oh lord i wish i could say i stayed on budget (lol) when i go quilt shopping. last year on our shop hop for the row by row in 5 hours i spent $1000. that is the right amount of 0 believe me. to top it off as a snowbird living in arizona for the winter last year in the 5 months i was there i spent $5000 in fabric and tools. that doesn't take in the classes i took (5). i had to do some creative bookwork at the border when it came to claiming our $1600 limit.
Onebyone, I have to wonder if your quilt shop is more than doubling its wholesale price. (I used to buy wholesale). Or maybe you saw some deal they'd gotten.

Two years ago an on line store I used to purchase from went out of business and I bought 5 mystery packs of fabric, 10 one yard cuts for $20. I was very pleased with them. There were some repeats, and some of the fabrics were colors or prints that I wouldn't have thought of buying if I'd had a choice, but all of it was top quality and my stash is better for having bought it. I kind of wish I had bought more.
