    I haven't been to JoAnn's all week. That is a record I believe. My husband said that they will be calling to check on me soon.

    Funny thing, same thing happened to me about a week ago. Best part is that I stopped to get one little piece of backing to finish a project and came home with a whole kit and no backing!!!

    Yeah, there is always that one bolt of fabric that catches your eye, and your breath. The bad thing is, when you decide to buy that piece, you need 3 or 4 others to go with it! And we won't talk about the thread, pattern, batting and backing. Isn't it fun?!

    I cannot tell you how many times Ive done that in the fabric store- only to have to run back in to pick up what I needed in the first place..
    Oh! Been there, done that! LOL!

    There is some sort of monster that takes hold of you when you walk into a fabric store. It sees you coming and gets you. It wasn't your fault. You were attacked!
    Is there anyone here who could fight off this monster--or who would want to? Before I even go in for a spool of thread, I have to check my bank account to be sure when I check out with my $7.00 spool of thread, I can afford to pay $50.-100.00
