    Default Fabric shopping in Bangkok

    I went a little crazy, an entire store full of good quality quilting fabric (Robert Kaufman, Kona, Jinny Beyer and more). All for $1.95 (usd) a yard. The store was so packed with bolts of fabric it was hard to walk down the aisles. It was disorganised, but oh so worth it. if I lived here I'd be buying so much fabric. I handed my bag of fabrics to DH to carry - he said "wow that is heavy, our suitcases are going to weigh a lot". I smiled and said "yes, good thing you insisted on buying Business class airfare".

    What a fun shopping experience that must have been. Did you have blisters on your fingertips from feeling all the fabrics?
