Get the material now...it's usually gone by the time you decide..been there done that too many times.

I have seen fabrics I really liked; decided to wait till payday or some other reason to procrastinate; gone back in a week or two; and it would be gone already! I am finally learning to buy it when I see it. :lol:

I always thought that it went out rather quickly until I went toWal-Mart this week. There on the shelf was a stripped fabric that I had bought several years ago to make grocery bags.
Made me wonder what warehouse wal-mart picked to clear out their storage unit.

I would buy especially if it is seasonal looking. Like really spring colors. If its a privately owned shop you might stand a chance of getting it again if you ask for it. If it is a chain it would be kind of iffy. If I see something I really like I buy at least a yard.
