Just today I bought the rest on the bolt, 5 1/2 yards of high quality beautiful fabric for $4.a yard on sale. This way I have enough to be a backing if that's what I want to do.
If I really like it and can afford it, I usually buy several yards. Looking at my stash, I shouldn't be buying any, but I have a hard time just walking by!!

Will I still be saying this when I go to Amarillo in a couple of weeks? LOL

Me? I never buy more than 1 yard My friends joke about how my mother bought me 10 fat quarters when I was sixteen and now 100's of small quilts and 30+ years I still have some left I love to make little quilts
