Ah yes... the case of the incredible shrinking product.

Gee. I remember when Lay's potato chips came in 1-pound bags. Now I think they are 11 or 12 ounces.

But wait. Maybe it's a good thing that the potato chip bags are smaller. Makes for a smaller binge. :oops:

All the new fabrics in my area are going for $11.39 a yard or more. I heard they might be going up to $14.00 because the Chinese are hoarding the cotton. Time to start boycotting any piece of crap from China I think.

However it didn't stop me from purchasing the most beautiful collection of Batiks yesterday. All grays with a smattering of peach in each one ending with a beautiful peachy batik to round it all out. I'll try and get a picture to upload later, spent 130 bucks on sale for $2.50 per yard. I have absolutely no idea what to do with them. I guess I need to start looking for a contemporary quilt pattern because that's what would be called for with these fabrics.
