Yes I am in an RV right now but will be heading home. I will quilt in it this winter when we head to RGV. I have become hopelessy addicited to quilting and finding good buys!!! :-)

I have another one to get busy on when I get home. We will be here for three nights and then back home.

Mary it is an Alco Store here in Gibson City, IL. I have been wanting some of the rulers but they are so expensive and just starting I did not want to spend a lot of money. I could not pass this up.

I didn't know Gibson City had an Alco store or I'd have been there for their 50% off sale. They're only about an hour away, we go there to the drive-in theatre.

There are still lots of material and some rulers left; at least there were when we left. We got the 50% and then the 15% for Senior citizen which is 62.
