Then I ponder what I saw and maybe go back another day to run in and buy it and run back out. At home, it makes a direct path from car truck to washer to dryer. Then...euphoria and ironing!<BR/><BR/>And if it can't go in the washer and dryer, I don't buy it because it would make something that could not go in the washer/dryer.

Must be a fragrance in there at least - new fabric euphoria smell.<BR/>Cracks me up too - I had 2 of those flannels in my shopping cart before deciding that I could make do with what I had. Wish now I'd gotten the brown ball one, I ran out of boy flannel last night - ended up going to a cotton - not flannel. So, is the quality good on those flannels? should I run back over to Fabric.com?Marjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08695305834402487163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-46825855520454833992007-12-23T20:19:00.000-05:002007-12-23T20:19:00.000-05:00Hi Carolyn, I think the fabric euphoria feeling yo...Hi Carolyn, I think the fabric euphoria feeling you describe is exactly why having a stash and not feeling guilty about it is so good. Back in the old days when I used to pick a project and then set out to buy the exact perfect fabric I had in my head, it was inevitably a frustrating experience. Now if I fall in love with a fabric I get it knowing that it will be perfect for something one day.AllisonChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07431369603470575306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-64890992132727644652007-12-23T14:08:00.000-05:002007-12-23T14:08:00.000-05:00Merry Christmas, and Merry Fabric Euphoria!Merry Christmas, and Merry Fabric Euphoria!Marjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950085029835332900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-60368568265738724412007-12-23T10:33:00.000-05:002007-12-23T10:33:00.000-05:00I'm convinced that it's like the Cinnabon experien...I'm convinced that it's like the Cinnabon experience - that they fabrics have some sort of chemical sprayed on them that has an effect. Even when they pack them to ship to you, they still have the same effect when you open them up.

My daughter will pull a bag out of the mailbox and say the most bored tone, "Must be more fabric again, Mom." Of course, you know this extends to anything sewing related - beads, patterns, etc.! I just love those boxes/mailers that I get. Unfortunately, my daughter doesn't get it - yet.Summersethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00364235843222794829noreply@blogger.com
