    Why is it when ever I go to a fabric store my mind is so focused on getting and looking at fabric that I forget to buy what I really wanted to there for :-D ..My fingers are itching to do a quilt using the dresden pattern and I need to get a dresden tool..Next time I go I think that I am going to write it on my hand with a permanent
    marker...

    If I don't have it written on a list, I don't remember it. This goes for grocery stores, fabric store, and so on and so on :) Oh, a house rule: If we're running low or out of something, PUT IT ON THE LIST! lol

    its a ruler/tool...I think that most may call it a ruler? But it also can be called a tool..I help hubby when he works on our cars so to me just about everything is a tool :lol:

    Let's just say I lose all sense when I walk into a fabric store and immediately I am mesmerized by all the beautiful fabrics! Hence the need for a note to jolt me back to reality. LOL
