Good for you! With my husband it's golf clubs AND power tools. How many does he need? Until he finds another one that looks good to him.

I am missing creams, tans, off whites, whites, grays, Just finished a quilt and used the last of each in it. What scraps I have left are already being used up in a new design for a scrappy nutral quilt. but that quilt may become a UFO for a while as of Dec.31 I am putting a stop to my fabric buying untill I use some of what I have.

When we go fabric shopping the DH always wants me to get more than I need, he also picks out fabric,(some I wonder what the heck will I ever do with it) we sure have different taste. Glad he dosen't care what I buy, as he always needs a new tool.

I am lacking some bright colorful material. I find that I have collected many florals, and materials from many of the past years. Some was given to me, some I got on clearance, great for scrappies quilts. I am lacking solid pieces of fabric. Apparently I need to work on updating my stash!

My husband asks things like that from time to time, but he keeps taking me to fabric stores to buy more. He doesn't care really.

I'm seriously short on reds that aren't Christmas themed. But I won't tell my husband that because the next time I come home with fabric, he'll ask " Did you get the red fabric that you needed?" I'll be "busted" if my bag is full of everything BUT red!
