I spent some enjoyable time putting about $100 in my shopping cart, but there it sits - no extra money right now, but it was fun picking it out. Kind of like window shopping. :-)

To find fabric at a good price for project you have in mind it makes great sense to make the purchase. Just think what it would have cost you if you bought them one at a time at top price.

They got me for 85 (dollars, not yards! ...I wish!) The fabrics are very nice for that price. I figure it's okay to build a stash of fabs you like. Then when a project surfaces, you have fabrics you really like, not just one's that work. Am I bad???

Well considering when I was back in Canada last year and had to buy fabric for the back of the quilt I made for my niece at $18 a meter, I say if you can get fabric at that price go for it!

considering you are in Canada, the price of fabric at a quilt store or even Lens Mills is at least 12$ yard. So you did good.
don't forget to show us your quilt finishes.

I've always told my "eyebrow-raisers" that my quilting and sewing activities are cheaper than a psychiatrist and healthier than a bar! And I look on my fabric collection as ingredients in my pantry: cant produce much if the cupboard is bare. So it's okay!!!

Don't beat yourself up so much. You DID SAVE MONEY, and today that is major important. Besides, you bought it for a good cause, to finish quilt projects that you previously bought fabric for. Take a deep breath and think about all the money you saved. Georgette
