for him..already have enough sweats to get the boys though High School.....will add as needed on other clothing items. Socks are a great idean and plan to do PJ's for Christmas along with boxer shorts and gleece items.

Did you know another way the price of fabric is going up is that the 45" fabric is shrinking to 40"? The owner of my LQS said there is one line of fabric she can't stock any more due to the rising prices. I have enough fabric to last my life time, but that doesn't mean I don't/won't want any more. :lol:

the quilt shops near me are charging $9.50-11 per yard. I'm not buying much, trying to use more from my stash.
I don't have my play money job anymore, so I don't feel good about buying fabric when I already have a large stash
to choose from.

MY LOCAL QUILT SHOP HAS BEEN RAISING PRICES 25 TO 50 CENTS PER SEASON. I JUST CAN'T BELIVE HOW IT KEEPS GOING UP.I'M SPOLID TOO AS I LOVE THE NORTHCOTT, SOUTHSEAS, MICHAEL MILLER WILMINGTON AND ETC. IT'S JUST TO HARD AND TIME COMSUMING TO NOT USE THE NICE FABRIC. SO GUESS MY STASH WILL BE GOING DOWN A BIT TOO. I LIVE IN WA.STATE AND OUR SALES TAX IS PRETTY BAD TOO. BUT OH HOW I LOVE THE NEW FABRICS BY GREAT MFGS.I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH WILMINGTON PRINTS LATELY. PUGLOVER1
