I’ve been participating in Angela’s Fabric Diet – and all January, I was really good, and stuck to my diet.
Then I went away last weekend, and there was an LQS (well, sort of, it was only 20-30 minutes out of my way), and I try to support support local shops. So I stopped in to look around, and well, they had some Kaffe shot cottons I’d been wanting to play with, and I’m always looking for good yellows (I have ayellow bedroom, a growing appreciation of the color, and a heck of a time finding good yellow fabric), and the dots coordinate perfectly with the blue-grays I’ve been working with. Really, it was totally justified. *nods seriously*
Besides, I was on vacation – and diets don’t go on vacation, right? Too bad that justification doesn’t hold for the stack of fabric I ordered online afterwards. Oops!
How are you doing with your own fabric goals?
These look like great buys to me! Especially when you are at a LQS that isn’t near your home.
Most of my fabric buying is for a specific project, but I have to keep in mind only to buy for the next 2-3 projects – not six down the line!
