Seniors Have it Made!


Yesterday was senior's day at JoAnn Fabrics so a friend and I went down to Grand Forks, ND to take advantage of it. I told her I was on a fabric diet but she didn't think the pile shown above was much of a diet. Lol. The white piece at the back is extra wide backing fabric that I might dye before using. The green has some glitter and one of the browns will be a narrow border for the cross quilt. I got both because I wasn't sure which brown would suit best The other two pieces are in the pile because they were irresistible. Several of the pieces, including the wide backing, were the end of the bolt so there was an extra 50% off. For the rotary blades I used a 40% off coupon that I got in the mail, so all in all I saved quite a lot of money and had a nice day out.

It sounds like you made some grat buys! In fact, tell yourself that they were almost paying you to take it home so you HAD to...fabric diet or not! LOL
