    Don't you just hate that? I forget what I came into the shop for so much that my friend's first comment now is - so what did you forget this time? LOL

    I know, the ladies at the fabric shop always say "what are you making?" and I always have to answer, "umm, nothing, I'm just buying stuff I like."

    Although I have been doing pretty good lately, I am well aware that the "fabric demons" are out there just waiting to pounce in a moment of weakness. I better find some wood to knock on...KNOCK...KNOCK...KNOCK...on head!

    We need to use blinders when we walk into a fabric store. I have gone in and actualy came out with what I needed
    without a spontaneous purchase! The next coule of months I am going to go cold turkey and not buy any fabric. Wish me luck!
