fabric whoring

In addition to the computer, I have ordered samples of "cross shot" dupioni that I am interested in buying for the dress I need to make. Most of them are shades of blue but there are a couple reds in there. I'm really excited to see them. You can't really tell what color they are on screen so I wanted to handle them. Compare to what I have. So I have 6 different samples of 1/8 of a yard of fabric winging their way to me. What does one do with 1/8 of a yard of fun colored silk? :D Have fun of course.

Stitch them together and make a rockstar reusable grocery bag or three. :)

Its not even gonna be a yard. I think I'm leaning towards using the strips as decoration for something.

Is perchance a "thus" kind of word? ;p

Yes, I believe 'tis.
