You are in good company... I did the same exact thing you did... I had been drooling over a fabric... ordered from another site... only to find out they were sold out... then two days later I got the e- mail from Fabric.com... and the 20 percent off.... sure enough my fabric was in the clearance section... Mine should arrive tomorrow.

I'm going to have to go cold turkey and quit buying fabric and die cuts coz I have to pay off the new machine I just got! It's gonna hurt.

Whew! So glad I'm not the only one!
I stopped by one of our LQS just to say hello and visit [a small husband n wife shop].........uhhhhhh I left after spending $43 or there abouts.
So glad my hubby has his hobby and doesn't limit me and I don't say anything to him, but of course he doesn't see all that I come home with. LOL
He did tell me several years ago when we build my quilting studio I didn't have very much fabric on my shelves, so I've been steadily adding to them and now have to find a place to put it all. roflol........a wonderful man!

I heard you all have to pay a premium to get fabric shipped to you. What does a one pound package cost in US $$$?
