Well, I bet we all have our "foolish" days, but to me buying fabric is half the fun of a quilt show, other than the quilts of course. However, I remember one year I went to two different quilt shows, not the same weekend, but I scoured all the booths looking for cat fabric, I was obsessed with finding cat fabric. I hadn't spent money on fabric in a long time, so I went a little (?) crazy, came home with fat quarters, half yards, full yards, panels, the "X" tool (which I have yet to use, but I just found it last week - we moved a year ago), and I even bought a quilt kit, something I had never done before. Have I used it all - no, but I have a 16 month old granddaughter and I know I'll use a lot in an I spy quilt for her, as well as linings for purses and totes. I'll use it eventually, and there's always the Christmas projects with the Christmas cat fabric. I'm addicted to fabric, what can I say, but I'm glad I have it now as I don't have the money to splurge like that now.
