You could buy me a HQ Sweet Sixteen and I'd be REAL happy!

Seriously, congrats!

I think I'd just walk into one of our local quilt shops and ask that everything in the store be delivered to my new studio------------whenever it was done! lol

If I used 5# of fabric a day, I'd still be here for next to forever.

Congratulations! It is so much fun to spend unexpected money! And what better purchase than fabric?

Lucky you! I think most of us would have done something similar.

That made me laugh GrannieAnnie - would love to live beside you just to look at all of it.

LOL - would love to. I've enjoyed seeing the posted pics of the stash of different members - it's amazing to see what they've accumulated, and I'm happy that everyone will share pictures of their quilts and that they're are so willing to help us newbies. I never knew a forum like this existed until a couple of months ago - now I'm hooked. We do have family in northeastern Indiana which we try to see a couple of times a year, AND they live close to Shipshe, so OF COURSE I have to visit the shops there - look at the fabric (buy some), drool on the quilts...

It's only overborad if you never use the fabric and go out and get even more. I love fabric stores and cann't go by one without going in. Yikes!!

I think you did a nice job of distribution with your winnings. A TRUE fabric hoarder would have spent the whole wad at JoAnn's. LOL Congrats!
