Why is it when I go to the fabric store to pick up some more of the green fabric I need I walk out with a bag full. Silly me, we all know why......that fabric calls to us and we can't resist. :D

This is the green I went in to find.

And then dear son says I really love this Cowboy fabric. Can you make me a quilt out of this? Who could say no.

And then I see these florals and blues I love. I have some of the pink already, but I could use more. Right. And they are all on sale. How could I resist?

Oh, and to make matters worse, I get on the Connecting Threads site when I get home and find out the Charm coupon still takes off 15% and now there is an order of three quilt kits and some tools coming my way. Pictures to follow when they get here. I'll be busy this winter. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I understand the feeling, I plan on going to the LQS just to buy 1/2 yd to use with my stash for a project, and before it is over I am writing a check for over $50!

I love all the pretties.........we can't walk out without bags of fabric because we have great imaginations and know exactly what we will do with each and ever piece of fabric we buy. We will use it in a quilt, maybe one day but never the less we know we have it for when that one day comes.
