Yep! I also tend to buy the same fabric in different colors at different times...

Happens to me more than I like to think. Guess I really liked it !!! I usually figure it out when I clean out my sewing room and refold all the same colors together.

Yes. Or, here's another twist. DH goes to buy, and gets some "stash" fabric. I don't see it, and then later I go and also buy "stash" fabric, and when putting it away, I see he already bought it! :-)

Yes. More than once. Each time I said the same thing, "this would make a really good background fabric". Well it would but I must have about fifteen yards of it now. I was right though, it does make a great background.

Yep I have. But then when I was cleaning out my closet I realized that I had bought the same blouse twice without knowing it. ONE still had the tags on.

Done that and also have done the one where you go to put away your new fabric and fine you have the matching material for backing/front!!!!!!!

Think I am going to take picture of my stash before going out to the fabric store!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol:

You go to the store, "oh isn't that pretty!! I will get some".
Then you get home and start to put it away and see the same thing that you bought maybe last year. This has happened to me at least three times in the past couple of years.

Maybe it's Old-timers.
Are you kidding? Of course I have. More times than I want to admit.
