    My husband could never even start to keep up with all of my fabric, threads, beads, etc. etc.
    I justify it by telling myself how hard I work. (But, don't tell him)!

    I really don't think my hubby would notice if I bought a truckload of fabric. It could just go on the shelves in the sewing room with all of the other fabric and he wouldn't EVEN see it. He says he is afraid to go in there--something might jump out and get him! LOL!

    Pretty tough to distinguish old fabric from new, I'm thinking????

    This is SO us! He don't care as long as I pay the bills and we have food to eat and enough money for gas. He just told me I could go buy a $50 chair for the table he just built me for my sewing area. He might complain here and there but in the end, if I am happy, he is happy.

    He really needs to build my cutting table/storage unit now! lol

    And he won't care that I bought fabric but I do have a pile of new fabric from last week's spree. lol

    And I see I like lol a lot. <---new lol.
    Ok, I won't tell if you don't tell MY hubby that I just bought a new embroidery machine
    Knowing him, he won't even notice. It was my $ not his also.

    I bought another 15 yds today, at least. I have so much fabric I will probably have to live to 250. Doubt I will make it but, at least I will have good color choices until I go to the quilting room in the sky.
