I am thinking about getting the last 5 yards because i really like the fabric and want to make sure i have enough of it. but it has actually shipped out. just got the email a bit ago about it shipping out.
am i weird for being soooo excited about this? its okay if i am because I have the fabric that i have been looking for. (squeal of happiness) anyone else get this excited?


Years ago, my sis in law and I found some black/blue/white starry fabric that is a wonderful backdrop for many other fabrics. When Wally World stopped carrying fabric, we went into a panic and went to a WW 30 miles west of us (one the still carried fabric) and ordered a full bolt. 10 yds, I think???? Never been sorry one second. Still love it for many uses.

Good score and definitely get the rest of it if it's still available.

LOL, I get that excited sometimes when I find a fabric I love even if I wasn't looking for it. Especially if it's at the thrift store or at a yard sale where I can afford to buy it!

I think that if you really love it and they have it still, I'd order it.

Your not weird, your a quilter and only people who love quilting can understand this obsession we have.

I get very excited just to buy fabric for my "someday" stash. It must be very exciting to find something you love and know exactly how you'll use it.

I am sooooooo happy!!!!! Fabric came in the mail today. I was hopeing that it would be but figured that it should get here by Saturday. Yeah!!!!!!! Already cut off the amount I think that I will need and folded and put away the other three yards. Now to bleed test it and starch then as soon as I finish piecing a baby quilt I am working on then I get to finish my dds quilt. So excited.

Not at all wierd! I tell hubby that fabric is my "drug of choice." LOL! It sure makes me happy, especially when I find just the right one.
