I got my old job back last week. And on top of that I just got a $260.00 Visa gift card for team of the year. Now quilt kit or fabric? Help me make up my mind please.

Congratulations on getting your job back!!

Hmmm, quilt kit or fabric -- how about both?? :roll: :roll:

Now, being a frugal person, I tend to think you would get much more for your dollars if you bought yardage Surely the cost of a kit includes all the precutting of fabric etc. BUT if you are wanting a treat and want all the cutting done for you then go ahead and buy a kit :D

Not much use was I???????? :lol: :lol:

I would buy fabric. More for you money and if you shop around, you can probably get enough fabric for 2 quilts for the same price as most kits.

I do have to say that connecting threads doesn't overcharge for their kits, though most places charge way to much.

WooHoo!!!!! You're employed again! What a great feeling!

How about some batting and thread- stuff you never can have enough of? And a splurge of some fabric. I say- watch out connecting threads- here she comes!

(Oh, Joann's online- get a bolt of batting- I got mine for like $165.00 before Christmas.) I figure I will get 20 quilts out of it. About 1 years worth. :)

Have fun spending it!!!!!

perfect good for you I would go jelly rolls. I like jelly rolls.

Congratulations on getting your old job back. Personally, I'd spend it on fabric or quilt related stuff I needed or use like blades versus a kit. I like to pick my own fabrics to go with whatever pattern I pick. But it's not my decision.

I would also go for the fabric. You might be able to get something on sale and get more bang for the buck! I love a bargain!

Congrats!!!!!!!!!! Buy both. :D Not any help, huh.
