Oh, silks...what a great idea!

I have been looking at all of your answers. It seems quite a few of you want things besides fabric. Well, since it is just a dream idea of a question, I guess you can get anything quilt related.
Someone asked about the movie. Yes, he had to use $30 million in a month and have nothing. But then he got $300 million. (Oh, man what I could do with that) ---- Cancer Society, Heart Fund, ASPCA, Food Bank, I could go on forever. |

:) I could overspend in the time it takes to place one phone call. Here's what I would do: order all of Hoffman's 1985 batiks, all 365 of them, 15 yard bolts, at wholesale, and... well, I would actually need over $21,000, plus shipping costs and... you get the picture. And oh right, if I took 'em all home, then I'd also need to budget for another place to live!! |
Definitely worth a try!

Oh yes, I could spend that on fabric... I'd take the first flight out to Bali... and stuff a container full of batiks! |

Works for me! :-)
What do you want? The lights or the darks? The smokys or the brights? (Just please save some turquoise for me. Love that color!) |
