Stop it, stop it Stop it. You all made me feel so much better about my stash that I just went out and bought 8 x 1/2 metre lots of the most gorgeous black and whites. On special at my LQS and as I have a 26 year old Grandson who is hinting for a quilt I just couldn't pass it up. I will add a bit of colour from my stash and hopefully make something he will love. Honestly I really was just going to buy thread. And would you believe .......I came home without the thread!

Last night I went to the garage to dig out some more halloween stuff, and I ran across a HUGE plastic tote with fabric inside of it! I m not sure how I could of forgot it was there! In side of the tote was also a small plastic zip bag that had a JAF purchace in it I forgot about! I bought it before I moved, it had thread, 2 pkgs of wavy blades (I got on sale for $3 ea, a pattern, $20, and a card to myself saying "heres a few bucks to buy some fabric in your new LQS"). So I got to go shopping in my own place, and now can go get some more! I say this is my retirement fund! We all have our own way of planning for the future, & I want to make sure I dont run out of fabric!
