It pays to procastinate????
Some times it really pays to procrastinate only now I'm torn as to which route to go!
I have a quilt that needs to be completed by mid June for graduation. Finally worked out my design (first time ever doing that and this one is a bit odd - a softball field). Decided I want to use various batiks for all the different elements to give a dappled 'sun lit' air to it. Haven't bought fabric one yet!
Yesterday, get a post card from my LQS giving me 20% off anything in the store for the month for my birthday! Lucky me, right? This morning, DH asks me what I'd like to do for my birthday today. Chat about heading to Baltimore, MD for some crab cakes (yum, yum, yum) but did that last year and dogs are difficult at the moment with allergy meds, etc. He has that covered. Well, how about Lancaster? He's not been there, so we're headed there in a couple of hours. He's really good about fabric shops and such, so that's where we'll be headed.
So I think I'll be picking up bunches of fabric for this quilt today at Lancaster prices and if I still need/want something local, I can get it 20% off! Does it get any better than that? I don't think so!
