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!!!!

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)
