Busted!

Me. I'm busted. You all busted me!

I used a gift certificate all right. Okay, so you threw in that caveat that I had to count it as stash if it was a gift cert *I* had purchased.

Sheesh ... give a gal a break, will ya!

As to what I purchased, I'll just say this -- if there's a shortage of Clermont Farms by Minick & Simpson, you'll know why.

It might not arrive this week, so I may have dispensation for another seven days. However, Kimberly emailed me yesterday. She decided just to order me a bolt of one of the fabrics. ROFLOL. Enabler!!!!!!!

But are you sure, really sure, that it really really matters where the gift cert came from? I mean, really?

(sigh) Sticklers!!

I am anxiously waiting for my tower of fq's from Clermont Farms. I got a GC in June and I've had this on order since. Once it comes then I'll be doing the yardage shopping.....oh no.....so much for my fabric diet too! This collection looks amazing though.

I have to agree with Carol - a gift certificate is a "gift" - can't count that - and if Kimberly orders you a bolt - again, can't count it. You're doing fine!

That line almost caused me to fall of the wagon!
