Jelly made me do it March 24, 2006
After reading Eilis‘ entry about her quilt I went and had a look at the KimoYES site. And bought stuff.
It’s all so beautiful I couldn’t resist! I bought some remnants and kimono pieces that were on special. I had to set my self a dollar limit so that I would stop at some point.
I have no idea what I’m going to do with most of it, other than a vague idea about making a couple of them into wall hangings or framing them.
I’m on their mailing list and I’ve bookmarked their site. I may have to take up quilting to find an excuse to keep buying their fabrics.
The only thing that saved me from ruin is that my credit card is at home. The only problem is that I’m going home after work and I have an internet connection there. Things could get seriously dangerous after that.
i often go to the site just for a thrill, even though it’s not within my budget to spend money there at the moment.
i’d like a kimono to hang on our wall. then i will feel really grown up. kristen says for most people it’s whitegoods that makes them feel grown up. we have a friend who says it’s buying your own filing cabinet that will do it. for me it would be hanging a kimono on our wall.
