I dropped into the local Fabricland today. Then I left.
I left to go to the bank!!
They had several tables of cottons "buy 1 get 3 free" as well as some "buy 1 get 2 free".
Well now, that's my price!
So, I got 12 meters of a beautiful light yellow print that will make nice backing fabric.
I got 8 meters of a yummy brown print that will be a good neutral
I got 4 meters each of two purples, and two blues that will be going to my next niece's quilt (#5 of 10 to make)
I got a meter of the red floral that I'm using in a current project - that I'm running short of..
etc.
All in all, I got almost 35 meters of fabric, and spent $170. (including the 13% tax we pay here.)
I am a happy camper tonight!
