It's Like a Bag of Doritos.

You know when you behave, and you go weeks and weeks just buying your organic produce and the real  foods for your recipes.... then after a few months you cave, you buy a bag of Doritos.  You bring them home and because you've been deprived for so dang long,  you and your family eat the whole bag in less than two days.... you know how that happens????

 Fabric buying is like that for me.  So there I was looking at the Black Hills Quilt Show.... then there were the vendors.... So Miranda, Monster and I go cruise the merchandise.  "Lets just take a look-see."  

Started innocently enough.  Then I'm whipping out my MasterCard and Miranda and I are talking about intercepting the mail......  Our husbands don't need to see the bill.

I found some super cute Beeswax.......In the shape of a thimble and a hive.... come on!  That's so cute!

And you know how I've been collecting little snips.  Well, those shops sure did bring some cute ones!  

Then there was the fabric...... Oh the fabric.

Innocently enough I was looking for this charm pack...... FOUND IT!

 On a whim last night I started sewing up my Cuzco charm pack into disappearing nine-patch blocks... I wanted another charm pack so I could make the quilt a bit bigger.  

 I also needed one red fat quarter for my rainbow swap.... ahem..... the other three I just needed.  Ya know what I mean?

 Some cute things for I-spy collecting.

 Ahem.  Some layer cakes of this pretty Fig Tree Quilts fabric!  Just two.  

 Well then there were five yard bundles... for a bargain!  So I went to get one..

 But it was so hard to decide.

So I may or may-not have bought three bundles.

 I sure am huffing a lot as I'm writing this post.  Do I have a good reason for buying FOUR patterns?  No.  Should I need one?  Heck NO.  I hardly ever buy patterns.  I've been waiting for my love for these to fade and it hasn't so I bought them. 

And I bought a kit.  Okay?!

So I went a little crazy. That's why I should buy fabric more often at a reasonable rate so I don't screw the pooch so badly.  I'm going to pet the fabric as I put everything away before the Hubs gets home.   Lets not talk about this again K?
