I have doubles of a 3 1/2 inch strip die and a 6 1/2 inch triangle. I think it would cost more to mail them than it would cost if you can find them on sale.

I took my granddaughter shopping for fabric for a quilt that she wants to make for her godmother. About a week after we went shopping I discovered that I actually own 2 of the fabrics she selected!!!!

Guilty of double purchases too ! Bought an address book and list all books, notions (rulers) patterns and kits to try to avoid duplicate purchases. It works when you take it with you when you are shopping. Lol

I am awful with the books and magazines, I find double and triple all the time and get so mad at myself. I just bought some beautiful bird fabric last week only to find I had bought it a month ago so now I will just back a quilt with one of them.

I've been known to buy a pattern or book, then find that I already have it. The same goes with fabric, sometimes it's because I love the fabric so much I want more, or sometimes it's because I see it, love it, then forget that I already have it. Fabric I don't mind, but expensive books I do. Maybe you can sell the books online to someone who would apppreciate them.

I've had to buy a second pattern when I lost one of the pieces-comes in handy when you need 4 of the same piece. Or when pattern co. reissues pattern with different number and photo.(I made doll clothes for years)

I have some doubles of books, occasionally a magazine, and have even done rulers. This has happened even after I have cleaned up my room. LOL! Now I have to sell the books and rulers.
