I'm not usually an impulse buyer. However, during my daily lunchtime walk on Friday, I passed a fabric store that had a going out of business sign in the window, and before I knew it I was returning to my office with 16 yards of assorted fabrics. I only stopped buying when it occurred to me that I would have to carry it all back to my office and then home.
In addition, on Saturday morning when the mail came, a few basics that I had ordered on line arrived too. So, I am rolling in fabric now. What a happy situation!
Here's my loot:
Cotton for Phineas' future shirts. You can't really tellbut one is striped and the other has checks.
Camouflage denim, black twill and khaki 
Fuscia ombre satin, camo with a flower print,and the backdrop is black jersey
I have some general ideas of what some of these fabrics will be used for, but it may change. I have no idea what the ombre will become, and I am pretty excited to have it in my stash. I wish there were more hours in the day for sewing!

LOL!!!!!! I enjoyed this post..."I only stopped buying when it occurred to me that I would have to carry it all back to my office". Sounds like you made it home fine with the stash. I'm proud of you.
HA HA HA - I'm usually such a goal-oriented shopper. I was like a kid in a candy store.
