    Here are some pictures of my purchases at Joann's The quilting fabric was on clearance for $1.50/yd. I got 2 snowman panels and the doggie panel for $5 each. The notions were the buy 1 get 1 free. And I am so mad, I forgot to get a matching item to go with the marking pen. Then I had an additional 10% off entire purchase so you can see by the receipt that I saved more than I spent.

    finished the bolts on most of these

    The way I look at it is that I would be buying those things eventually anyway so why not save some money on them. I even got the knitting needles for 25% off. I rarely pay full price for anything.

    Wow ... you had lots of fun! I've never used the color grabbers ... I just use a handful of regular salt into the water when I prewash the fabric. So far, so good.

    Can't wait to see what you create with all this beautiful fabric!

    I have been trying to find Color Catchers unsuccessfully so when I saw the color grabbers buy 1 get 1 free I thought I would see if they work. I am saving the black, white, and red to make a quilt sometime. $1.50 a yard couldn't be passed up.
