    Default I hadn't thought about tariffs and fabric

    I just opened an email from Hancock's of Paducah. They are highlighting "tariff free fabric". I guess I need to think about how this will affect my quilting budget. Hmmm....................

    That's a great marketing feature on their part. If you want to understand the tariffs from a quilter's view Carolina Moore has a very good youtube video about it.

    it's too soon to panic. most of the price increases being blamed on tariffs are actually price gouging because the only thing that drives up sales more than sex is fear.

    i'm closing this before the political pundits pile on.

    this is NOT a fuss-o-gram.
