    Whew! So glad I was not the only one who couldn't resist. lol The coupon only worked on their actual clearance section (it was a separate link from the $4.95 and 5.95 sales). They have some great sales from time to time and I've passed this one by a few times, but I just couldn't this time. Can I be sorry and happy for you at the same time that I made you go look?

    Quilters, all, I recently decided to reorganize my quilting closet. After much research on QB, I decided to wrap any fabric 1 yd. or more on comic book boards. If in excess of 5 yds., I folded and bound with ribbon. (BTW, I did attach a label stating amt. of fabric on each piece.) After 2 weeks of all it takes to reassemble 30 yrs. worth of fabric, I used (blush) over 400 of the comic book boards! P.S. I still found myself petting certain fabrics & saying "Oh, my beauty, I forgot about you...ROFL!

    I used to by fabric with no plan in mind. It was all stored in bins by color--not efficient. Then I got bookcases and comic boards and I could really see what I had. It helped with the urge to just buy for awhile. I still buy but not as much. Just have to look at my bookshelves to help resist buying more, not that it works every time. When there's a good sale, I'm lost.

    Count me in as another fabricholic. I got my fix at a garage sale. 22.5 yards for $41. All of it fabric I would pick from a store at probably close to $10 per yard. I was just proud that was all I spent.
